#taggtrip2017

#taggtrip2017 was a BLAST!!

We've been saving money all year for this big trip and all the kids asked for vacation money for Christmas.  We planned and prepped and got respite care for the older foster kiddos.  This was our first big family vacation and everyone was super excited. 

We hit the road for Destin early Saturday morning and drove straight through.  We found our condos and settled in and unpacked and re-united with Daddy since he'd been gone on business for a week and met us there.  

Next morning we hit the beach!!  It was just across the street and easy to go back and forth.  Look how pretty the sand is. 

Sand castle building is kinda hard. 

The waves were crazy the whole time.  But my kids thought it made it more fun. 

It was a week of shell hunting, ocean play, sand building, swimming, shopping, relaxing, and sleeping in.  Our condo had a pool and most of the time we went back and forth between the pool and the ocean. 

As an early anniversary present our kids bought us a deep sea fishing trip.  SOOO FUN!!  I baited my own hook and caught 2 fish at the same time TWICE!  We caught a lot of fish that day and G'ma has them ready to cook up for us soon.  

We had 2 condos that were absolutely perfect.  Clean and spacious with everything we needed. 

We definitely want to go back there next year. 

I can't wait!
