Weekend at the Coast ~ ~~


Last weekend, the 4 of us went to Dalton's parents' condo at the coast. We LOVE going there because there is so little to do! Last weekend, we swam in the pool at the condo, then took the boat to the sandbar. We drove down to St Simons to go to the beach on Sunday and were able to stay about an hour or so before the BOTTOM fell out! BUT ~ it was fun while it lasted! (My camera died, so no pics from the beach!) We had so much fun ~ it is so nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of life and head to the coast! I only wish we were there now! :)

On our way ~ Mary Dalton & Jackson were OUT!
Suz had this closet in our room made into bunkbeds for the kids! They look SO good and they LOVE playing on them!


Mary Dalton and Jackson on the bluff at Dalton's grandparents' house, getting ready to go to the sandbar.


jackson is NOT smiling ~ he HATES the boat! We discovered this a few weeks ago on a fishing trip. He kept trying to run back the ramp of the dock. Oh yeah ~ and he INSISTED on wearing floaties AND a life jacket just to be SURE he did not go under!

Mary Dalton and Daddy driving us the sandbar ~ we were trying to keep her from crying! She loves it, but Jackson was screaming SO loudly that he was about to upset her, too!




I was trying to get a shot of me and JDD ~ did not work, but he was soooo screaming at this point! We were expecting it, so we just kinda ignored him!



At the sandbar! Yeah!!

Dalton and Jackson catching crabs ~ they had about 30! We said he redeemed his "manliness" by catching crabs! LOL




MDD buried in the sand ~ fun idea at the time, but a HUGE mess to clean up!





Jackson wanted to be buried, too ~ but would not part with his floatie!





Later that night, we went to Speed's Kitchen ~ it is the BEST seafood! We LOVE going there! it is always the highlight of the trip! We actually ate there twice while we were there! And yes ~ it is in a double wide trailer. Mary D. had to potty and was so amazed that "you can even take a bath at Speed's!" ~ there was a tub in the bathroom



Dalton's parents also bought a house on the water, but have not finished remodeling it yet. We love to go over and sit in the swing and enjoy the view! Mary Dalton was playing wedding and JDD was catching crabs again.




The view from the swing at the new house


I was determined to get a picture of us! It is kinda blurry and I guess I should also mention that I do not wear make up at the coast! :)






Have a great weekend!
