Beach Vacay

After Easter Sunday in Mobile, we packed up and made the short drive to Dauphin Island for a little vacation. As you can see, a week later our bags are still not unpacked but we do have a little stowaway:)

Brad's parents have a condo on the island; however, it was rented out. Lucky for us our good family friends, The Boney's, have a mirror image condo right next door to the Tews! They were gracious enough to let us stay at their beautifully decorated condo for a few days - Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Boney!

Little Addi girl sprouted gills and fins while on the island. She tolerated the beach but thoroughly enjoyed the indoor salt water pool.

Addison tried her hardest to pick up all the sand on the beach one handful at a time. She especially liked it when we would fill her bucket up with water which meant endless trips for Brad and I to the shoreline for refills.

Addi's favorite part of the beach was sitting on the shoreline and letting the waves wash over her. The water was pretty chilly but she didn't seem to care.

Each night, we feed the seagulls which was always a crowd pleaser.

We had a fantastic time and hope we can return soon. Dauphin Island is a special little place that has been unspoiled by commercialization. In fact, most days we had the entire beach to ourselves! Its a great destination for a family vacation if you want to enjoy the laid back island lifestyle. Check it out. You won't be disappointed! By the way, we stayed here and The Boney's have availability this summer;)
