Day one at the beach!

Kip is happy to be at the beach!

His 1st beach picture.


Marc, Josh, and Adam not
sure about this wave.

Well, We made it! We are at Orange Beach Florida, we arrived at 5:30 am. Kip did pretty good during the ride. We only had to stop once about 1:30 because he was hungry. Now we can say Kip has been to Florida and Alabama. He likes to ride in the car. Adam and I got a few hours of sleep when we arrived, but not enough.


We really didn't do a whole lot today! Hurricane Ike is really making it very windy and the waves are Huge! Adam, Marc, and Josh played in the ocean. It was very dangerous! A wave hit Adam and his head ran in to Josh. Giving Adam a head ache. Then Adam got a cramp in his leg, Marc and Josh had to get him out of the water. The whole time Jenny and I are sitting there trying to figure out what they are doing. Kip loves being outside. We haven't put his toes in the sand and a drink in his hand yet but he is still very happy.


We went to The Hangout for dinner it was a very cool atmosphere, but a little dead due to the weather and it is off season. After I got Kip to sleep! Adam and I crashed we was so tired.

What a weekend!

Kip was ready to watch the Dawgs play!

Our weekend was way busy! It all started on Friday, with Relay for Life at Dillinger park. Our theme was Disney Princess fighting for a Cure. We sell save the Ta-Ta stickers and Magnets and they went fast. Now we just know how much we need to get for next year. It was Kip's first relay and we are all sure it will not be his last. He really did great! Thank goodness he loves to be out side and loud noise doesn't bother him, he slept through it all. He really had a late night out, we got home at 2 am. He didn't seem to mind.







On Saturday Kip and I went to a Baby Shower for Angie. It was given by her friends at work. She really got a lot of nice things. Now we are just waiting on little Ansley to get here. I really can't wait, it will be so much fun seeing Kip and Ansley grow up together and to be a aunt!



After the shower we went to Ed and Diana's to watch them Dawgs play. WOW! Knowshown can really jump, for anyone that watched the game knows what I am talking about! HE is amazing! Well, they really put a beating on Cent. Mich. After the game we all went home so I could finish getting my stuff together for Button and Bows.



Sunday we went to church, then over to the Main Campus to start getting things ready for our big kids sale. We really got a lot of stuff in on Sunday. I am not sure where we are going to put everything. I really enjoy working the kid sale.



Maybe I will have time to write before we leave for FL/Bama on Friday. If not I will keep u up dated through out our weekend. It will be Kip's first trip to the beach. His best friend Malachi will be there too.



See ya!
