2010 has been a difficult year for our family, so my parents were gracious enough to invite us all to spend some much needed family time in Santa Rosa Beach. It was beautiful. The location is great - just minutes from San Destin and Seaside, and very close to all the shopping/eating in Destin as well. The house was awesome with plenty of space and had it's own pool so even when babies when down for naps, we could still enjoy the sunshine and water. We even had a shrimp boil one night by the pool! Vacations have certainly changed since the kiddos came along (there were 4 kids under the age of 4!)... in fact, our little crumb cruncher woke up several mornings by 6:30am and had no trouble waking up the rest of the crowd! But, regardless of the early mornings, it was a great time to spend with family. We missed Mills for sure, but I have a feeling every vacation we take as a family we will wish he was with us!
Parker's first time to the beach was when he was 2 months old, so this was a totally different experence! He loved the pool, the ocean, even the sand. All of the kids did great!
I have so many pictures that I decided to do a slideshow version of most of them, if you want to take a look...
