Vacation Time In Pensacola!
In March we headed to Pensacola for a wonderful, relaxing week. It was so nice to spend some family time together, especially since Shaun had been traveling so much. And even better Uncle Mark and Aunt Mary came along to help out! We spent the week right at the beach and only left the condo for some groceries and one trip to the nail salon for the girls! Our days were spent playing in the sand, soaking up the sun, and swimming in the super heated pool. This was nice because the Gulf water was still a bit chilly! At night we relaxed by having yummy meals grilled by Uncle Mark and Shaun and playing cards once the kiddos went to sleep. What a perfect vacation!

Our little man couldn't get enough of the beach!
It was vacation so we had to get our nails done!
Yeah, beach toes!
Don't worry she had matching flowery fingers too.
Watching the dolphins swim by was one of our favorite parts of each morning.
This is the view we had of them from our balcony!
Uncle Mark and Aunt Mary were so much fun to have with us.
They are always good for hours of entertainment!

LOVED how soft the sand was.

Of course then Bray wanted to be buried too.
So Uncle Mark and Daddy got right back to work.

What a relaxing place to spend our week.
Trying to get a picture on the giant swing, but the sun was right behind the camera so no such luck. This is the closest I got.

Brayden discovered the sand dunes.
So of course his favorite part was trying to slide down them.
Pretty sure he could have done this all day!
Running away from the waves.
Daddy and Uncle Mark trying to keep bray from knocking down the sand castle.
This was his other favorite thing to do at the beach.
Checking out some shells we found by the shore.
Our Little Flight Attendant
I think that the best part of our vacation for Larkin was our flight home. We had the best flight attendant! He noticed what a good job Larkin had been doing and asked if she could help him with his job for a bit. Needless to say she was more than happy to help! The flight attendant even got on the intercom and introduced the newest member of their crew and then let Larkin pass out pretzels to everyone on the flight. Not only that, but after we landed he arranged for us to go up in the cockpit and have a little flying lesson from the pilot. Larkin was in heaven. We definitely love flying Southwest!!!

Don't mind this picture, I was a bit delirious on this flight with a fever and ridiculous headache.
Good thing the kids behaved!
