#FlashBackFriday - Sanibel 2014

We loaded up the truck and set out for our annual trip to Sanibel on Thursday around noon.  Our goal was to entertain the girls for the 1st half of the trip when we had all of our energy and then prayed that they would sleep all night and we would happily arrive in Sanibel the next morning.  Which kind of happened..
The girls were ready with their toys and books
 
The trip down actually didn't go too terrible except for the fact that I started driving before Atlanta around 11pm when I was starting to get tired and my contacts started bothering me.  I'm pretty sure I had a mini anxiety attack and made Scott drive again.  Our precious cargo but too much pressure on me!  So Scott ended up driving most of the way and we were both delirious when we arrived the next morning.  We met the Tuckers for breakfast at the hotel and headed over to Sanibel for a little day trip before we checked into our condo on Saturday.

Delaney and Kinley all ready for the beach!
Laiken immediately loved the beach!  She played in the sand and crawled everywhere!
Kinley, on the other hand, took a little longer to warm up and did NOT want to touch the sand at first.  She quickly got over it and was in heaven!
Daddy and his girl
Laikey and her buddy Brayden

We celebrated St. Patrick's Day and I tried to have a mini photoshoot with the girls by the fountain at Perwinkle Place.  Kinley, always being the helper, was trying to get Laiken to look up and smile.  :)

Kinley quickly became a little fish and loved her barbie!

My best investment of the trip was definitely the double beach stroller that we rented.  It was dropped off at our condo and picked up at the end of our trip.  We took lots of walks and the girls took a few good naps there so we could still lay by the pool. Win win!

I was all about the photoshoots and tried to get a few pictures after dinner one night.  I loved these nautical outfits from Gymboree!

I love waking up to this view in the morning!  Sweet sleepy faces and the beach!

Just another day at the beach.  We packed the double stroller to the brim and hauled all our beach stuff every day along with our beach chairs.  We set up quite a camp site but there's no more traveling light for us.
Sometimes Laiken didn't care for the sand and did this funny crawl...
This little one was pretty relaxed for most of the trip thank goodness.
Smooches!
The sand castle queen!
Kinley kind of worships Delaney so they were beach buddies for sure.
Laikey Lou passed out...who wouldn't want to nap on the beach! 
Sweet pictures of these two...

On the hunt...
Fun in the water with daddy!
