Mother's Day weekend Jeff just so happened to have a 4-day weekend so he suggested that we take a spur of the moment trip to the beach.... and that sounded absoultely perfect to me. We knew the next couple months would be sooo hectic so this would be our last chance to get away...just the two of us. It was also a perfect opportunity to celebrate our upcoming anniversary, acknowledge my first "mother's day," and have a little baby-moon.

I'm really not as big as I look in this picture...I swear its the angle and the stripes. Ugh! |
So off to Destin, FL we went! We went to Destin last summer and loved it. The beaches are gorgeous, its about a 4-hour drive, and its not as tourist and crazy like Panama City. We were lucky enough to find a really nice hotel right on the beach. It was incredible to just take a short walk from your bed to the beach. Pure bliss. Another plus....with a beachfront hotel comes a chair and umbrella service....aka someone else has to carry/set-up/deal with all that annoying heavy beach equipment. Amazing.

Much deserved relaxation! |
We spent our mornings indulging in a full breakfast buffet, afternoons on the beach (lemonade in hand), and nights out to dinner at local restaurants (Jeff of course was in heaven from all the fresh sea-food), and ended each night with gelato, YUM. Ahhhh, would do anything to go back right about now.
Towards the end of our long weekend the weather turned nasty, so perfect time for us to leave and head home to our first born, Lexi, who was spending the weekend with her bff, Charlie!
