Visitors from the North

We had quite the fun and relaxing next few days with our special visitors. In all of the travels and many amazing places that Chris and I have lived, this is the first time that Chris' parents have seen us in our home away from home. We showed them a vacation away from kids and chaotic schedules and I like to think that they got some rest and rejuvenation from it. We told them to sleep in as late as they wanted and as soon as we were all bright eyed and bushy tailed and ready for our day we would show them the little things our town had to offer.

 We explored Alligator Alley and saw us some gators.  We took them to some of our favorite eats around town and even tried a brand new one that we saw on the Travel Channel.  We played frisbee golf. Twinkee insisted on showing them her favorite park on the bay. We played card game after card game. And no trip to Southern Alabama would be complete without a taking a trip to the Gulf.

Down by the bay.

Travel Channel sang praises of goodness about this place but I would give it a solid C.  The BBQ sauce was just a little too sweet for me.  Linda and Charlie seemed to enjoy it, so really that is all that matters.

They were both naturals at frisbee golf.

The wind made being in the water a little chilly, but it wasn't anything we couldn't handle.

Their visit was over much too fast but we hope that they enjoyed being here as much as we enjoyed having them here.
