If three beach trips in a month's time won't spoil you, I don't know what will! They were three good beach trips, though... one with a couple of old friends, one with a new set of friends, and one with my family. I feel so blessed to have all these people in my life!
Orange Beach was the site of the Compton family vacay. Saturday to Saturday of nothing but rest and relaxation!
My favorite nephew, Will, was a little tike when we went to the beach last, so this was a whole new adventure for him (skipped the beach last year and went on a cruise instead). I think the beach was a hit for him, especially with BIG floats and beach toys!
It's hard to believe this is the same little boy (with the same little Tonka truck)!
Sand and sun make a little boy thirsty!
But on to Will's favorite part(s) of the trip: the 32 holes of golf he played.
Control... you've gotta have control!
And you may have to blow off some steam by beating a few sharks over the head...
I'm not sure who had more fun--the little bit or the big kids!
Will's first crab hunting excursion was a hit, too! We weighed in more than 15 crabs!
Of course, the most fun part was watching Will mock everyone else's hysteria, as he "found one, found one!!"
B and Pony (rocking some beverage advertisements?? merely a coincidence!)
Sweet little boy--he'll be a big brother soon!
Since one round of putt-putt wasn't enough, we went back for another...
And of course, another few rounds of air hockey...
We went to play early the first night, so the crowd wasn't too bad, but the second night really tested Will's patience. He had to wait for the group in front of us to finish before he could play, and patience is not in his genetic code, but he was such a good sport. Still, he only made it through 14 holes until he was too sleepy to go on. He relinquished his ball to the alligator in the pedal boat pond. :)
And after all that fun, everybody needs a little rest!
Yay for a fun family vacay! Can't wait to see how the next family vacation unfolds!
