Gulf Shores!!

This past week Kirk and I went to Gulf Shores with my family. We drove down to El Dorado Friday night after work and got up early for the 8 hour drive on Saturday morning. We had way too much fun!!! Kirk and dad played golf 3 times and mom, Sara, and I spent most of our time lounging on the beach and reading. It was so relaxing!! We did make time for one day trip to the outlet mall which was wonderful! There were a ton of shops and we got lots of great deals. However, I think McCoy got more than anyone!!!
We stayed in a condo, so most nights we cooked dinner and watched movies. In the mornings, we slept in and then the girls would take a walk on the beach. The weather was perfect and the beach was gorgeous!

Dad has a few more pics that he's going to send me that I plan to add. A really good one of the whole family!!!

We got back to El Dorado on Saturday afternoon and found a little surprise. A tiny kitten had shown up and he was so skinny!! He thought their dog, Sebastian, was his mama so he followed him everywhere. We cooked out Saturday night so the kitten cuddled up to Sebastian on the deck

.

The picture needs to be turned around, but you can see him in Sebastian's tail. It was too cute!! However, those of you who know Kirk know how much he loves animals and he tends to rescue them A LOT! So, the kitten is still hanging around my parents' house and next time we see them it looks like we might have a new OUTDOOR kitten! Goodness!

The trip was great and it was hard to come back to work! Anytime we all get to spend together is always lots of laughs and fun! We kept talking about how next year, we'd have McCoy along and how fun that will be!! We can't wait for next year's beach vacation!!!

Sounds like a great trip! You look adorable in your swimsuit! You'll be so glad you took some pre-baby vacations, because it won't be that easy for a while!
