I've been recapping our Spring Break vacation, and today, I'm sharing our final day in Gulf Shores. You can read and part 2 if you missed those!
On day 3, we slept in and DJ cooked a big breakfast for us. We had blueberry muffins (that we made before we left), eggs, hash browns, bacon, fruit, and we even attempted biscuits on the blackstone (which did not work out so well.) The weather was suppose to be 66 and sunny, so we turned Wednesday in to our beach day.
It wasn't the most beautiful beach day, but we took what we had and enjoyed the sunshine, and lots of wind. The water was cold. Too cold to get in, in my opinion, but the girls got in and didn't seem to care. They ran with the waves up to shore and then right back in.
We bought little boards for them to play on and I'm so glad we kept them throughout the years because they still use them when we go to the beach (and thankfully we have some beaches right here in Texas so the girls use them more than I thought they would!)
After they played in the water, they warmed up with sweatshirts, towels, and read a little.
Gee and Megan played catch.
They played in the sand.
and started digging a ginormous hole with a "slide" I'm so thankful they started digging this hole because about 30 minutes before they were all begging to leave saying they were bored, but I was there to soak up some sun and definitely wasn't ready to leave.
We finally did leave around 4 and headed back to the camper for burgers and s'mores!
Since Gretchen is gluten free, we started buying these graham crackers, and all of the girls love them!
S'mores made with chocolate chip cookies are the best though :)
It was a fun last evening; and though our trip was short, we had another little adventure up our sleeve. Stay tuned for part 4!
