Florida

While in Georgia we took a trip down to Florida to Destin. It's on the Gulf! We loved it! We went with my mom, sister Ashley, her son Ashton, LaRon, and her kids Saylor and Hayden, my niece Roxanne and her son Keller, and my sister Lynette. Hartman was the only guy so he loved that :) We stayed at a beach house and went to the beach every day! The kids loved playing in the beautiful white sandy beaches, and Isabella really enjoyed surfing. She called herself a surfer girl! They also enjoyed some awesome rainstorms, since they never see rain in Vegas. They asked to play in the rain one day with their umbrellas. I also celebrated my 33rd birthday while down there. Hartman and I managed to sneak off for a nice seafood dinner on the beach for my b-day! Hartman got a metal detector and his dream came true of using it at the beach. He found a toy car for Hayden :) We spent some time down at Seaside a cute little town on the beach where the Truman Show was filmed. It's a really nice family place and fun for kids! It was great! I missed going to the beach in Florida. To me the gulf has the prettiest beaches and clearest water ever! We had a great time to spend with our family!

Within 5 minutes of arriving at the beach, Bella got stung by a jellyfish. You can see it in her face here. I felt so bad for her. She cried for about 5 minutes and there were some red marks on her hand, but quickly she was off to play again
Bella was having fun again in no time
Ava always on the go
Sofia loved covering herself in Sand


Isabella and Sofia kept pretending they were washed ashore and wanted to us to figure out if they were humans or mermaids
