WE MADE IT!

We made it to Seacrest, Florida and it is beautiful. We arrived around 2:30 and couldn't check into our house until 4:00 so we drove around looking for a surf shop. We found one in Panama City at this new shopping area which looked really cool. If it rains we may go there and spend some more time. The kids all picked out new boogie boards then we were on our way to the grocery store. I am glad we had a list and had done some pre-planning. There were a lot of people just walking around saying, "So what do you think we should make this week?" I wish I could operate that way but I just need to be a little more organized than that.
We got the last 2 packages of hot dog buns. I guess we aren't the only ones planning on cooking out.

Our house is really nice but the guys aren't too happy that the kitchen is upstairs. They had to lug coolers, groceries and cases of pop up the stairs and that's when the grumbling started. They wished we had rented the one story we did last time. Maybe we will just let them do all the planning next time.

We headed down to the beach before dinner and the kids had a ball. There were pretty good waves and the kids loved jumping in them. We found a blue button jelly fish that was really cool looking. Luckily they don't sting. Our house is right next to the pool so we let the kids take a quick dip before dinner. They are exhausted and looking forward to a day with no car rides and a lot of time for swimming.
