Beach Week!

This week my family decided to take a much needed beach vacation to Panama City Beach, Florida.  Andrew and I were seriously starting to have beach withdrawals, so we hit the road.  We're staying at a place called SPLASH!  It's the perfect destination for families.  They have 4 pools, a lazy river, a mini water park, and a lily pad pool for babies.  They also have a "Dive-In theatre" where you can swim up at sunset and watch a movie.  There's also a world class gym and an arcade.  The place is nice!  I took a few pictures of our view yesterday.  It was pretty hazy so you can't see very far down the beach.  Here's our view to the East.
Here's a view from the 8th floor of the "Lily Pad."  Andrew LOVES to hang out here!
I managed to sneak a picture of Andrew eating Cheetos on the balcony.  
I took several pictures today and then....you guessed it....my battery died, so the camera is on the charger as we speak.  I'll try and update some pictures tomorrow.  

We're having a blast!!  I got to hear from Drew this morning, so that was nice.  He called to say hello!  I told him about all of our adventures.  He's coping, but still not liking Afghanistan, and REALLY ready to come home.  We're more than ready for him to come home too!!

Wow! That sounds like so much fun! We have had VOG and rain here, so I guess your beach is much more fun than ours now, however, we do have a little sun today, so I might sneak out this afternoon with the kids! Miss you!!!
