Vacation Pensacola Beach

We had a great time on our first family vacation to the beach. The boys had so much fun. They were really good. Nate was very nervous of the ocean and would not go near it but fortunately he loved the beach since it's like a giant sand box. Collin had no fear and ran right in. We had lots of fun soaking up the sun. The weather could not have been better. We collected lots of seashells and saw lots of ocean wildlife. We have pictures of the dolphins and sting rays, but we also saw jellyfish and sand crabs and lots of fish. The jellyfish were only around one morning and they were really big so they were easy to avoid. We spent most of our mornings at the beach and after nap time it was time for the pool. Nate and Collin both love the pool. It was the perfect vacation and hope to make it back next year.

Isn't this picture funny?? Nate lined up with the birds.

We took the ferry over to the boardwalk for dinner one evening.



We met another family with boys about the same age. Here they are looking for fish.

Story time after a long day of fun in the sun.

As we were packing up to leave a storm was coming in.
