Gulf Shores Beach Trip

 

We brought Max to the beach on Sunday to play in the sand and in the water.  Max did not like the water or the sand.  He wouldn't leave our side (which I guess isn't a bad thing).  He stayed on the towel or on my lap most the time.  He enjoyed watching everyone in the water and there were boys skim boarding to entertain him.

It was very sunny and Max couldn't see, but wouldn't keep his hat on.

Flash back to our last beach trip in  Jacksonville Beach when Max was about 8 months old. Yes, I need a new bathing suit, I realize that. Here are a few more flash backs for your Thursday. This year.

 

 

Last year! We were there for an air show hence the ear plugs and airplane shirt.

Max loved watching daddy make little sand castles.

He wouldn't wear his sunglasses either, but luckily it was mostly cloudy so he got some relief.

Love my boys!

This is what I did all morning! No complaints here.

We ate at some great restaurants and enjoyed hanging out with Anslee, Austin, Stacey and Darrin for a few days before heading home.

 

Here are a few iphone pics that I couldn't resist sharing. Max was zonked out in the car here. He has car seat bed head. 

 

We stopped at Firehouse Subs on our way down and Max enjoyed the fireman hat. I guess I should have brought this one to the beach. 

 

 We ate at the Oyster house and Max shared my blackened mahi mahi.  

Happy boys. 

This is how Stacey and Annslee found the guys while Max was napping, they had to get their own napping in as well on the inter coastal. Such a fun quick beach trip. We need to plan one down to see Uncle Chris and Auntie Marla.
