Day Two Hundred 2011





















































Tuesday at the beach. Once again, God blessed us with perfect weather and the clearest and calmest of seas. The water was so placid today that even grandson Elijah had the best time swimming around like a little merman. Grand daughter Shelby and son in law Jerry enjoyed snorkeling in that clear water. It was simply a great day to spend at the beach. We hit the Mellow Mushroom for a delicious pizza supper. After that, Elijah and Shelby climbed into giant hamster-type balls and rolled around in a pool of water. It is hilarious watching these little kids trying to stand up and run inside these huge balls on water. They had a great time. Back at the beach, hubby Neil and sons in law Jerry and Kerry did a little fishing in the Gulf but didn't catch anything. They plan to try again tomorrow. And they're looking into some deep sea fishing later this week. By the end of our days here, we are all pleasantly exhausted. Good times. Hope you can watch the short video posted here.

Wonderful day at the beach! I feel like I was there! The hamster ball thing is hilarious!! Where in the world was that? And I didn't know Destin had a Mellow Mushroom. Is that Kelly or you in the bandana and sunglasses in the 3rd pic? I figure you were taking pics so that must be Kelly. It looks just like you!

More awesome beach shots! I wish the water had been that calm when we were in the Gulf. It almost looks like a pool. Beautiful! The MM pizza looked yummy and the kids in the hamster balls was hilarious! I could only imagine how funny it was live and in person :0)

Mellow Mushroom? Again, I'm jealous! That hamster ball thing looked fun! We may have to do that when we go!

Jane, that is Kelly in that pic :) And yes there is a Mellow Mushroom in Destin! Yum!! Those 'hamster' balls are on the strip somewhere across the street from the Gulfgate area. Easy to spot from the road :)
