Destin... Day 6

 Thursday was our last day on the beach.  And it couldn't have been more perfect.  The weather was gorgeous.  Water was crystal clear and almost flat with just tiny waves.  This made perfect conditions for Eli to try boogie boarding for the first time!  He loved it!  I have a cute video of him boogie boarding I will try to upload later.  Sorry I have so many pictures I wanted to share and had a hard time deciding which ones to post.  So I posted them all!

Enjoy!

 This little boy on the right watched the bigger boys for a long time.  He wanted to join in the fun so badly!  His parents told me they were thankful for Eli and the other little boy.  Their son hated the beach until he saw the older boys playing.  Then he wanted to play just like them!  He was super cute!

 

What a perfect sunset for a PERFECT day!
 It doesn't get much better than this!

It looks as if the sun is just melting into the ocean...

 I will always remember this day of our vacation.  It couldn't have been anymore perfect.  Definitely made it hard to come home after this day!

Destin... Day 5

Here is our day in pictures...

Beach

Finding shells

Drink break

Building sand castles (Mimi built this one)

Rest time for Eli's tractors

 

Back to the beach without the men.  The men went fishing!

Knocking down the castle Mimi worked so hard to build

Pouting because he got in trouble for knocking down sand castle

 Chad caught two of the biggest fish in his life!  The men had a great time fishing!

Thanks for catching dinner boys!

Blackened redfish with a butter lime garlic sauce and baby shrimp over linguini.  One of the best meals we had all week thanks to Mom!

Destin... Day 4

Tuesday was forecasted to rain as well.  We lucked out and the rain moved out early that morning.  It was still mostly cloudy but at least it wasn't raining!  The ocean was rough so we weren't able to get in very deep.  Here are a few pictures I took that day...

Worn out and taking a break

Ready for dinner!  We went to our most favorite place in Destin, McGuire's Irish Pub.  They have hands down the BEST steak you will ever put in your mouth!  Makes my mouth water just thinking about it!

Mom and Randy

Isn't he the sweetest, most innocent looking little boy when he's sleeping???  I just love pictures of him while he's sleeping.  Makes my heart smile :)

Another fun day at the beach!
