Gulf Shores 2009

So once again we headed off to Gulf Shores Alabama to end our summer relaxing on the beach and enjoying the company of good friends. It was really hard for me to pick just a few pictures out of the 1,000 I took but eventually I was able to do it.


Our first stop before we reached our destination was the USS Alabama. Tyler and Maddie enjoyed all the climbing and exploring. Before we left Jeffrey and Tyler rode in a simulator (I think they were in an air war) it was Tyler's favorite part but also when we had to leave b/c Maddie was ticked off that she didn't get a turn.

This is kids telling me how much they love me!

We found these silly hat's and Tyler wanted his picture taken in a few.

Madison was the most comfortable near the waves when her daddy was with her.

Will, Maggie, Maddie and Tyler. These little swimmers had so much fun at the pool! Tyler and Will really had gotten good at swimming by the time we left.

"CHEESE!"

Just getting ready for a day out on the boat. Jeffrey and Eric decided to rent a boat with an upper level and a slide, that turned out to be our favorite activity of the whole trip! We had so much fun on this day!

If you'll look ahead of the boy's you'll see the sharks that were swimming near us. Just kidding, they were dolphins. We saw so many of them that eventually we lost interest and decided to go beach the boat and swim.

The boys found a treasure under the big X (that they walked by three times) on the little island we decided to stop at.



I forgot what game they were playing here but it was hysterical to watch them try to get on!



Family beach pictures are going to be posted later!!
