Vacation, Paradise, Whatever

So we made it!  The seventeen hour drive was alarmingly uneventful.  Henry read books, ate snacks and watched about 12 hours of Pixar movies.  Apparently he has a lot of his mama and Papaw in him, because he seemed THRILLED with this movie marathon.  As we pulled up to the condo we asked if he was ready to get out and he said, "No.  Lightening McQueen??"

Henry says: "This aint so bad!"

But once we got him in the condo and he saw the view he decided Florida was MUCH better than the car. although he did wake up this morning at six and say, "Papa...McQueen?"  I think he is going through Pixar withdraw.

Playing in the sand with Grandpa.  A little someone is MUCH more into the sand and beach this year.  Sand is now on the Henry approved list!

So is the Ocean.  Definitely on the Henry approved list as well. 

The Bio Girl family out to dinner our first night.  Seriously, is it just me or is Henry adorable? 

Yesterday me Nick and Henry worked hard on our first sand castle.  We took more photos and videos of this castle than we did of Henry....so we were sorta proud of it.  It rained hard last night, so I am thinking we will need to work on rebuilding today.

Someone has plans for an large west wing... I am thinking it will be hard work, but we can get it done...

In other vacation news, yesterday was Nana's birthday. We are so happy to be able to spend it with her down here in paradise

And with Uncle Wayne and Aunt BB! (who are here too, but are only in this one picture so far. Clearly need to work on that)

And one more of the family out to dinner.

After dinner we headed down to the pirate festival, which was pretty much over, but we  still managed to enjoy it! (I feel like this post is lacking in any transitions, but it is taking me FOREVER and I want to get to the beach, so we are just rolling with it)

Our own little pirate

working on his sword play.

You all, we are having a great time. And it's only Monday morning.
