1st Family Vacation

We go on vacation every year with my family and this year we went to Destin, FL. It was so fun. The beach is beautiful and the water is clear. I wasn't sure how taking a 5 month old to the beach was going to be but it turned out pretty good.

We started our 12 hour drive at 5 on Tuesday morning. Troy, Kash, Mom, Dad, and I rode in a van that my parents rented. Marte, Rach, and the boys rode in there car. Long story short we were half way there and Marte and Rach got a flat tire so we had to stop at walmart to get the tire fixed. An hour and a half later we get back on the road. A 12 our drive turned into a 15 hour drive. Kash and the boys did really good. The last hour they were tired but did great. At 10 we got unpacked and checked into our room.

The 2nd day we hung out on the beach all day, That night my parents watched all 3 boys for us while Troy and I went on a date with Marte and Rach. It was nice to get away without a baby for dinner for once. We went to a seafood place on the beach and then we had to have desert so we went to Chili's because they have the best in the world.

The next couple of days we hung out on the beach and had a lot of family time hanging out with everyone. It was a great trip and I'm so glad we got to get away. Rach and I went para sailing it was so pretty. On Saturday the boys went deep sea fishing and all our boys caught a fish. Poor Matt and Tyler didn't.

Little things that we will not forget like the shark that swam right in between Jen and I, Jellyfish stings, and all the laughs we had. We are so blessed that our family can go away together and have a great time. Can't wait to do it again next year. Especially when Kash and Chloe are able to run around with the other kids. :)

Your pictures were fun to see. Boy, my brother looks old. (Ha! Ha! Ha!) I love you and can't wait to meet your little buckaroo. See you in just a few days! (from your long lost Aunt of the icy north.)
