After a hard morning of seeing lots of sea creatures, we had one tuckered out baby!! Austin had been dying for seafood, so we ate lunch at a resturant on the bay called... Amberjacks. It was fun and Austin enjoyed his fish!! Macey enjoyed it too... looking at the birds, fish, and eating a little bit of our food too. She is getting so big and I cannot believe what she is eating these days. It was nice that we jam packed the morning so we wouldn't be thinking about it being the last day at the beach....

Happy girl when she woke up!

That afternoon after we got back from lunch, we of course headed to the beach! Since we knew about the beach trip, I had it in my mind to take a cute jumping picture on the beach... but first a cute picture of us :)
The best one we got... yeah fail!
Lynnsay helping me get my camera in the right setting...
Got a good one!!! Jordan, Jayci, Lynnsay, Me, Mary Beth, Bess and Claire all did great for this jumping picture!! Next time I will be ready with my camera on the right setting...
Austin and I having a little fun!
Since it was the last night and everyone was still in town... we had a shrimp boil. Rocco cooked... with a little help... shrimp, corn, potatoes, and sausage!!! It was delicious!!! I even ate TWO little shrimps... and that is good for me. If you know me, you know I DO NOT like seafood.... but since Macey was born, I have been a little more adventurous! I have been eating more seafood than usual! We also took this time to get a good picture of the Macey family.... The Brents, The Dawkins, The Maceys, and The Maceys! Mary Beth was kind enough to come take the picture for us! I haven't seen them so I hope they turned out great!!! Maybe Macey will have a BIG SMILE in one of them!!! That would be cute.
After a fun night.... and to add on, Lynnsay won big a Tripoley that night... Saturday we all woke up and slowly one by one left our beach vacation. It was sad to leave.... and a LONG, LONG drive home... but what made it better was having Mom and Dad behind us, so when we stopped, they stopped with us. Made the trip a little bit better for sure!!
We were lucky to only have rain one day at the beach but we had some storms on the way home!! I got a cool picture of a storm we passed through! It was crazy.. it looked like the rain was coming down and the dirt was going up... very wicked looking.
And last but not least, I have to say a little something about my near death experience!!!! I am always known for playing out in the big waves with the boys! Austin and I LOVE to play in the waves... and HB does too!! When we were out there, the undertow was pretty bad, but it was awesome to feel and push against!! Well, none of us were paying attention and before I knew it, I was knocked over and under the water I went. In movies and such you always see them get taken under and just keeps you under and I was so afraid I was a goner.... but thank goodness the water was extra shallow..maybe 3ft.. and so I just stood up... I know sounds scary huh!??!?! But it was the first time I had every been jerked under so it was scary to me!!! Just wanted to add that :)
All in all, it was a GREAT trip and I cannot wait to go to the beach again. Next year the trip it is to the river. I know you remember my post about the river last year... I was WAY pregnant!!! But I know that will be another great trip! Hope we get to go!!!
