Last week, Addy & I joined my mom, dad and sister for a week at the beach! My aunt Lynne and Bob were finishing up their vacation so we were glad to get to visit with them on Monday and Tuesday before they headed home! Courtney came down after work on Thursday and we met up with Mia & Pop in Destin Friday night for dinner! SO, needless to say, we got to spend time with lots of family!! These pictures are somewhat out of order... blogger didn't want me to combine iPhone pictures plus pictures from two cameras into one blog post! Oh, and p.s. this might be long and boring if you are not one of the people named above :)

| Monday night we ate dinner at Capt. Anderson's. It was delicious!! |
 |
| Lynne & Bob left late Tuesday so we saw them for most of the day... Addy watched Bob put out the flags (an American flag and an Alabama flag!), Lynne read books with Addy and this was the great view we had just off the deck... |
 |
| Our normal schedule at the beach is to go out mid morning and play until lunch, take a nap and then go back out until dinner. |
Addy looks so big to me compared to last year...

Friday was a dreary day (but who cares because we were at the beach, right??) so we drove over to Destin and shopped a little before meeting up at Captain Dave's for supper - they have the best crab claws! And I have never ordered anything I didn't like!
 |
| We always sit guys vs. girls... it's just easier that way! |
We tried to get pictures on the deck after dinner but the wind was blowing and we all had crazy hair.
 |
| After supper, Mia & Pop took Addy to the mall to ride the train! They also picked out some new "big girl panties" for Julie at the build a bear store! Courtney and I got in an hour of shopping before we picked Addy up and headed back to Panama City! |
 |
| Before going to Pier Park our last night... I love sister pics! |
 |
| We saved the carousel for last... Saturday night we ordered take out from Bayou Bill's so we could maximize our time on the beach and we all got quick showers and went down the road to Pier Park. We had so much fun! Addy rode the carousel twice (once with JJ, once with Daddy Jim) and she rode the balloon ride with KK (whew!). She also got a princess crown painted on her forehead (looks like a sunburn in these pictures!). The line was too long or we might've had some takers for the ferris wheel. Then we all walked to Kilwin's for ice cream! |
 |
| I thought this was a cute picture! |
 |
| Saturday beach fun... built sand castles, looked for mussels in the sand, walked on the beach... |
 |
| I had to put this one so we could remember that although Addy LOVES going to the beach, she can be a tad particular about things... sand in the bathing suit is one of her pet peeves and it is a day ruiner!!! Unless you have some chex mix in the bag! |
 |
| These were from Tuesday... the water was BEAUTIFUL that day (seaweed came later in the week). |
 |
| Wednesday we went to the park at Wild Heron. Mom, KK and Addy were swinging together! |
 |
| Thomas Donut Shop is close to where we stay and we waited in line 45 minutes on Friday morning to get a dozen donuts! They did not disappoint... we went back Sunday! Our favorites were powdered (Addy), apple (me), chocolate (Mom), key lime (Dad), blueberry (Courtney) and red velvet (I think, KK)... a good vacation treat! |
