Graham Goes to the Beach!

So last week we took off on our first family vacation!  Destin, Florida was the destination, and it did not disappoint!  We were so excited to take Graham to the beach and get a taste of the sand and water.  We made so many fun memories and had a great time just relaxing and spending time as a family.  Graham was the best traveler, it didn't phase him at all!  We flew to Panama City Beach and then had a 30 minute drive to our condo.  Graham had his own room with a pack n play waiting on him that we rented from the condo.  It worked out great!  Enjoy all of the pictures...warning...there are a ton!

 My helper while trying to pack! :)


 Riding the shuttle from the parking lot to the airport!

 Getting some energy out before boarding the plane.


My boys on the plane!  G didn't sleep at all on the way there...he just played and went back and forth between us!

 Grocery shopping!  And enjoying the fun part for him to ride in that actually faces forward!

 So excited to finally be at our condo and for vacation to begin!

 Thursday was overcast, cool, and very windy.  So we took a quick walk down the beach, went to lunch in the village, and then all took a long afternoon nap!

 Graham's first time to put his toes in the sand!  He wasn't so sure about it!


The boys enjoying some yummy seafood!

 The view from our balcony on Friday morning!








 The paci helped keep sand out of his mouth! :)

 The boys building a sand castle! :)

 G enjoying a little catnap on the beach!

 Oh I love this pic...he looks so big!

Trent took this pic coming back from the condo...that's me and Graham sitting in the sand together!

Just resting!

 G and Trent loved the carousel ride on Friday night!

Our family of 3!

 The boys enjoying some more seafood! :)

 And the sunset from our balcony!

How I got to start my morning on Saturday!  Trent so graciously offered to wait in the condo while G took his morning nap so I enjoyed a book and this view!

 Ready to play!




 Playing on Sunday morning before heading home!

 Catching a quick nap on the way to the airport!

 Waiting to board!  G wasn't feeling too great, and you can really see it in his eyes...poor baby!

 Vacation is hard work!  My boys both slept most of the flight home!

We were so blessed to be able to take this trip and take time out to just enjoy being together and watching Graham experience so many new things!  It was a trip we will never forget!
