To get out the heat for a minute, we walked down to Three George's for some ice cream, but since Luke doesn't really care for ice cream, jelly beans did the trick!
After the cook off, it was back to Mimi and Docs for more pool time and sprinkler time.
We ended Sat. night with a cookout at home. Good food. Good times!
Sunday we packed up our AWESOME mini-van and headed to the beach. We decided to go to pensacola, fl in hopes that the beaches would be tar ball free! We ate at a place called Flounders which was on the bay side. It was a beautiful day and they had some great seafood. Luke and Connor loved playing on the play ground which was just a few tables down from us.
We had both boys in the way back on the way down and they did great, however, by the end of the day they had the infamous "He's touching my seat" sibling spat, so we had to separate them. Wow, maybe we aren't ready for two!
The beaches were BEAUTIFUL! Not a tar ball in sight! It was a little windy, but the water was clear and totally swimmable. Luke like the wave ok, but loved the sand. Mark and Michelle were amazed at the sea shells. They said they don't have shells like that at the beaches.
Luke and Connor had such a great time playing together all weekend. They were best buds. It was so cute watching them interact and actually play. Luke was so wound up, he didn't even nap during the days. (Thankfully, he is back on schedule and taking a nice long nap this afternoon!)
On our way back we saw the "Hot Doughnuts Now" sign and had to get a dozen doughnuts for the Russell's. The big boys had just as much fun as the little boys!
We had such a good visit with our friends and will have to plan a visit up north soon!
