Orange Beach

These last two weeks have been a whirlwind of fun and we have a couple days to recup at home before heading off on our last leg of our 3 week adventure.To start it off the kids and I headed down to Orange Beach to meet Papa K, KK, KNae and Uncle Flash. I was a little nervous because up until that point my longest drive with the kids alone was 6 hours. They usually do great and we always have made it in one piece but this would be a new record. With a couple stops for diaper changes, gas and food we made it to and from Orange Beach in about 7- 7 1/2 hours. I have to say taking two kids 2 and 1 to the beach without Daddy, is a totally different beach experience then I've ever had. Despite wearing Mommy out, we had a great time.
At one point during the drive, I saw this little monkey flipped all the way around in her seat.
Seriously, they both fell asleep with about 30 minutes left in the trip.
We finally made it and I had 2 really excited kiddos! They couldn't wait to get on that beach!
The puddle on the balcony bought me a little bit of time before our first adventure in the sand.
It sure didn't take long before she was eating fistfuls of sand!
Here are some fun on the beach pictures:
Yes it was empty
