West Ship Island

One of the best parts of our trip was going to West Ship Island in the Gulf of Mexico.  It was a lot of fun for the kids and the beaches there were a lot prettier and had bigger waves.  We took an 11mile (one way) ferry ride to the island.  It took about an hour to get there and the kids got to see lots of neat stuff on the way!

And we're off!! 
See you later, Gulfport!
 
If you look closely you can see a dolphin fin.  We saw lots of dolphins, but they were so fast, I could never get a picture of them!  It was a little frustrating, but it was way cool.
 
Ft. Massachusetts is located close to where our boat docked on the North side of the Island.
You could tour the fort, but we didn't because the kids were so interested in getting in the water.
I do regret not going in it, though.
 
 
She gives the Island a big "thumbs-up"!
 
Carl and the kids jumped right in!

I thought this was pretty cool!  You can see Makena under the water.  I told you it was clear!
 
So much fun!

He was in heaven!
 
He's running like David Hasselhoff!
 
He got buried!
 
My view was looking pretty good!

Almost time to leave!
 
 He wasn't happy that we didn't get to sit where we sat on the way to the Island.  He literally pouted the whole hour back!
 

Yep, on her phone again!
 
We were a little red, and really tired, but it was a fun day and I would highly recommend it to anybody!

Back To School Photo Shoot: The Girls

Three Doses of Happiness

Laundry piled up, dishes in the sink, phone buzzing with many emails, toys all over the house.......sounds like an absolute perfect time to go outside and relax with my kiddos! Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
