Beaching it!!

We went to Orange Beach this weekend with the Hartels. Maurie's parents have a condo there - a big thanks to her wonderful parents for letting these two wildcats loose! We tried keeping the crumbs and stains to a minimum!!

Maurie and I were going to leave with the girls Thursday after MDO, but our sitter called that morning and sounded awful. She was sick!! Panic set in, as I frantically text messaged Maurie about our next move... which was - FIND ANOTHER SITTER!! So she and I began calling and texting girls and found someone! W.h.e.w.!! She couldn't leave until Friday morning (pooey!!) but Friday was better than no sitter at all! So, Friday morning we got an early start with the girls and the sitter. The girls were GREAT on the drive. We didn't stop once, and they kept each other entertained. They were too cute. We even ate lunch out when we arrived, and they were STILL good. Shocker! While there, we took them to the beach and pool - then had adult nights out for dinner and breakfast. Oh, how nice that was!! We can't wait to go back with these girls. They kept us smiling the entire time - and we got some much needed adult time in.
