Spring Break Adventure #1

This week is Spring Break for daddy and the kiddos. So we went on our first Spring Break Adventure to the beach for a day. We "planned" our last minute trip Friday afternoon and could not leave until Sunday after Brylee's Cheer leading competition and we had to be back Tuesday for work and baseball. We went to visit my nannie who lives there and stayed with her and went to the beach Monday. We enjoyed the sun, sand, and seafood. The weather down there was really nice... unlike here. Even though our trip was short and sweet we had a great time and it sure was nice to see the sun and enjoy some warm weather. A nice change from the flooding and cold weather we have experienced here for the last week or so.

yeah we are at the beach...

Sunday night after dinner we went to The Wharf

the kids and I rode the ferris wheel... they loved being at the top...and enjoyed some dippin dots afterwards... a beach tradition Monday after breakfast we went to the beach for about 3 hours. The kids could not grasp the concept that it was not "summer"... going to the beach in clothes perplexed them... finally when we got there and they felt the freezing cold water and realized the wind was cool... they knew why we did not have on bathing suits. However there were plenty of college kids out on the beach in the tiny winy bikinis... but i think they had some "liquid courage" to warm them up! Oh the things you do in college!!

testing the waters....

they had a great time playing in the sand and building sand castles... brylee loved filling her buckets with water and pouring it on the sand...this entertained her for hours... jackson and daddy enjoyed playing baseball...

and football...

and running around the beach... for lunch we went to eat at the hangout...After lunch we went back to the beach for a little while...

and then we went to the Trak on our way out...we rode go carts... the girls beat the boys :) and then the kids drove the kiddie carts and played video games... our last stop was Stacy's Pharmacy for ice cream...

We had tons of fun on our little mini beach vaca... stay tuned for more Spring Break Adventures!
