Beach Trip

Last week Tyler, Chris, Jenna and I all headed to Orange Beach for a long weekend.  We woke up early Thursday morning and headed out.  Once we got there we stopped by the Foley Outlet Malls to look around for a bit.  In my opinion, there were no deals.  Everything we normal priced and there wasn't even a good selection of stuff! I was disappointed.  But I didn't really go down there to shop so it wasn't too big of a deal.  Once we got all of out stuff settled we decided to head out to the beach for the afternoon to just relax.  That night we went to dinner at Bubbas, it was ehhhh.

Headed out to Bubbas

The next day we woke up and headed straight to the beach! We ended up staying until around 4:30 and went to the pool after that.  That night we went to Mikees, which again was a disappointment. Tyler and I have been there multiple times in the past and it is/was our favorite place to eat down there.  We had built it up all day to Chris and Jenna only to be completely let down once we got there! Sad.  The food was over cooked and the service was terrible! Oh well.  Maybe next time!?

The boys got BURNED at the beach that day!

Saturday morning we woke up to a monsoon.  Tyler and Chris were supposed to go play golf but considering it was coming a flood, they decided it wasn't the greatest idea.  We decided to venture back to the outlet malls because my watch had broke the night before and I wanted to see if somewhere there could fix it.  Jenna also needed to pick up something for her sister so off we went! After we got done there we headed back and went to lunch at Live Bait.  It was yum! The weather was still icky so we went back to the condo and hung around and started getting ready for that night.  We decided to go to Cobalt that night for dinner.  I think that was the best decision we made the entire trip.  Everyones food was sooooooooo good!! It was really nice and had a great view.

Had to take a pic! I also had to get a tshirt.  It reminded us
of our little (big) pup at home Cobalt!

Everyone at dinner

Taking pics outside on the pier
I need to learn how to use my camera and get the settings right.
Little bright, huh. 

Back story: So we wanted a pic of the 4 of us outside so I asked this man if he would
take a pic.  He said, "Sure, I shake a lot though".  I thought no big deal. Wrong! He forgot to say
he was also drunk.  So after 2 minutes of showing him how to take a pic, this is what we ended up with.
Great huh. Nothing a little cutting and cropping cant fix.

Sunday we woke up to another monsoon and headed home! By the time we got finished loading the truck everyone, especially Tyler and Chris, were completely soaking wet! It was awful.  It rained almost the first 2 hours of our drive home. But we made safe and sound! I wish we could have had a few more sunny days at the beach but all good things must come to an end.

Speaking of good things coming to an end.....my summer is almost over.  I can not believe that in 2 weeks I will be starting back work! Where did this summer go????!! This week I'll be heading back up to the school to get my classroom ready, its hard to believe it.  I plan on being extremely lazy for the next two weeks to get ready for the year ahead :)
