Girls, Girls, Girls.......and then there was Drew!

Every year the family takes a trip to Gulf Shores, Alabama. This year we decided to leave the men at home and enjoy a little girl time. We enjoyed time in the sun, a little shopping in Foley and, of course, some good food! Our first day started out a little gloomy......

............but rain clouds can't keep this clan down for long. If you can't sit on the beach the next best thing is............the pool. Drew and Halaina enjoyed swimming and playing in the pool with LOTS of supervision. Eventually, the sun resurfaced from behind the clouds and we resumed our sun bathing.

The following day was beautiful so we ventured back to the beach for a little fun in the sun! If I am not mistaken, this was Drew and Halaina's first trip to the beach so it was a new and wonderous adventure. I, of course, was taking plenty of pictures to capture these special moments. Drew had a lot of fun "jumping the waves" or rather giving Brittany an arm workout. LOL! I love the look on Drew's face in this one........

Priceless............

For some reason Halaina insisted on walking in the oppsosite direction from our spot in the sand. So I got plenty of pictures of the back of Halaina and Kelley.

And can I just say........What a face! I think Halaina was a little tired of being in the hot sun. Too cute!!

I got so many great pictures of Drew that it is hard to pick just one! He was the only male lucky enough (though the guys most likely would not agree with the "lucky" part) that got to spend the weekend with us girls. He is just too cute and I had so much fun playing with him in pool and on the beach. I guess with three nephews of my own I relate to little boys much better than girls. Maybe one day there will be another little girl in the family.

I certainly hope that everyone had a good time on our trip. I certainly did (inspite of the terrible crick I had in my neck the whole time)! I did notice one thing when viewing all of the pictures from our beach trip (over 350 pics). I was not in a single picture!!!!!! It is almost like I wasn't even there..............

Well...............someone had to take the pictures, right?!?!?!?! At least I have my memories, for now anyway! I am notorious for forgetting things! All in all, it was another great trip to Gulf Shores. Maybe next time I will make the cut. LOL!! XOXO
