Vacation






Well we have been going here lately alot. We have been so grateful to do all these things. We just got back from vacation in Gulf Shores for a week. We had a blast. It was so relaxing. We started driving down on friday right after work. We stopped in hattisburg Alabama. I was about a 6 hour drive there. We stayed the night in a hotel and got up early and started to drive three more hours to Gulf Shores. We arrived about 12 in gulf shores and went and got out keys the condo. Once we got there and fought our condo but realized we are going to have to bring our luggage up four flights of stairs. No elevator. It was so fun. But we got it all unloaded. Our condo was right on the beach and it was so nice. We arrived and we did an online grocery shopping and we we got there our groceries were already in the refrigerator and in the cabinets for us. We went straight down to the beach and set our chairs up so we could leave them there all week. We basically stayed out on the beach all week long. We met a family from Louisville and hung out with them all week and nights. They brought the game bago. It is kinda like hourse shoes but it is two boards with a hole in the middle and you toss bags filled with beans and try to make it into the hole. If you land in the hole you get three points and if you land on the board then you get one point. Me and Bj teamed up the first day and we never lost a game. Then we teamed up the last day and never got beat again. We had to call them hogs after that. The family also made their own wine. That the soooo good wine. It was cranberry and very sweet. Bj made breakfast for me 3 mornings and then we went out to eat. We ate out at the oyster house. It was very good. We also ate out at Lamberts. Where they throw rolls at you. Also bj found out that seaguls can catch food it the air as they fly. Bj was feeding all the seaguls and we saw one with a broken leg. We both got really really dark and love that. We also saw dalphins three mornings. We also went crab hunting at night and saw 20 sand crabs in one night. That was really fun. We had a great time together and it was nice to get away from all the hetic stuff back at home. Drake and Buddy got left at home while we were gone. My mother in law came and fed them every day and also fed them treats as well. Needless to say they wanted treats more than their dog food.


We arrived home on friday about 5:30 and then we went to the lake in hot springs on saturday at 9:30. Bj's family was down this weekend and we went down there and spent time with them.

Our other exciting news is we just bought a boat. We are really exicted about that. It is a yamaha jet boat that seats 7 people. It has a canopy and a pylone so we can wake board. We werent going to get it because we figured we needed to save our money for a baby but we also have wanted a boat. A baby is not here yet so we decided on a boat. If a baby arrives soon then we will be very joyous for two things.

Here are some pics from our vacation.
