MPHA in Destin!!

I was fortunate enough to attend the MPHA convention in Destin again this year, and so we decided to go a few days early to make a week out of it! The girls, me, LoLo and PaPa left Thursday morning and stayed in Sandestin until last Wednesday! Chase, AC, Thomas, and MC were staying with her parents and B at their condo, so we got to hang out with the family all week!! It was beautiful weather and we had a very relaxing time! 
The girls all packed and ready to go!

Yes I made all these pocket Ts too!

Madi thought she needed to use the potty in route, but it was a false alarm. Either way, we were prepared!!


As soon as we made it to Sandestin, we met Chase and them at their pool!
I had enough points for a free night at the Hilton, so we stayed there on Thursday night before moving to the condo on Friday. It was an awesome room with 2 queen beds and bunk beds!!
Friday on the beach:
All the grands except Madi love the beach and the waves!!  Madi prefers the pool!

Friday night we went to. Bawtowne Warf !
Supper at the Oyster House!
...Oh you know...just a little zip-lining for the big kids!
We were so proud of them! I still can't believe they zip-lined like 150 ft up in the air over a lake!!

PaPa pulled Emma's 2nd tooth after we made it back to the condo and Thomas spent the night with us!




Saturday we decided to just hang at the pool! It was HOT!! 

The waves at the beach on Sunday were CRAZY!! It was red flag weather!

Sunday night we ate at The Crab Trap (my fave!!) and took those perfect family beach pics!!
We actually got more of these kind than the good ones! Ha!

Carmen and Shaina also came for the conference that started bright and early Monday morning! Mom, Anna Claire, and I went shopping after I got out of class and Carmen, Shaina, and I FINALLY had our girls night we've been planning for two years! ;) fruity drinks and cookie dough!!

Tuesday night we had to attend the Award's banquet for the conference but that was after a little sunning!

We all headed home Wednesday morning :(. Bye bye beach!...we'll see ya again in July! ;)
