Who hasn't gone to Destin?

It seems like almost everyone I know has been to Destin or knows someone that has. This place is perfect for families and has the prettiest white sand and clear green waters! It gets better every time I go!

We just got back from Destin with my family on Sunday. We had such a great time and didn't want it to end! For the first time in awhile we drove to Florida, road trip style. I was a little worried about how Noah would do, since he can barely last on a 4 hour road trip to Houston! He did great though! He only got fussy a few times and it was always right when we were about to make a stop!

Anyways, Aaron and I had a blast hanging out with my family (Mom, Dad, Lindsay, Madison, and Emma). We had a very nice condo right on Miramar Beach, which made it easy for Noah's napping and eating schedule. My Dad is not a big beach person, so we had a built-in baby sitter when Noah was napping! We spent most of our days on the beach and at the pool, and a few days Aaron and my Dad played golf. The nights included some great shopping, great restaurants, miniature golf, and playing games before bedtime.

Here are some pictures from the trip:



This our condo, The Crescent. Definitely would reccommend it!



This is Noah's first encounter with wet sand. It took him a little while to get used to the water rushing up onto his feet!




Speaking of Feet!



The girls having some playtime with Noah


Aaron and Madison playing in the ocean!





Madison burrying Unkie. What a great uncle!






Noah sporting his cool sunglasses!



Me, doing a crossword!


Waiting for our table..doesn't Lindsay look thrilled?




Noah in front of a shark at The Commons.




He liked the beach better the second go-round!



Aaron looking very muscular with Noah in the pool!






This was the beach on the last day....so pretty!




Us on the last day :( His shirt says, "I swam with a shark in Destin"...too cute!
