Panama City

This morning I woke up in my own comfortable bed in good 'ol SC.  After about 9 hours of driving (with kids you stop a lot for potty breaks!) we're relaxing in a comfortable hotel room in Panama City, FL. Bobby surprised the kids & me with a vacation - and boy does he deserve a vacation after all the work he's done this past year!!   It's so beautiful here - and thankfully the oil hasn't reached P. City.  We're praying that it stays away (which seems likely.)  We arrived, quickly unloaded the van, ate a quick supper and headed down to the beach.  

Hannah loves the ocean and after a few minutes wasn't nervous at all.  Sammy is still unsure (I don't like he likes the sand being washed out from under his feet) but loved playing in the sand and swimming in the hotel pool.  We put his water wings on and spent some time showing him how to kick his feet.  In no time at all he was swimming back & forth between Bobby & me.  Now we've all had a bath, the kids are asleep and Bobby & I are relaxing.  I have the best husband in the world!!!

{I was worried that Hannah's Asiatic Lilies would bloom while we were gone.  They bloomed overnight and we got to see them before we left this morning!}

 

{It was a looong trip!}

I'm going to try to update daily so I won't have so many pictures to upload when we return home.  Check back tomorrow!!
