Day Two Hundred Two 2011













Thursday at the beach. We were a bit scattered today. Hubby Neil, daughter Kelly and I hit the beach to enjoy yet another beautiful day of sand and sea. Son in law Jerry and grandson Elijah splashed in the pool and played video games. Son in law Kerry, daughter Holly and grand daughter Shelby went para sailing--definitely the most exciting past time of the day. Kerry has done this before, but it was a first for Holly and Shelby. The guy on the boat who hooked them into the sail took these pictures and then gave them the pictures on an SD card. That second picture is right at the moment they lifted off and you can see it on Shelby's face. Holly says her favorite picture is the last one, when they dunked them in the Gulf. Great shots! They had a blast. Shelby wanted to do it all over again when they got back on the boat. Para sailing will most definitely be on the to-do list for our trip next year. Tomorrow is our last day in Destin before we hit the road home on Saturday. We're not ready to leave!

Glad they got to experience that! Kerry is definitely a pro at parasailing. I wish we had done it when we were in Destin. Maybe next time :0) Beach time always goes by so fast.

No one's ever ready to leave the beach! Sounds like everyone had a fun day doing their thing. Great pics of the parasailing adventure. Way to go, Shelby!

I was really proud that Shelby parasailed! I was worried that she would change her mind. Kerry said she had a blast!!! I'd agree by the look on her face in these pics! She wanted to do it again as soon as they landed :o) Worth every penny!
