FLA Vaca


Today was my first day back to work after a week in Florida. Last Sunday, my family (dad, mom, Andy, and his fiance) drove down to Seagrove Beach, Florida - near Destin on the Gulf. We rented a small house on the beach and it was incredible. We had such a good time relaxing in the ocean and in the pool. This was my 3rd trip to that part of Florida so I knew how beautiful it was, but it Brad's first. Luckily, there was no oil from the big spill either.

Throughout the week we relaxed mainly. Brad and I rented bikes and rode them into the very nearby town of Seaside which is stinking adorable with all the cute cottages. We also went out to eat a couple of times and of course did some local shopping. One night we played putt-putt too. It was so relaxing!

I said relaxing like 3 times.. here is me relaxing.



I took like 300 pictures in 1 week. SO here are a ton of pics....

Brad and my favorite spot these blue chairs that looked over the little cliff to the nice beach.

The view from those chairs...
Our cute little orange beach house for the week.


the walkway down to the beach from our backyard.This place had the coolest bathroom. They wallpapered New Yorker Magazine covers on the wall.
Some peeps pics..



a really cute picture of my hubby that I took.


We rode bikes about a mile to the cutest town, Seaside Beach. Among pastel painted beach cottages, there are a bunch of Vintage Airstreams that are juice bars, a BBQ joint, shaved ice, a cocktail bar, and of course a cupcake shop. Brad and I mentioned a couple months ago about wanting to buy one of these and it was so cool to see one in person!
Sheesh ... I know that was a ton of pictures. Sorry all.

P.S. Chrissie I am working on Leah's present. Sorry it wasn't the first one there like Elijah's :(
