We're Back

We are back from our much needed vacation. Between the madness of work and home, we've managed to not have a real vacation in over 3 years. With Hayden being more mature and listening better, we decided to take a few days to go to Gulf Shores and then hit the Atlanta Aquarium on the way home.

We borrowed a DVD player and were set for the beach. I think Hayden watched Cars 3 times on the way down. It took us 9 hours and only had to stop for gas and a quick bite. We arrived around 3:30 which was perfect. It gave us time to load our stuff in the room and head for the beach. Here are a few pics of Hayden's first experience with the beach.



This is one of my favorite pics of his little foot print in the sand.



We stayed a few days at the beach and then headed to Atlanta to the largest aquarium. Hayden absolutely LOVED it! The crowds weren't bad with kids just going back to school so he was able to walk around and see everything. The animals were very cooperative and active for him to see. He could definately tell you the difference between a shark and a regular fish.


All in all we had a great time. Hayden couldn't have been a better behaved/mannered kid. He made this vacation wonderful.

Here are the rest of the pictures from our vacation. Enjoy!

Hi Rebecca,

The sheets are the "Planes, Trains, and Trucks" line from Olive kids, and you can get them at Target or Google them-eBay, the Olive Kids website, lots of places. We love them-thanks!
