Gulf Shores- Picture overload

 We always talk about doing an "Alfred"family trip (my mom and our family and aunt Lynnie and her family). Lots of talk and never any planning and this year we said we are doing it. Whoever can come, come and whoever can't (Kendall) you can catch it next time. After we already booked this trip the Spain trip kind of fell together and we were so glad this house was already booked and no one could back out. We searched for the perfect house : on the beach with a pool. And It was by all means perfect! Despite starting off with rain and some delays trying to get into Gulf Shores, the trip was a success. And hopefully it won't be so long before we do it again!

"Rain rain go away we want to go out and play!!"

Finally we had some nice weather and we were able to get out and play on the beach. I thought about a few ways to break this post up into smaller ones so its not picture overload. But I just went for it. It wouldn't be my blog if there weren't way to many pictures.

 There were lots of games of horseshoes played. And the horseshoes were lost in the sand a few times but we made it home with all of them. (I think)

I love this bc of her sassy little pose.

 Caleb was so excited about going to the "carnival" aka The Track.

Doesn't he look like a caged animal! I need one of these at home :)

 Some serious seashell collecting going on

Oh man I am having some major beach cravings now! I want to go back ASAP! I guess I'll have to wait until next year!
 What an awesome trip this was. I am so glad we pulled it off and that everything went so well. We except for some kinks in the beginning getting there!
