Beach Vaca, Continued....

For some reason whenever I heard mention of oysters, I always thought of awful food poisoning. I didn't realize that was only a risk if you eat them RAW. So while in oyster country, Brian and I had oysters, baked, for the first time. Holy goodness, batman, they were amazing. Seriously, amazing!!! I can't stop thinking about them. Mmmm....

This was the pirate ship park we went to on the last day, the boys loved it!

The rainbow we spotted driving over the 5 mile bridge to the island! The day before there were dolphins feet from the beach...seriously felt like paradise!!

More Beach Pics...

These are some of my favorites, this was the morning I dragged Nolan from bed to see the sunrise. It was a wonderful "date" with my little guy! Tootsie was a BIG fan of the beach, as well!

The Forgotten Coast, Part 1

Last week we packed our sand buckets and flip flops and headed to the beach on St. George Island (otherwise known as the Forgotten Coast). We rented a house directly on the beach and though the house was one of the more older homes in the area and nothing fancy, the location was all we were after and it suited us perfectly! In fact, we fell so in love with the area that we got wild and crazy and extended our stay by two nights. It was so awesome to be able to have so much uninterrupted time together. Here are some pics of our stay!

This is the back of our house, ours was the right side...3 bedroom, with a full kitchen, living room. The other side of the duplex was unused that week.
The view from the house:
The twins' eating spots, we loved feeding them and watching the water at the same time: Nolan learned how to play Go Fish, even though the only deck of cards we had were for Phase 10. We stayed up late one night, just the three of us, playing and laughing so hard that Nolan got the hiccups!
The town of Apalachicola is right across the bridge from SGI and its a big fishing town. Its well known for its amazing oysters and 90% of Florida oysters come from here! It was a really cute town, with really sweet folks!
