Orange Beach Part II

Orange Beach is not just about the beach!  We found lots of other activities to do too!  In fact, while the boys went fishing, all the girls went shopping!

We also found a ferris wheel for the girls to ride. These two are too cute!
So I had to add this beach picture even though we're not talking about the beach.  I hope they stay friends forever.
We love our family vacations with the Faulkners!  This year Jordan brought a friend who helped her babysit all the kids so the adults could go out for dinner.  We had a great time!
My handsome date!
We also went to some neat restaurants with the kids.  This place was made out of old shipping containers and you ate on picnic tables in the sand.
The kids had a blast playing around.
They even posed for pictures without too much complaining.  
We also found an outdoor festival to take the kids to.  They each got a balloon of their choice. Cassidy wanted a dog.
While Stetson went for a laser gun.
What would a carnival be without face painting?!  Meet my minion and Batman!
After all the fun was had in Orange Beach, we stopped at the Duck Commander store on the way home.  Anyone who watches Duck Dynasty knows this place.
Oh...the camera got turned on me. 
The Ratt Pack...
We also tried to eat at Willie's Duck Diner but the wait was WAY too long and we still had hours of driving ahead of us.  So, we just took a picture of it.

We really had a wonderful vacation and we are not ready to get back to reality!!

Orange Beach

Our family vacation this year was a trip to Orange Beach, Alabama.  The kids were so excited to go back to the beach after the fun they had in Destin last year.  We were not disappointed in our decision to do a beach vacation again.

Here's our crew playing in the surf and sand.
There were a lot of jelly fish so Stetson improvised a little.
Soaking up the sun!
Cassidy and Gage decided to dig a hole to China. Seriously, that's what they thought they were doing.
While Daddy and Stetson played frisbee in the water.
It's easier to dig if you add water to the sand, right?
My big guy that I love!
My little guy that I love!
He has a few more fans too.  How cute are they?!
"Do you see China yet?"
Cassidy got tired of digging so she decided to search for shells.  She found some great ones too!
Then Mr. Aaron buried her in the sand.
That just wasn't good enough, though.  Mrs. Amy and Daddy made her into a beautiful sand mermaid.
The beach is so much fun!!
