The Beach Trip (that ended too soon)

So, we went to the beach and it was SOOO nice! We did our best to get with all of our South Alabama buddies and eat at some of our favorite places. We still had a good week's worth to go when we left if you ask me though ;). There are a LOT of pictures...sorry, but hopefully you will enjoy!

This is Tybee and her cheese-grits grin at The Original Oyster House
She was fading fast on us at this dinner...

First day at the beach, trying to figure out the sand.

We enjoyed our balcony time during Tybee's naps

vogue...

And this is why I miss Alabama...

She was either digging in the beach bag or in a bag of goldfish most of the time.

She got much more comfortable with the sand as the trip went on.

Cobalt wins the award for the most outstanding kid's meal- $6 mahi (adult portion)with cheese grits, bravo!

Several attempts at the family photo...

It hurts a little to look at now that I am 11 or so hours away...

Hey friends, come sit in my chair...

would not take it out!

getting much more comfortable walking on the sand by herself.

We bring bags of toys to the beach and she plays with the empty power aid bottle :)

This is Clay's, "Natalie, do you see your daughter?" look.

This is Tybee's "Oh, I love it here can we stay?" look.

Sandy baby

She went out with a bang!

We stopped in Fairhope on the way out to eat at Panini Pete's.

Tybee loved the fountain by the bay, we used to go there a lot to walk the dogs before she was born. Bittersweet once again. So glad we got to spend some time there, but miss it even more now. It was lovely to spend time with my sweet girlfriends, Beverly, Cheremie, and Jessica and Clay had fun playing golf with all of his friends. Miss you much sweet home!
