Family Beach Trip 2013

The last weekend in September, our family went to Gulf Shores for our annual BIG family trip! Here are just a few of the 5,654,235 picture that I took.  :)

Maybe my favorite picture I took, totally not planned, but the boys in the back ground is priceless!

Alec looks like he's giving will instructions!


Sis had a little trouble with her straps! ha!

Come on Kaleigh!


These two have grown up way too fast for mom!

Papa's bird kite was a hit!

Trucks in the sand never gets old!

My favorite aunt and uncle!

My and my babies!



Uncle Art and Aunt Sonya building!


The trike was SUPER fun!

Family Beach Pic!

FINALLY Kaleigh was tall enough to get a turn in the race car!  This is normally a yelling, screaming, I want to go time!  But she got her turn and LOVED it!

Turns out this goes MUCH faster with Dad pushing instead of paying!  Who  needs quarters anyhow!

My little thrill seeker!

Come on sis, I'll pull you down to the water on the boogie board!





Kaleigh LOVES the sand!



An animal rescue group brought this injured pelican to be released one afternoon right in front of the house were were staying in, it was so much fun to see it come out, stretch out its wings and take off!



We had LOTS of nature during this trip, this is a turtle's nest that was about to hatch, the turtle lady could hear the babies digging out with her stethoscope!  But, we missed the hatching, the came out two days after we left.

Alec, Dustin and Will showing off their crabs they caught on the beach!  They caught a bucket full!

Aunt Sissie let the kids help decorate cupcakes for our September birthdays that we celebrated while we were there.  You can imagine how that turned out!

And Mrs. Jeanette even let the kids help make her biscuits!

Three cousins and a movie!

Miss. Priss and her Earrings!

So, spur of the minute Saturday night, we were eating out with the Parkers and discussing earrings a little.  Kara, ended up talking Kaleigh into it and we left the restaurant and headed to Claire's!!  Sister was SOOO excited and was sitting and patiently waiting for ear number 1.  Excuse our western get up and CRAZY hair dos, we'd spend the afternoon at a cowboy party in a barn in the rain!  (If you haven't checked out the Mayo's new barn on 4th Street extension, it's a must!!  Really awesome for boy birthdays!!)


Needless to say, she really just wanted to skip Ear Number 2 but how do you turn back after going that far!! 

Showing off her new diamonds after church Sunday, even after all the fuss, Princess is so proud of her earrings!  It was so worth the screaming bloody murder so loud that then entire mall could hear!

She may be Prissy, but she NEVER turns down a change to get muddy with the boys!!  YUCK!!


Congrats Daddy!!

Dustin was promoted to CW2 a couple of weeks ago.  He had a nice little ceremony at work with his co-workers and our family.  We are so proud of all his accomplishments in the military!!

Labor Day Cell Phone Pics

Why oh why oh why won't these darn cell phone pictures rotate?  HELP!  Oh well, guess you can just rotate your head for the sideways pictures in this post!!    We spent Labor Day in Bay St Louis with Mimi and Papa and even got in a trip to the Audubon Zoo with the Parkers!


Why do my kids have on PJs in this pic and we've got on bathing suits!  No idea if this was first thing in the morning or almost bedtime! ha!

Yummy! Dustin is becoming quite the fisherman and chef!!

Sunset boat ride!


Dustin went down a day before us and caught this monster red!!  It was enough to feed a small army!

Nope, that's not Kaleigh that's Kara standing by Alec, those two sure do look alot alike, especially sideways!

Checking out the fat bunny!

Kaleigh wasn't so sure about the giant grasshoppper!




Finally got their chocolate bananas, they asked for these ALL day long!

Mimi and Papa were fostering sweet pups for a little while, so it was even more fun with Doc and Pepper around for the weekend!

Serious about their boat driving!

This is my WILD child!  She has no fear of anything!

Grandmother and Papa Don even came to visit for a day!

The usual boat launch swimming with Mimi!

Seriously, She's not scared of ANYTHING!

GET HIM Daddy!!

Helping Daddy with his catch!

Being Papa's girl!

I'm so glad Alec and Kaleigh have a love for the boat like us!

Kaleigh squeezing in a quick nap!


SILLY FACES!
