Orange Beach 2015 Part 3

On our third day down, we decided to go to Pensacola. Last year we went down to visit Pensacola Christian Academy, which is the school where the Abeka videos are made. Our school uses those videos to teach our kids. We went back this year and the kids picked up a few things then we made a drive by the beach (across the 3 mile bridge), and came back to our beach to swim.


This was at Pensacola Beach, FL
Notice how pretty the water was! Unfortunately, it was not that pretty down on our beach when we got back. There was so much seaweed and so many jellyfish that it was near impossible to enjoy yourself. We stayed on the sand and then went in to get ready early because we were going to The Hangout!


Trey had a blast playing in the bubbles


The girls


Carlie requested a picture by herself


Finally got all three of them


Then Trey wanted his own picture


The coolest parents ever had to have one too ;)


Goodbye hangout, it was a great visit!


When we got back to the hotel Carl, Carlie, and Trey went out to play ball on the beach and me and Makena just chilled out. She read a book and I soaked it all in. There is just something about the beach that makes you just say, "wow God, you are one awesome Creator". He knows exactly how many grains of sand are there, how many fish, He created that beautiful sunrise/sunset...it all points to Him.


We also saw this little guy while we were sitting. He ran across the rail in front of us then ran down it and Makena finally got a picture of it.


It was a nice evening.


I love spending time with my family. I'm so thankful for all of them!

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
