Panama City Beach

It's taken me a few days to post on my trip to the beach.  This is because I stayed in Houston a few days to help out my sister-in-law as she has to get ready to put on her family reunion this weekend.


And last night, my first night home, all I could think about was sleep.


So naturally, I stayed up past midnight doing pointless crap.


And today I HAD to go see the new Harry Potter movie, because I am ashamed to call myself a fan and still not have seen it after a week and a half.


I only just now unpacked my suitcases.


So don't blame me for belated posts, I have my priorities straight people and Harry Potter comes before unpacking.


Back to the point, this past weekend Chelsea, my sister-in-law Jennifer, and my two nieces Elle and Grey all hit the road to visit my mom in Georgia and eventually hit the beach in Florida.

Here's the view from my mom's back porch:

Chelsea and I got to add a Georgia and Florida shaped patch to our old Chilifest shirt's turned roadtrip shirts from last year.

My family keeps the rainbow umbrella business alive.

Grey's french braid I did for her, I think it's so cute!

Here's a video of Elle, Banks (my second cousin) and Grey all playing on the beach:

Grey learned to swim without her floaties while we were on vacation, here's one of her first solo swims:

I could bore you with details, but really, I have other things on my random priority list to get to at this point.  

Like unpacking for real...
