The day started and ended with fun. David and Abby were up early waiting for the rest of us to get up so we could go to the beach. They were at the beach by 9:30 and Emily and I were down there by 10:30. It was a beautiful sunny day and we had a blast on the beach. The white sand and green water is a fantastic contrast to the brown waters and sand of Galveston that we are used to. The current and winds were very strong today so you could only go waist deep in the water. David is the only one that cares to go further out.
We came back for lunch and a nap for David and Abby. Later we headed down to the pool and lazy river, which is very nice and a lot of fun. After dinner we drove into Destin to check it out and had to make a stop a one of the touristy beach shops. The money that nana gave the girls for the trip has been burning a whole in their pockets. Olivia had already talked to Allison after they got back from their trip to Florida and had gotten the scoop on where to shop and what to buy. So Olivia had a list and was ready to shop. The girls got t-shirts and postcards. Olivia got a necklace, Emily got a flip flop zipper pull with her name on it and Abby got a live hermit crab!!!( Of course, that is so Abby)....though apparently she is sharing it with her sister. Of course they have already names the hermit crab and her name is Audrey.....such a pretty name to give to a crab! Then we walked along the boardwalk at HaborWalk and had a great evening. We LOVE this place.
