Vacay 2015

 Our vacation this summer was in Destin! It was our first big trip in out new RV! We bought an RV back in April. Dave had been wanting to upsize for a while and we were just running out of room in our old one. With the new one, we can bring friends with us now and my husband can fit in it comfortably! So, we headed out on a Friday night, in plans of just driving until we got tired. Apparantly, people that travel with RVs can sleep in WM parking lots. Sounds kind of creepy to me but that's exactly what we did! :/ We made it about half way until Dave just couldn't drive anymore. the girls went to sleep abuot 10 that night. We stopped about 1am, slept and got back on the road about 8am. The girls woke up about 9am and thought we had driven all night! A RV is DEFINITELY the way to travel. We never heard "are we there yet", "stop touching me", "I'm hot", "I'm bored"...... :)

We stayed at Camp Gulf in Destin, FL. It was SO SO SO nice. We had a great week on the beach, minus the part where Dave and Layton were racing on an obstacle course in the pool...he fell and cracked his shoulder. :( He's enjoyed a nice summer at home with the girls though!!!!!



 
We were gone during Father's Day! What a way to spend Father's Day...on the beach, relaxing! Happy Father's Day to the BEST DADDY! We really appreciate all you do for us and how much you love us!


 
Look at our sand castle!
 

 Lydia loves playing in the sand. She doesn't really enjoy the ocean water. I think there are too many unknowns in the water for her. I can sympathize with her. I kind of feel the same way!
 
 





As much as they pick on one another, they wouldn't know what to do without each other! I love this picture! :)
 




We caught lots of sand crabs one night. Lydia caugt the most and Layton caught the biggest. Poor Lydia woke up screaming about 2am that night because she was having a nightmare about crabs crawling on her!


 
We rented a car for a few days so that we could get out and explore. One day we went to this restaurant called McQuire's. It is famous for people putting $1 bills on the walls. Everywhere you looked, you seen dollars, it was crazy. The staff said there was a million and a half dollars on the walls. Of course, we added one too!


The was the kid's cheeseburger!
 




 
We had a wonderful vacation and I loved being in the RV. It was kind of cool being with our own things. And of course it's always nice to go to the beach.
