Here are the kids going into the Mobile Bay tunnell. You can see the terror on Jarrett's face. He didn't like it. Jason and I even turned on the radio so the kids could hear it go away to static.
Here is Jarrett during the tunnel. He covered his head with his security blanket and cried.
The kids loved my mom's van so much. Here is Jarrett in the back. The kids did a good job not fighting over the backseat which was the favored spot.
They did nap part of the way down there.
Beach pictures. :)
Jarrett was afraid of the ocean. He would scream like we were killing him if we took him out into it with us. My neck has the nail marks to prove it. He did love the water though. He loved jumping the waves and falling.
Brooke was a little water horse. She hung out with Ashley the whole time and they traded a boogie board and a pink inner tube.
They didn't play in the sand much, but they did bury Ashley. They liked the water more.
The kids had a blast. So much so that they said they'd rather go to the beach for a week next year than Disney world as planned. Fine with me. I'd rather be in the cool water than the hot theme parks anyday. We even found a crab one day and the kids got to see it close up. Jarrett was so funny he looked at me very seriously and said "Mom they are supposed to be red." He was talking about the crab b/c the crab on sponge bob is red. We got extremely lucky Friday night b/c were we ate we got to watch 2 fireworks shows as we ate and afterwards we sat on the pier behind the restaurant and watched a huge fireworks show in the harbor. The kids loved it.
Our room was the best. It was like a little apartment. It had a full kitchen fully stocked. It also had a washer and dryer & bath n body soap and shampoo. Our complimentary breakfast was like going to Shoney's. We will definitely come back to this place. We had to drive to the beach, but thats ok for me.
It had such a big closet that we turned into Jarrett's room. He sleeps better in a room by himself.
One night we kept them out until midnight playing minature golf, gokarts, got ice cream, etc. This is Jarrett resting on Ashley while I fixed his pallet in his room.
The fun didn't stop there. I'll post more Friday. I don't want to make it to long, but I will leave you with a Jarrett funny.
As I was setting up our umbrellas and chairs I looked up and Jarrett was standing where the waves crash with his pants down peeing infront of a very very very crowded beach. Needless to say my hubby wasn't watching him very closely. This was mortifiying. Needless to say the nextday we went to a public beach that had restrooms.
Talk to you all later,
Brandi
