First Family Vacation Pics

We headed down to Orlando where we stayed for a few nights and went to Seaworld and Downtown Disney. I'll have a separate post about that tomm. Then we were off to Sanibel Island, Fl. I could not contain my excitement. Although we live near Destin and go to the beach often, there is something so serene, lush, tropical and relaxing about Sanibel. No huge high rise hotels, no massive mansions on the beach. Just palm trees, the resorts and the water. And the shells! The beaches are known down there for shelling. There are hundreds of shells lining the beach and along with those are the hundreds of hermit crabs, sand dollars and star fish waiting to be found. Heaven on earth. The kids had a blast on the beach. Gianna loved collecting sea shells and we spent a week doin gnothing more than relaxing, reading, laying by the beach, swimming in the pool and trying out various yummy restaraunts. I couldn't have asked for a better vacation. Now for picture overload

We were so sad when our week was up. Looking forward to returning to Sanibel as soon as possible!
