Concordia Beach Week 2011 - September

This year, we had our 3rd annual Concordia Beach trip. The last two years we have gone to Anna Maria Island, but this year, we were in Destin. The clan consisted of 8 adults and 8 children 7 and under! Our group just continues to grow. We had a great time as usual, and I was very thankful that each family had their own room. It's nice to just be able to get away from the action for a few minutes if you need to. There was a lot of jelly fish out, but fortunately, they weren't the really bad ones. If you got stung, it only itched for a few minutes, and it was over. As the week went on, we saw less and less. The kids did great and loved the ocean!
Before we got to Destin, we stayed the night in Panama City and took Natalie put put golfing for the first time. We all had a fun time. :)





One thing I will not forget is Natalie and the crown. Maddi Perkins had brought a toy princess crown, and Natalie was like the kid with the rain boots all week. She wore it EVERYWHERE...including the beach. It was hilarious!


















The kids loved to race home. Unfortunately, it looks like Natalie inheritted my "slow" gene - I don't think a track star will be on her list of HS accomplishments. :)









Ethan celebrated his 7th birthday while we were there!




On our way back home, we stopped in Wikiwachi and saw the Mermaid show!










Finally, we stoped in Tarpon Springs and had some tasty Greek food!




What a great trip!
