Beach - Day 1

~Gulf Shores~

Well, we set off for another adventure, June 19th at 4:45 in the morning...anxious to get to the beach! We were all excited and everyone traveled well. Gregg's back hurt a bit, but nothing a few days of the beach could not fix! We truly had the best time and could not have asked for a more perfect 7 days! Kinsley enjoyed herself and loved being with everyone at the beach.

Kinsley watching her movie and eating a snack in the car....Talking about the beach on the way down there!

We hit the ocean by 1, and are ready to enjoy our day at the beach.

Gregg points out some clams to Kinsley. She was amazed at all the creatures and of course wanted to touch them all!

Found a crab!

Checking out something else.

Making a sand Castle...

I could not handle the straps on the top anymore - so I was trying to fix them so they would not fall....Guess, that is what happens when you buy a bathing suit for $1.50~

Ready to hit the waves!

Back to playing in the sand. She enjoyed the beach so much and believe it or not played very well. I thought I would be tired and warn out from chasing her all over the place, but she basically stayed right there - playing and catching things.

Making another sand castle.

Joe showing her how to catch Fish! (She was a bit better than he was) hehe

Bringing in their catches....She even caught Jelly Fish....YUCK! She would say, I caught a Jelly Fish....we did not believe her, and then low and behold, there it was in her net! luckily, it did not have tentacles so it could not hurt her.

Bebe and Kinsley enjoyed the view!

A big handy bucket to catch fish and for Kinsley to wash off her hands, feet and mostly any part of her body!

Playing with her watering can, tongue out to get the job done right!

Snack time...Her favorite activity on the beach.

More snacks!

Snack in hand, haha! This was our joke...she would eat for an hour. She would look for the cooler and say, "Where's my 'whunch'?"


Kinsley is a little fish and we went back and forth between the beach and the pool. The Pool was on the ocean, and it was so nice to sit by the pool and watch her swim! She never wanted to get out!

We would come in around 3, and put her down for a nap, and then I would get ready, and then get her ready about an hour later...Since we were all of schedules, she stayed up to about 11, every night...but hey, it's vacation and we had a blast! Here we are heading to Godfather's Pizza, we go there the first night that we arrive and then head to the grocery store....Can't break traditions!

The view from our balcony ....

Kinsley in her big girl bed (air mattress) She loved sleeping on it, until about 5am...then she climbed in bed with us.

All tired, and ready for another day at the beach....
