We vacationed in Destin, Florida with my parents this year, and even with two young boys it was still a vacation. It is great to have Mimi and Pop Pop's help, and it is great that Phillip likes to take naps, so I got a few moments to relax on the beach. When Landon was on the beach with us, it was not relaxing at all; he hated it, but I really think it was the heat because the few times that we went to the beach in the evening, he loved it. On the other hand, Lofton loved it all. This was his best year; he even liked the ocean until we saw a few jelly fish and sting rays, and he wouldn't get in too far, but he still enjoyed the beach. Lofton also enjoyed the pool, and he made friends so easily; he always had someone to play with.
Lofton and Landon both enjoyed all of our afternoon and evening excursions. One day we went to Big Kahuna water park, and Lofton talked about it every day after. He loved the water slides. We also went to the Track one night to ride rides; I think Phillip had more fun than Lofton. Putt Putt was a big hit of course, and mom and I took the boys on a dolphin cruise one day. The cruise was a big hit; Lofton got to steer the boat, play with fish caught in the net, and feed the seagulls; well, the seagulls didn't get much food since the food given to us to feed them was Cheetos! Landon got most of them. Lofton also enjoyed climbing a coconut tree. The man working the booth said he wasn't sure if Lofton could do it since he was so young, but he is determined and after a few tries, he did it.
We all had a great time, and we are already looking forward to next year when hopefully, Landon will spend more than 20 minutes at the beach since it takes that long to get them ready to go for the day! Thanks mom and dad for taking us with you.

Sounds like you had a blast. We came up twice while you were gone and Reesi finally asked, "When are we going to go to Lofton's house?" Wish we could be there for the fourth with my cherries! Have fun!
