We Finally Made It!

The boys actually slept really well last night and until 8am this morning. Reed couldn't figure out why we were there though!
We drove for awhile and then stopped to eat at Cracker Barrel.
The boys were hungry! And so were we.

We played for awhile outside before we were ready to get back in the van and drive.

Britton has decided he loves to climb up and down things. He thinks he can step down places like a big person though and then often falls. Most of the time he'll hold our hand thankfully though.
The rest of the trip to Gulf Shores went pretty well. The boys slept for quite a bit of it thankfully.
We finally arrived at our hotel/condos and Britton was so glad to be out of the van.
He thought the ocean looked pretty cool.
He really liked watching the kites flying through the air.

After checking in, we decided to go down to the beach.
He loved the sand!


He was covered in sand and was so happy!

I know he ate at least 3 small handfuls of sand but he just kept smiling and playing.
After all the sand, he realized the ocean was there and wanted to make sure we all realized it as well.
The Lands are staying a little way down the beach from us with Abbey's family. We were able to meet them for a little while though.

I can't wait to see the boys playing tomorrow in the sand and ocean.
Britton even decided to venture close to the ocean.
Here are his little footprints in the sand.
Brandon and I were pretty hungry at this point and decided to find a place to eat.

We decided to go to Zeke's, only it was being renovated. So, we went to the bar and grill downstairs and ate outside at the dock.
It was gorgeous outside and the food was phenomenal. I'm now sitting outside just listening to the ocean. It's so nice to be on vacation!
