Back Home...

We just got back from our vacation to Gulf Shores last night. We went with my moms side of the family, ate lots of good food and had a great time. I highly recommend eating at Bahama Bobs, the Oyster House, Lu Lu's and Boudreauxs' Seafood. The girls had fun shopping and laying out on the beach while the boys enjoyed golf and deep sea fishing.

Allie was a very good baby...she just loves being outside and who wouldn't love the beach:) I go back to work on Monday and feel real sorry for Ruth, our babysitter, Allie was played with/held all week!! Hopefully she adjusts well!! I think it will be harder for me than her!

Some things we learned on vacation:

• Jellyfish do sting
• Make sure you have your ID if you are going to The Hangout
• Dramamine does calm a person down
• Waves can/do knock you down
• Cell phones don't float
  
• Karaoking with strangers can be fun
• Girls can deep sea fish too!
• My grandparents can stay up past midnight
• A dry docked battleship can still make a person nauseous
• Parasailing is not as scary as it looks
• Bouncy seats are lifesavers on the beach
• The food isn't good unless Ed has it on his shirt!!

Thanks everyone for making our first family vacation a memorable one!!
