We love this place. It holds such dear memories for just Kendall and I before kids and now even more memories with the addition of two precious girls and one more on the way! From college trips down here to the perfect proposal, to trips with friends & with Kendall's family, we have piled up quite a few fond memories and now that we are even closer to the beach I have a feeling we might make a few more trips to the sandy white beaches in the future!
This particular trip came at a really fun time for us. Two weekends after packing up our belongings and moving to Auburn, we were able to meet in Destin to reunite with our bestest friends from Birmingham and their children. It's hard to imagine living life more than 5 minutes down the road from them. Couldn't even begin to count the number of dinners on our patio or dinners at their place in addition to park, pool, and hang outs just about any free chance we had available. :) We are so grateful for their friendship, for the way they have loved us and served us over the years, but especially the last few months of our crazy lives with moving, pregnancy, dr's appts, & a husband who had to leave his pregnant wife & twins behind in Bham for 2 months to start his new job! We will forever be thankful for them and cherish the 5 years of knowing them. We know this isn't the end so that's why we kicked off our time apart with a weekend at the beach!
We had the best time! From making our usual stop at the Donut Hole for breakfast to jumping waves & playing on the beach with the kiddos, to updating our wardrobes at the outlets and dinners out at the Back Porch & McGuire's, it was a full, full weekend. Apart from the littles waking up at the crack of dawn as the sun came shining through the window, the weekend felt complete! Sad to part ways after such a fun time, but just a good excuse to begin the plans of another family getaway with the Edwards!
