Spring Break 2007

We decided this year to head to Destin, Florida for Spring Break. This is one of our favorite vacation spots. It's what I call the mom's vacation...beach, pool, couch. (in no particular order). Robbie and I first went to Destin 15 years ago and try to make it back at least every couple of years. Oh man has it changed from that first time! Growing so fast, but still seems so quiet and peaceful.
This year, we decided to go with 3 other families. We found a big house that sleeps 21 and I do believe we maxed it out with all four of our families. We had a wonderful time. A few bumps in teh road, but nothing to crazy. Pretty typical for the number we had in our house. This vacation included the Trotter's, the Pryor's, the Thompson's and the Newton's (some of church buddies). We had a wonderful time.
We played on the beach, tried to play at the pool (long stories with that subject), the guys went golfing a couple of times, went shopping at the outlet mall and Destin Commons, ate at some wonderful restaurants, played Minature Golf, raced go-carts, bought a gallon of Dippin'Dots (another story), Dolphin Cruise, and just had an amazing time. It wasn't near as relaxing as I would have liked, but for most, it was their first time visiting Destin, so we all tried everything. Below you will see some of the pictures we took on this trip.

Our last day on the beach...at sunset.
The sun was perfect and the sand was so soft.
