Orange Beach 2013

We had so much fun on our family vacation to Orange Beach this year. All of us road tripping brought back memories of when we were younger. Kinley was such a trooper and really was a great traveler......thanks to IPads and lots of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Little Einsteins. We stayed in an awesome Beach Condo at The Turquoise Place. So many memories were made and I look forward to more fun family vacays!




Lets rock n roll!




The Griswald Family vacation may begin!








Swimming with Grumpy




Ready for more swimming








Going to check out the water with Daddy before dinner




Beach Babe




First trip to the beach. She's not a fan of sand so this was very short lived which I'm kinda glad because I love looking at the beach but I'd much rather be by a pool. :)




Parasailing....they actually LOVED it!








Dad just being Dad!!!







Kevin telling me to open my eyes!




Still on our way up to the sky and praying very hard!

I HATED every single minute my feet were off the boat! I never opened my eyes and prayed the whole time I was up there....Kevin enjoyed the scenery.....one and done for this girl!!!!

Old Macdonald's Farm

Monday K and I made our way to Old Macdonald's Farm for a fun day. K is so into any type of animal these days so she had a complete blast.....especially when she got to ride the "neigh neigh" and feed the "moo moo!"




The overly friendly deer that snatched our bag of food






















At last....her favorite....the Moo

Too close to home

Many times things happen in the world that are tragic, but there are no ties to it! The events that occurred in Oklahoma hit a little too close to home! The events in Oklahoma are just unimaginable! Not only do our grandparents live there, but so many of my dear college friends live right in the area of devastation. So many thoughts and prayers of safety go out to all of them!








In times like these I really stop and reflect on just how thankful I am for my family and each day god gives us each other. Every day is a precious gift. Tell your loved ones every chance you get you love them! I love every minute with these gifts in my life.....

Maroon and White Game

I decided I needed to start getting caught up on the blog! These are pics that are from my phone that got sent to me. I was unable to attend the A&M Spring Game, so Grumpy, KK, Kevin, and Kinley packed up and headed to College Station for a fun filled day! To say Kinley had a blast would be an understatement. Kristi took awesome pics on my camera which Ill be posting.








"Hi I'm Grace what's your name?"




New friend Grace! So sweet!




My Grumpy buys me as much Kettle Corn as I want! :)

BLUEBONNETS

I love Texas for so many reasons....one of them is the beautiful Bluebonnets in the Spring. We have started a tradition, which started last year when Kinley was 6 months old....taking Bluebonnet pics! This year Kinleys 18 months old in the Bluebonnets.
