Summer Fun

Well, I suppose I should write about our trips this summer before my memory fails me. First, for Victoria's birthday, we went to Atlanta and stayed a couple of nights. (We got a REALLY good deal on a 4 star hotel!) Anyway, we went to the Coke museum which was pretty cool. We went to the mall and of course ate lots of Chinese food.

At the Coke museum, Brayden loved that bear! Victoria refused to take a picture with him. Jonathan tried to bribe her saying that he would pay her $5 if she would stand by the bear with Brayden. I was like $5! Are you crazy? I don't think he ever gave it to her though :).
This is all they did in the hotel room. Watch cartoons. Too bad the room didn't have 2 tv's! Well, I guess that's not ALL they did. Brayden ran around the room most of the time, terrorizing everything.

Our next little trip was for 5 days in Sandestin, Fl. It was so awesome. We made it before the oil got there. It was so nice. We stayed at a Hilton resort that had a private beach and there weren't that many people there. A lot of people cancelled their reservations when they heard about the oil spill. So that meant there were also more rooms to choose from. We got a room with a partial ocean view and it had bunk beds for the kids and 2 double beds. Victoria loved sleeping on the top bunk and they also had a separate tv this time! Brayden loved looking out at the pool and couldn't get enough "outside time".


To say he loved the ocean and the beach is an understatement. He had no fear of the water and just ran out into it. Scary for us, but not for him. Jonathan loved swimming in the ocean and I loved laying on the beach.

We went a few miles down the road to an Air Force museum. Not too much fun for me, but Brayden and Jonathan liked it. Brayden LOVES airplanes and helicopters.
Well, that was our trip. We hope to be able to go back sooner than later.
