A Conference At The Beach....... YAHOOO!

In September, I had a conference at the Hilton at Sandestin, so the whole family tagged along for a fun beach trip while I sat in classes most of the day. Poor me!We had a really great time, however, it was during Hurricane Ike and the beach was closed most of the time while we were there. It was unbelievably windy. I can't imagine what it would've been like where the hurricane actually was because we were about to blow away, or at least Zoey was. Anyway, Madison and Zoey had a ball playing in the pools. There were three, two outside and one inside. Zoey also had a great time playing peek-a-boo with the curtains. We got some funny pictures of her, like this one where she has fixed her own hair. Doesn't she look like Betty Rubble from the Flintstones? Vince and I have been working out, can you tell? Betcha didn't know he played the ukulele either. We couldn't resist sitting in the gigantic chair, it was really interesting to see me getting up there! Madison had fun on this trampoline thing, but said the straps were killing her legs. We were just proud of her for trying it, she's usually not very brave when it comes to things like this. We got scared for a few minutes because we couldn't find Zoey, well, here she was hiding in this sign giggling watching Madison jump.Isn't she just a cutie patootie!
We went out for dinner a few times and walked around at Baytown Wharf where we took several of these pictures. It was great, we could shop, eat, and just have fun watching our girls! One night they had a band playing and kids were playing some plastic instruments on stage with them. These videos are of Zoey and Madison that night. They are a little long, but you can skip through and see her dancing, it's too cute!

We had a really great time, sometimes you just really need to get away from reality. And for us going to the beach always does the trick, it's just not ever long enough!
