2 years ago we started going to Destin, Florida in May. That year was a challenging year and we just needed some family time. It was an amazing and low key trip, just what our family needed, so we have decided to do it year after year, hopefully. We just take the kids out of school for 3 days as I comment to the school staff, "Don't let school get in the way of your education." (they love it!)
This year as we were entering Destin you could see the beach out the windows. Landon started yelling, "It's snowing". We realized that to him it looked like the snow we had played in that winter, and he was too young the year before to remember the beach.
We stay at a condo, RIGHT ON THE BEACH, and since it's the off season, it is very reasonable. We go to the local Walmart and stock up on food and basically just hunker down in our condo and spend the whole day at the beach. We love to body surf, dig sand apartments and sand castles and play "sorry free" volleyball (you aren't allowed to say sorry when you make a mistake). It is such a blast, which you can see from the many pictures on this post.
This is just out our sliding glass door!
Eric's favorite place! (well..actually in the water)
We found a friend while digging our sand apartments.
