Our family got to go to Destin, FL for vacation a couple of weeks ago. Matt and I went on our own in 2008. We love the sugar white beach there so much! What is it about just staring at and listening to the ocean that can calm our senses? Matt really needed a break and an escape from it all. He has been working so hard and it's really hard for him to turn off his "work brain" each evening. It was really nice to get away with him. The Gilbert side of our family was able to join us. We all split a condo and stayed in the Mediterranea complex. We loved it! It had 2 king beds and 2 1/2 baths. Plenty of space for us all. Lauren and Zac live in Mobile and were back and forth. My dad also left for business for a few days. The boys had a deep sea fishing expedition and and caught us a ton of yummy fish. We took it to Fisherman's Wharf that night and let them cook it for us. It was so delicious! We like to eat breakfast and lunch at the condo and then go out for dinner each evening. Some of our favorite places are The Donut Hole, The Crab Trap, Pompano Joe's, and Louisiana Lagniappe. We definitely ate well. Matt and I ran each morning and had a built in baby sitter in our Memommy! It's crazy how humid it is there in the morning. Get ready for another picture overload!
