First 2 days at the beach




We packed up and left at about 5 am on Sunday morning for a week in Panama City Beach, Florida. We are staying at Laguna Beach Christian Retreat for the week with several other families from our church (if you want a really cheap but nice vacation - check them out). Trey did really well traveling (thanks to leaving so early and a tiny dose of Benadryl to keep him sleepy). I love the beach - the weather is fabulous. We are right across the road from the beach - the Talley family from church brought down a huge tent that is held in place by cement blocks, so Trey can spend a lot of time under there and out of the sun.

Talking/Singing with him to try to get him to go to sleep at naptime
Friends under the tent - Trey is asleep under there too


Trey took his naps under the tent





He seems to like the sand and waves, but he definitely loves the pool. He splashes and giggles - it is so fun to watch him.

Trey's first time in the pool


Tonight the guys stayed home with the kids and the girls all went out for dinner at the Red Bar where I ate crawfish for the first time. I'm not a huge seafood lover, but the food there was really good. We had a fun time together, and Trey did really well at the condo with David.


Standing to the right of me is Jen and Meredith - 2 of my good friends who are in our community group (Jen is married to Lee and Meredith is married to Ryan who are 2 of David's good buddies)
