Before the start of a new school year and all the responsibilities to go along with it, we packed up and headed out to orange beach for a full week! We did absolutely nothing and it was wonderful! Of course, it flew by and those long days of laying by the kiddie pool or lounging in a chair with a book in hand all came to an abrupt end. My best friend Katie went with us! She is one of those friends that will drop whatever she is doing and just load up for a road trip and enjoy every minute of it. I love her dearly and am so thankful and blessed to have her ;) Jane Kimmel had a blast! She enjoyed playing and building sand castles on the beach, as well as making friends in the kiddie pool. She actually got a tan too, haha! Lewis joined us on Friday afternoon, and although we had to leave the next morning, it was nice to share a day with him at the beach. I did not take many pictures, because I was tormented at the thought of sand getting on my camera, but I did get a few! On a side note, school starts on Wednesday and I am excited about getting back into a routine and it being my last semester, but nervous about what is to come. Patience and perseverance have been at the top of my prayer list, so if you get around to thinking about it... send one up for me! Continue to pray for Lewis as well. We miss him very much and are ready to be back together as a family! Enjoy the pics from our wonderful vaca... it was heavenly :)
