Last night in Destin

Beau and Mary Bratton before dinner on our last night in Destin























Since Beau wouldn't cooperation - I got some cute pictures of Mary Bratton.




















My sweeet girl!

























This is the best picture of Beau. This is what he does! He smiles all of the time because he is always getting into something and he is so happy about it. He was in daddy mode during Destin. He is going to be sad when he wakes up tomorrow morning and his daddy is back at work. We went to eat at Sunset Charlie's during our last night in Destin. It was really good.

This was from our very last day in Destin.
























Beau and Mommy on the beach!




















Does anyone see anything wrong with this picture?? The last day in Destin we went to the beach and there were 2 red flags up. Absolutely no swimming in the ocean. We decided that we would go and just put up the tent. First of all - just look at all of our stuff to try to make it through the day at the beach with 2 kids. It was hard from the beginning - loading all of that stuff down there and putting it up. Not to mention the wind blowing so hard and trying to blow all of our stuff away. About 15 minutes into it our tent broke. So Tal decided that we can still make it through the day if we just lower the tent. We looked like midgits under this little tent. No offense to small people anywhere .. but it was just not the most comfortable thing for us walking under a tent bending over. It ended up being such a great day. Beau fell asleep and Mary Bratton had so much fun playing in the sand. I got to lay out and read my People magazine ( i know... complete trash - but I love it) and just relax!

Boat Tours




















We had ALOT of sun for fair skinned little babies (and husbands) so we decided today to go on a glass bottom boat tour. The first half of the tour was so much fun. We had dolphins dancing all around us - it was really amazing. There was a little baby dolphin swimming with her mommy. IT was so sweet - so glad Mary Bratton got to see it. Mary Bratton saw a movie with a dolphin talking to a little boy and wanted to know if the dolphins might talk to her. Her little weak stomach didnt' let her enjoy the whole tour. She said that she is allergic to big waves and to curvy roads (she gets car sick a lot too)















Beau has started doing this tongue thing



















Dolphins up close!

























Uh oh! Little boys already looking at big toys!

Beau took a little nap. I have wrinkles! :(

Tal and Mary Bratton both get motion sickness. They made it about 20 minutes into the tour :( and then didn't feel so good!

This is Beau's first time to the beach. He loved it until he started rubbing sand in his eyes!















































"enough of the sand... I'm going to check out this big ocean"

























He crawled straight in. NO fear.

Beau loves the water! He already likes to go under water. Mary Bratton is 4 and still doesn't go under.























'The Richies' - Napping at the pool
























This was the very first hour we were here. We found Mary Bratton on the balcony like this.





















I love where we are staying. Huge zero entrance pool. It is great!
