Paradise!

Holy chicken pie with a margarita we've been busy! We just got back from vacation in Marco Island, FL. You say..Florida? in August? ABSOLUTELY! We dodged hurricane Irene and had beautiful weather all week! We rented a house on the bay complete with a pool that puts mine here at home to shame (I dont even like to look at it!). We went with my parents and sister and we all had the BEST time! I must say we are all pretty spoiled now though. We had an entire house to ourselves and pool to ourselves! No 18 flights of stairs back and forth to a hotel or condo! It was just all right there!
Mason LOVED the ocean and the beach! We took him down and just let him run! You see, in august NO ONE is on Florida! So the beaches are ghost towns! So it was perfect! Mason threw shells into the water, ran all over the place and giggled and squealed until he was passed out the in carseat!
We had wonderful food, AWESOME drinks (I think there is footage of me jumping in the pool fully clothed!) and lots of fun!
I would have had this post up sooner but I took.....wait for it......1,843 pictures! So I had alot of sorting to do!

Run, Run, RUN to the water!!!

Throwing shells into the water is only the FUNNEST thing EVER!

My boys enjoying the beach!

We already know we should be on the cover of a magazine. Its in the works...but thank you! :)
