Beach Baby!

We spent about 10 days in Destin, Florida with my mom and dad, and the Pechler family. We have been wishing for warm weather here and boy did we get it in Florida! It was HOT! We spent most days down by the beach floating in the waves! Here are some pictures from our trip!

Hannah was the life of the party each night at the dinner table! She knows how to make every one laugh!

Kori and Kasy were great at entertaining her down at the beach! They made her all sorts of sand, water, and seaweed buckets to play in! What great cousins!

Kori even snorkeled to find some shells for Hannah to play with in her water bucket.

I was surprised at how much Hannah loved the ocean! She wasn't afraid of the waves at all! It didn't matter if she was in your arms or in her float, she was all giggles! I think she even liked the taste of salt water! YUCK!

We were so grateful to Aunt Beverly and Mike for opening their beach house to us! We always have a great time with them when we visit! They sure do know how to make someone relax on vacation! Thank you to you both!

Hannah's 1st Birthday!

We were in Destin, Florida with Nonie and Papa's friends Aunt Beverly, Mike, and Delaney on Hannah's first birthday. Even though we already had a birthday party for her back in Rome, we couldn't resist but to celebrate the big day!

This time around Hannah knew the singing was for her and was clapping right along! She still didn't quite get how to blow the candles out...maybe by birthday #2?

The one thing she had figure out was how to eat a piece of birthday cake. Actually, she had no trouble with that at all! Look how sweet! She knows her mommy loves chocolate just as much as she does! What a sweetheart!

Look at that face! That plate was completely empty by the time she was done. Not a crumb left! As long as she had chocolate cake in front of her, she let me leave the silly hat on her! As soon as the cake was gone...off with the hat!
