Destin 2017

Our first beach trip as a family of four. Coop LOVED the beach and the ocean. The water was super calm Wednesday and Thursday, so we was in the out of the water all by himself. June on the other hand.... she tolerated it mostly. She did enjoy floating in the ocean in her float one day. She definitely preferred the pool.
August 13-18

Prius packed to the brim!

Jumping waves on arrival day


breakfast on the balcony

sand dollar on the first day!

As long as she had a pouch, she was happy.

Overall, it was such a great trip! We were worn out, but the weather was great, the water beautiful, and the time together priceless.
