Beach Trip Part 4

July 31, 2012 | family, Travel, Uncategorized

 

Good morning friends! Before we get started, don’t forget to enter my Good Gear giveaway and like Good Gear on Facebook if you would like. This gear is so so soft, you don’t want to miss out!

This installment of my trip report will wrap up our time at the beach, and then I will be sure to go back and finish up the recap of my Disney trip from May (gosh I feel so behind!)

Ok so where I left off, we had eaten dinner at the Baytowne Village area of Sandestin and we then headed back to our condo across the highway and checked out the observation deck on top of our condo tower.

We were the only ones up there, so it was nice and relaxing to just take in the beautiful scenery. We called it a night after some TV watching, and the next morning I did much of the same as the day before, I headed to the pool!

After a couple of hours, I went back up to the room to get some work done. Some new Disney travel deals had just come out, and I had some clients ready to book. I worked for a couple of hours and then Bobby came and picked me up. We headed back to the Baytowne Village area for lunch. They had a Broken Egg Cafe there, and since we KNOW their food is amazing, we settled on it for a delicious brunch/lunch.

Ham and cheese omelet, cheese grits, English muffin

We headed back to the condo and decided taking naps was an awesome thing to do on a beach vacation. We woke up to some thunder and lightning. It was storming!

We decided we were enjoying being lazy way too much to put on “real clothes” and go out to dinner, so we did what any normal person would do, we ordered a pizza and watched endless episodes of Law and Order. Then we ate ice cream. It was the perfect evening for the last night of our trip.

The next morning we packed up the condo and checked out and I went with Bobby to the conference center and sat out in the hall bumming off the free wi fi because I had a LOT of work to do. After a couple of hours of work, I headed to the outlet malls by myself, which is becoming a little bit of a tradition of mine. Since this trip falls near (or on my birthday like last year) I never feel bad about buying a couple of new things!

I headed back to the conference center at noon to pick up Bobby, and we headed to Panera bread for lunch before hitting the road back to Mississippi! Goodbye beach until next year!

    Sounds like a very nice and relaxing trip! I don’t do any work on vacation, and generally don’t even bring any electronic devices – though I haven’t been on vacation sans kiddos since our wedding, so maybe if I did get a chance to get away I’d do some work? (Its doubtful).

Allow me to de-influence you. 💁🏻‍♀️ Sometimes we Allow me to de-influence you. 💁🏻‍♀️

Sometimes we (myself included) all need a little reminder that this app shows short snippets of the entirety of someone’s day and life. No one wants to post the boring, the ugly, the sad, but it’s there. 

Be careful not to compare your life with the people you see online. A lot of the things you see are inaccurate or a stretch of the truth, or just the best of the best. That’s not reality and I want to make sure no one thinks that I am ever trying to portray some perfect life that doesn’t exist. I’m a hot mess 99% of the time, and that’s ok! 😜

I sometimes am still waiting on an adult to walk into the room to tell me what to do….and then I remember I AM the adult. 🤣

When we get down to it, we are all very similar. I love you guys.

Trying to stay one step ahead is basically my pers Trying to stay one step ahead is basically my personality at this point 🤣 (ad)
From laying out my workout clothes to packing my daughter’s basketball bag… and yes, remembering my vitamins — staying proactive just makes life run smoother.

But I realized it shouldn’t just stop with me. My dogs are part of the family too. 💛 So when I’m grabbing our wellness essentials at select Walmart stores, I make sure to pick up our NaturVet pet supplements right from the Pet Health aisle.

At home, it’s simple: I get my vitamins and supplements, and they get theirs. Staying a step ahead means taking care of all of us — two-legged and four-legged. 🐶✨
