(This first paragraph was written on 5-26-07)We just got back from Destin today. We left at 4:45am last Saturday morning and drove all day to arrive in the afternoon at our very adorable beach condos. I am proud to say that I am noticebly tan(for me) and I have a tan line where I wear my ring so that's saying somethin'! Of course mom and dad were the first ones to see us and they saw me and smiled and then when Tina walked from behind the car it got a >gasp!!You're SO dark!!< I got "Aww! Your so freckly!" :( Oh well......
The weather was superb the whole time. And the water was perfect the first few days and then turned into a churning mass of killer rolling waves overnight. In fact, Julie and I decided to take a chance at swimming/tumbling at one point, and Julie got caught up in a wave that sent her spiraling towards the shore like a tube sock on the hardcore wash cycle. She lived though, so that's good. :D
I'm happy to say, that I kept with the tradition of getting sick on vacation and managed to pick up a fabulous cold while I was there. Grrrr....
The pictures....top left - Our group(without Julie, B, and Lauren)leaving the Lucky Snapper where we had a yummy dinner.
top middle - Me at Fudpuckers where everyone at our table signed and dated it. Mine says MOOSE and I put the date and my initials next to it.
bottom left - shopping day in front of the fountain
bottom right - It's Tina and I in front of Bass Pro Shop. But hello, I had to have our picture taken in front of the "Hunters" part! :) We both look like goobers and I apparently wanted to make sure everyone knew why we were taking the picture, what with the pointing and all.(what a nerd) Haha
So there you have it. May has been one crazy month. Beale Street Music Fest was the first weekend as I have told you about. The next weekend was the party in Baton Rouge. And at the house we were staying at for the party, we were able to have some good ol' redneck fun shooting cans in a pond and throwing hatchets at a stump(that was a hoot) And then there was Florida! So no one ask me to do anything at least until July, cuz I'm poor as Job's turkey....Arfarf. But ain't it all worth it when I had such a fabulous time!
