Another day in paradise!





Yesterday we hung out with Jarrett's sister and her 2 kiddos that just so happened to be vacationing a few miles down the beach. We had fun swimming and hanging out with them. We got to go to Water Color and see their house and let me just say it was GORGEOUS! We needed a break from the sun so we headed to the outlet mall in Destin then to San Destin to visit Baytowne Wharf. It was the coolest place. There were some unique shops and restaurants that are along the bay side of the Gulf of Mexico. We ate at this cool Oyster restaurant. We had some great seafood, ok, well I got a hamburger, but it was a really good hamburger. After that we went to Seaside, which is the town that the movie, "The Truman Show" was filmed in and just looked around. The kids have been exhausted at night so there is no trouble getting them to bed.

Today we went to the beach early but had to leave because of a thunderstorm but it quickly passed. We also celebrated our friend Chris's birthday today. He and Lisa are out on a birthday date right now. Nathan started having a stuffy nose yesterday and now he has an ear infection. Thankfully we packed a pharmacy with us and in it there were some antibiotic ear drops from his last one. Tomorrow we are going to Shell Island on a catamaran. We are surprising the kids with this first thing in the morning. We are hoping for good weather.

Just a funny: Last night Madelyn asked if we could eat cow utters. Where do they come up with this stuff??

I love the matchy matchy outfits. We're enjoying a break from rain, but apparently it isn't going to last long. You may need to come back to OK via boat....
