Destin 2012- Random Pics

Ready to head to the pool.

Harrison was so sleepy!

They both were wore out from all the fun.  Mommy and Daddy were tired too!

I swear my kids love me.  They were over pictures.

This little boy is precious!!

Destin 2012- Beach Day

Labor Day weekend we took a trip to the beach with my parents.  If you know my Dad you know that he is a workaholic.  He never takes a vacation without working.  Even when I got married he flew to the Bahamas and wasn't even there a full 24 hours. He was there long enough for the wedding and dinner and that was about it.  Anyways, after his open heart surgery in May he has been trying to relax a little more.  His idea of trying is taking 5 weeks off work after open heart surgery (even thought the doctor said at least six) instead of just 4 like he wanted to do.  So my parent decided a nice little beach getting away with their two favorite grandchildren was just what they needed.  The insurance guy for the company my Dad runs gave us the condo to stay in and it was super nice.  The elevator took us directly to our room.  So we spent a few day down in Destin just soaking up the sun.

Harrison & Mommy

My husband is a dork :)  He loves to explore the ocean.

Harrison actually fell asleep while I was holding him in the ocean.

Lincoln went with my parents that morning to ride go carts and play arcade games.  Once he was back it was family beach time.  Motts & Potts took a nap.

Poor Harrison was over it! 

Lincoln had fun playing in the sand but them he wanted it off of him.  Maybe he just really wanted to play in the water hose.  My kids love water!

Destin 2012- Beach Pics & Ruth Chris

I was determined to get some beach pictures on this trip.  We had dinner reservations at Ruth Chris that evening so I figure a few pics before dinner would be great.

Lincoln was more interested in sliding down the big mound of sand.

Wish my brother could have made the trip down.  The picture is not complete without him.

I have heard about Ruth Chris before but never really had any desire to try it.  I am not big on trying new places and I normally eat my steak well done.  The thought of paying $50 for a steak well done makes my husband cringe.  We have been eating more steak at home lately and I have been trying it cooked at about medium well and liked it.  My Dad was dying to go and promptly made us reservations when we discovered there was one in our condo complex.  I was a little worried about taking the boys to such a nice place but they did pretty good.  I ordered a steak (medium) and it was amazing!  It was probably the best steak I have ever ate.  Christian had steak and shrimp and said it was also delicious.  I meant to take pictures of our food but I forgot. :(

Lincoln got his shirt wet when we were washing off the sand after the beach pictures.

this is how Harrison spent most of the meal.

Once my Mom finished eating she took Lincoln outside so we could eat in peace.  After dinner I walked outside to find this...

Yes, my mom was letting my two year old play in the fountain at the nicest restauranct I've ever been to.  He was having a blast!

Can you tell he gets away with pretty much anything with Motts?

Lake Winnie- 9/8/12

My Dad runs a company in Dalton, GA and he also owns the company I work for.  Therefore we all work together (most of the time) and try to help each other out.  Every year the company in Dalton has a huge company picnic at Lake Winnie.  We have missed it for the past two years because I was either pregnant or had a newborn.  We finally got to go this year.  I love going and the boys seemed to enjoy it too.

It started raining as soon as we arrived.  Mommy was prepared with some cool spiderman ponchos for the boys.  Mommy and Daddy had to go and buy some.

Don't they look cute in their ponchos?

Lake Winnie has these gigantic fish that will eat anything.  Lincoln decided to feed them a few puffs.

The look on Lincoln's face is priceless!  He wasn't sure what to think once the horse started going up and down.

Potts and Lincoln driving the old cars.

Ice Cream break!  Can you tell they loved the push ups?

Needless to say we had to do complete outfit changes after this.

This was probably Lincoln's favorite ride.

Lincoln loved spinning around.

He was all smiles on the Hopper.

How precious is this little boy?

Lincoln is looking more and more like a little boy and not a toddler :(
