Much needed VACATION

Well…Matt and I went to my dad’s condo in Orange Beach at the beginning of November.  To say that it was a much needed vacation is an UNDERSTATEMENT!  Matt and I don’t get to do much alone…like we have only seen ONE movie since Trigger was born (2.5 years ago) and only a handful of times have we gone out to eat without kids.  It’s sad, I know but it’s usually just easier to stay home.  Anyway, we left on a Thursday morning and came back home on Sunday.  Doesn’t seem like a long time but I have never gone for 24 hours without seeing Trigger OR Campbell.  Plus, I was going from nursing Campbell (or attempting to nurse him) to NOT being with him…It was HARD!!!  Matt and I had a GREAT time.  we didn’t do much relaxing at all. We shopped, shopped, shopped!!!  Matt and I both desperately needed clothes so we bought us some new clothes, the boys new clothes, and some Christmas presents…AND, we ate ALOT and we ATE IN PEACE!!!  It really was a nice way for us to connect with each other and actually have some adult conversation!

We took a few pictures while were there…most are pretty cheesy and sooo remind me of pictures we have from college years.  Mainly because I am wearing a denim jacket in one of them and it seemed like I always had a denim jacket on in college pics.

This next one is us at McGuires.  It was a great place to go eat.  We had to drive a ways but it was worth it.  This is the place that has money hanging all over the ceiling.  It definitely has alot of character.

  It was so bright that it was hard to get a good picture with our eyes open!

And of course they are still working on the beaches and I had to take some pictures of the tractors for my sweet boy that is obsessed with them!

Maybe we will make this an annual trip because just doing this post, is making me wish for a little getaway!
