Extremely Spontaneous Beach Weekend!

Hello! Hope each of you had a great weekend- we sure did! On Thursday, after drooling over the weekend forecast, I asked Jeremy if he thought he would have to work any during the weekend. He said he doubted it, do I asked him what he thought about heading to the beach for the weekend. He said sure, although he probably doubted I would follow through.

Well, I Friday afternoon I actually booked a place, and we arrived Friday night between midnight and one. (Jeremy's only request was that if we did go to the beach, we still had to keep our plans to eat at La Zona Rosa on Friday night, which we did. There was a 40 minute wait, so that set us back a little, but hey, what's the difference when you're arriving so late anyway?)

We stayed at Baytowne in Destin, which is one of our favorite spots. We parked the car Friday night and didn't move it until we checked out on Sunday. And we stayed at the Village, so we were super close to everything. Saturday was the annual Gumbo Festival, and you know we wouldn't miss that. Jeremy got a little carried away with the gumbo and got sick in the middle of the night, but it was still a blast nonetheless. We had lots of good food, took Hubb to the pool and the beach, and had a blast just being in the beautiful weather. Enjoy the pictures!

Hubb's "cheese" face

Aaaand there's his real smile





Playing in the lawn at the wharf



This face sums up his feelings regarding the cold water in the pool.



And the water was very chilly at the beach as well, although it was BEAUTIFUL



Enjoy this beautiful weather!!!

  1. Ahhhh, I'm so jealous! I wanted to go to the beach last weekend but couldn't talk Trey into it. Next time you go let me know and maybe I can use that as leverage! We have a free place to stay so you can stay with us...and it's across the street from Baytowne. I just can't ever talk him into going. Love the pics!
