We Heart FL!

First off, I'd like to apologize for all the photos in this post, but it was the beach...can you blame me?!  We were fortunate enough to be able to take a FABULOUS vacation to Okaloosa Island, FL during R&R.  The Lord blessed us with gorgeous weather, and a beautiful condo right on the beach!  It was our third time to the beach as a family (you can read about our other beach vacations here and here), but only our second with Caellum.  The boys loved the beach!  Ty had a blast swimming in the ocean with Daddy, but Caellum was a little more reserved about going into the water.  Caellum had more fun digging in the sand and chasing the sea gulls than anything!  We saw dolphins every day, and on our last day, we even saw a shark (and jellyfish) swimming in shin-deep water...yikes!  Good thing we didn't see that shark until our last day!  Looking at these pictures make me wish we were still there!

 Trying to get a good pic of both boys together...it's nearly impossible!

Good pic of the four of us...even more difficult!

Ty buried in the sand

Tried to spell their names out in the sand...didn't do such a good job at that!

Aunt Kathy (who lives near Orlando, FL) made the 7 hour drive up for one night just to see us!  You can read about the amazing things she's doing for our military men and women here.  She is awesome, and we love her!

Me and my man!

I could wake up to this view every day of my life!  This was taken from our balcony.

Eglin Air Force Base was right on our way, so we stopped there to do our grocery shopping at the commissary!  And we also took the time to visit their museum.

Caellum was conked out during our museum visit.

They had a little jet simulator you could sit in .  Ty was in heaven!  He asked us where the keys go, and where he could put his snacks. :-)  He had a blast pushing all the buttons and levers.

If you are looking for an affordable, two bed/bath condo to rent for vacation in Okaloosa Island, FL (about 10 min from Destin, FL) let me know!  The owner of this condo is super sweet, gave us a great deal, and I would highly recommend her to anyone!
