Last week, we were able to spend the week in one of our favorite places, Perdido Key, FL. Brandon's parents, Carson, Brandon, and I packed up the car and began the journey. We stopped in Jackson, Mississippi for the night. Our little 3 year-old was elated to say the least. He hasn't stayed in a hotel very much so everything was exciting! The next morning we continued to our destination. The following day, we were able to pick up KK at the airport. It was so great having her along! As frequently as we have been blessed to go to the beach, the magnificance of the ocean never ceases to amaze me. Throughout the week, we witnessed many dolphins, tons of fish, cranes, pelicans, and possibly a shark. Carson loved the sand and the ocean for the first couple of days but then, decided that the pool was more his thing. He has become a little fish in the water. We are so proud of him! The boys golfed and all of us ate an abundance of yummy food. Thanks to my college roommate, we have been exposed to Lambert's (Home of the Throwed Rolls) so of course, we had to go there. Carson loved yelling, "HOT ROLL" and trying to catch one from across the room! The apple butter was delicious! We also experienced yummy seafood from the Shrimp Basket to the Gulf. To top it all off, we devoured the Key Lime pie from Publix and had a few helpings of frozen yogurt from Yogurt Plus. Most of all, it was a great time with family! Thank you Thomas' for letting us join the fun!

What fun we did have! Going to the beach is more amazing when you see it through your grandchild's eyes! Hopefully, same place, same time next year!
