A water filled weekend

We went to the Beach Sat. The day started off with some friends coming over to go swimming. And then Scott got home about noon and he didn't have a P.M. load so we had the rest of the day to be together. Our friends had left and I convinced Scott instead of doing house work lets go play at the beach. It was not hard to convince him to go play.
We went to Mexico Beach. I love the beaches in the Gulf. Nothing compares to them. I grew up on California beaches and I don't think I can ever go back to those cold waters and dirty sand. The gulf has the whitest sand. It's so beautiful.

Kaydee had fun. She was O.K. with the water as long as she had a shell in her hand to distract her. Kaydee loves water but as for all kids the beach takes some getting use to. This was the funniest thing. She REFUSED to touch the sand with her feet. We would put her feet down in the sand and she would instantly pull her legs up as high as possible. And she would never leave the blanket. She would go to the edge and touch the sand slightly with her fingers nad then retreat to the saftey of the blanket. With thayne he loved the Beach from day one and the sand. he didn't care.

This is me. behind the camera
Thayne loved this. Scott would dig such a deep hole and Thayne loved working his way out.

For dinner Scott cooked up some fresh sweet corn in the sea water. I remember my Dad talking about how they use to do that all the time. After trying it I understatd why, it was really good. Of course we can't do open flames so we made do with our emergency kit burner.





It kept Kaydee quiet.





This picture is so darn cute it had to be in here. And I had to show my Mom the cute outfit.



I was bored and wrote on their feet. They wiggled so much it was fun and Dad loved seeing it.



Only in the south do you see a wagon train coming down the road for a joy ride. No parades just a fun day out they said. This is right infront of our house.



Scott flies this plane this year and Thayne hasn't gotten to be in it. He was excited to finally beable to sit in it with Dad.
To end our weekend on Sunday a friend invited us to come play in the creek. Well he has a bubbling spring to swim in. He had a rope swing and just a fun refreshing way to finish up our weekend. so the pool, the beach and a rope swing in the creek. A wet weekend. I forgot my camera so there are no pic. on the rope swing.

All that talk of beaches and rope swings makes me second guess our Vegas decision... and why are we here again?

Looks like tons of fun!
