Father's Day and The Beach!

I am so behind on blogging! I had to get a new phone, and all of my pictures from Father's Day were on my old one, so I lost them. We had fun celebrating though! Uncle Tim, Aunt Dessa and the girls came up on Saturday and we did some shopping, hung out a little and went to Wing Fest. We love when they come see us... those girls are like little mama's to Drew and he loves it! This is the only picture I was able to recover from Saturday...
Sunday, we celebrated with Poppy, Uncle Lance and Daddy at Burger Shack. Drew's Poppy can eat some burgers. He orders them everywhere we go!
The following Friday, we headed out for the first leg of a 12 hour road trip to Navarre, FL to spend the week with our family.  He did so good in the car! Much better than we expected...
We stayed in a hotel that night and Drew was not a fan! This was his first time to not stay in a crib or pack & play, so he was really confused with the big bed. Once he got settled down, he did great and was back to his normal self the next morning. 
On Saturday, we met my parents at the condo we were staying at for the week and then The Emerson's and The Brightwell's were staying just a mile down the beach from us! We pretty much did the same thing every day... wake up, visit on the balcony, head to the beach, nap for Drew, lunch, back to the beach and then dinner and more visiting. Because every day was so similar, I thought I would finish this post up with pictures from our week! 

Enjoying the view..
Goofing off at the restaurant...
Headed to the beach...
First time in the sand...
And not sure what to think about it...
First look at the ocean... He did not like the waves coming in the first couple of days.
Building something...
Hanging out with the men...
Snacking with mom...
Monday was my 30th birthday!! I was spoiled all day by everyone. It was the best birthday ever, by far. I have to say, hearing Drew say Happy Birthday, might have been my favorite part!   
After dinner birthday pic (before Andy got food poisoning...ick!... it took him close to 24 hours to recover)...
Halle and Averi came up with a song, made up a dance and baked a delicious cake... all for me!!
Drew and Mimi doing "row row row your boat" on the balcony one morning...

Taking a walk...
Taking a break...
Hanging out with The Emerson and Brightwell crew... Drew let us take him all the way in to the ocean that afternoon!

Now for the overall pictures. I just couldn't resist!
Weathering a quick storm...
The last night...

Thank you to Mimi and Poppy for taking us on such a great trip!!
We had such an amazing time and made so many great memories! It was truly the best vacation!!
