Hey Guys!! So I have been wanting to blog for a long time now. I said something about blogging like a year ago, and everyone made fun of me. Ok, mainly just JK, but still it definately discouraged me from starting one. There are a lot of things that I would love to blog about, but I am just going to start this little blog for now because in the past I have not been that good at keeping up with things. I start out doing really good, and than I get crazy busy and I don't finish working on it. So, we are gonna give it a try....

Beach

Ok, so who says that a quick weekend trip isn’t worth it.  Definitely not me. It was totally worth it.  We had so much fun.  My family, Ross, his family, Aly, her family, Shelby, and Hilly G loaded up and headed down south.  We had so much fun!!  First things first, on our way down there (while still in Huntsville) we witnessed a horrible wreck.  It was AWFUL, but on the brighter side, I got to call 911 for the first time in my life.  Yea, I was pretty pumped.  I also realized that next time someone needs to call 911, don’t ask me.  I am COMPLETELY directionally challenged, and did I mention we were still in Huntsville.  Sad, I know.  So anyways, we stopped at Cracker Barrel for dinner, and headed back on the road.  Note..NEVER get the Wendy’s Coffee Toffee Frosty.  Blugh, Ugh, Blugh!!  Can we say NASTY!!!!  I don’t know what was floating in that Frosty, but it def. wasn’t toffee.  So, we chunked the dessert, and headed back on the road.

So, around midnightish, we made it to the Beach!!  We dropped Jk off at the camper, and the girls jetted on down to the beach.  We didn’t stay long, there were definitely some creepers down there.  So, on to the hotel.  That was an experience all in itself.  So, lets just say DON’T STAY at the MICROTELL in Gulf Shores.  3 rooms later, we decided to stay in the second room that we looked at.  It was so nasty, but the other 2 were 10 times worse.  So, we decided that we would head to Wal-Mart at 2:30 in the morning and buy new sheets.  So, we wondered around half out of it, laughing our heads off at things that we knew wouldn’t be funny if we weren’t so tired.

So, ridiculous, but so much fun!!  An hour or so later, we finally made it back to the hotel.  Where, we put our clean sheets on, and laid in bed laughing until we couldn’t anymore.  I know that our neighbors hated us, but man I definitely needed that laugh.  I don’t remember the last time I laughed that much. 

So, sometime around 10ish, me and Aly roll out of bed.  Hil and Shelby had been up for awhile, and they got us breakfast.  We got ready, and we headed for the beach!!  Woo Whoo!!  So, me being the retard that I am decided, Egh, who needs sunscreen.  Sounded great at the time.  I am defiantly paying the consequences now, anyways.  So, we set up camp, and we head to the ocean.  Oh man, it was kinda cold at first, but once we got wet, it felt so good.  It was the PERFECT day!!  We rode the waves, we laid out, we played football, and Frisbee.  We made AMAZING sand castles, and we played some beach volleyball.  Oh yea, did  I mention, we got majorly BLISTERED!!  We stayed out all day, and headed in around 5ish.

The boys had brought us Chick Fil A for lunch, man it was so good.  We were starving than, but by dinner time, we were even more hungry!!  We got all fixed up, and we decided to go take pictures, only problem was it had already started getting dark.  We took pics anyways.

When we finally got done with that we headed to the Oyster House.  It was pretty good if I do say so myself.  We also celebrated Paisley’s b-day with a cookie cake.  So, we headed back to the hotel, me and Aly were MISERABLE.  We got TOTALLY TOASTED!!!!  It was awful, but we collapsed on the bed, and tried as hard as we could to get comfortable.  We decided that we would get up Sun, and go watch the sunrise on the beach.  BEST IDEA EVER *Britney*

Ok, so Sun morning we woke up bright and early, and headed to the beach.  It was beautiful.. the best day EVER!!  I was miserably sore, but it didn’t matter, the sunrise was amazing!!  We took a TON of pics.  I guess I will spare you guys from the 5 million pics.  I just don’t know how I can chose between the fifty million, but I guess I will.

So, after we took some pictures on the beach, we decided to head to FLORIDA.  WE took pictures of us standing in 2 states.  That was fun, I slept on the way there haha.

Next we went to McDonalds in FL, and can you believe that they DID NOT HAVE BISCUIT AND GRAVY!!  Total bummer!!  I was so sad.  I couldn’t believe it!!  So, I settled for a chicken biscuit and than went and slept in the truck until everyone was ready to go.  I was so STINKING MISERABLE!!  We headed back to the hotel, and stopped at the Happy Shack.

So, after the Happy Shack, we headed to the hotel, me and Aly got a quick nap, and than we got our stuff together and headed to Lamberts.  Oh man, Lamberts is so so good!!  I love the rolls!!  After Lamberts, we headed home.  It was so sad to leave, but it was the best trip EVER!!!!  I needed this trip, and it was so much fun.  More than I could have ever asked for.  I am glad that I have the friends and family that I have, and I am thankful for them EVERYDAY!!  Well for now I'm all blogged out..talk at you guys later!!!!
