Okaloosa Island

We had such a wonderful beach vacation!!! The girls were so excited about our trip and asked me everyday leading up to our vacay, "If today was the day???" They love the water and building sand castles and collecting seashells. And I love nothing more than seeing them so happy and seeing those smiling faces! And we loved that Me Me, and Logan, Emma, Aunt Lesley, and Uncle Brandon came with us! Boy did we make some memories!

We had the most amazing weather the entire time we were there and the water was so blue and clear! Scott and Brandon went snorkling a few times and even found a starfish and a couple of sand dollars. Ella Kate collected every shell she laid her eyes on and Riley loved the waves and would point to the water and say "I want to go in!!!!" We spent most of the morning at the beach and then the afternoon was spent in the pool, they all were little fishies and never wanted to get out!

We went crab hunting at night and that was so much fun! The last night we were there we found a bunch and Riley was the only one brave enough to touch the crabs, that kid is not afraid of anything!

We had a ball and were all so sad when it was time to head home. I think the kids had to say good bye to the beach and pool a million times and even had to stick their feet in the water one last time. I know how they feel, I always get sad to leave and always take one last look at the beach and take it all in to tide me over till next Summer.

Till then when we have these pictures and memories to remind us of our time-
