Destin Beach, FL

Last weekend I met up with some of my pals from Texas (although only one of us still lives in TX) in Destin Florida for a girls weekend. I felt really guilty leaving Lil Bit because she had a fever. Baby Girl has been so healthy and of course, the day before I leave, she comes down with a fever. But, BeBe assured me that she would be fine and encouraged me to go as planned. We had a lot of fun and although most of us just wanted to sleep in for once in our lives, we couldn't do it! We were all awake by 7:30 most days!


Eating lunch in Navarre Beach on the way to Destin.

Supper at Peppito's on the Harborwalk.



From largest to smallest!
Boats headed out in the morning for a day of fishing.

Our BIG adventure was parasailing! We all bought a Groupon before we got to Florida.
This was our boat.



Carrie and I earn our Airborne wings?
I couldn't believe how quiet it was up there.


Getting dunked!

:)

Coming in for our landing.
Kat and Michelle took this picture of the boat while they were in the sky.

Kat and Michelle about to get dunked.

I just keep laughing at this one. Kat took the brunt of that dunk.
Michelle looks like she's on a ride at Disney, just a smiling.
View from our balcony!
Doesn't get any better than that.



Birdy at the dock hoping for a fish scrap!

Hanging out at AJ's our last night in town.

On the parasailing boat.
The gal in the middle was our guide.
She was sooo fun!

Key lime pie filled donuts!
We must have gone by here 3-4 times for those things. But they were always gone.
Kat was kind enough to get up EARLY one morning and wait in line for us. She picked up a variety for us and they were so tasty.


The newest adventure in Destin.
Pretty cool to watch, but at $150 for 15 minutes, not sure how many takers they'll get.
Dewey Destin's restaurant.



It really was nice to get away and have fun with these ladies. I was so excited to get back and see our babes. Lil Bit taught me a lesson though, not letting me put her down for nearly two days after my return! She's back to her normal self now, thank goodness. A huge thanks to BeBe, PawPaw and Aunt R for entertaining them while I was gone.

We've been busy at VBS (vacation bible school) this week. And we're headed to Edisto Beach next week! Lots going on to keep us moving forward until B-man gets here.
