About a month ago we headed over to St. Simon Island, Georgia. We stayed with some great friends who had just recently moved there. They opened their wonderful home to us crazies and all. Their house was about a mile from the beach which was very appealing to us. Unfortunately at the beginning of the week there was a tropical storm of sorts hanging out so we didn't spend much time at the beach. The time that was spent there was met with screams from children who were being slashed by the sand because it was so windy. They vowed never to go back again. While planning our trip we discovered that Disney World was about 4 hours from where we were staying. Of course we had to go for a day. We stayed 2 nights at a downtown Disney hotel and spent one day at the Magic Kingdom. The kids were thrilled when they found out. It was hot there and it did rain a few times (Thank you tropical storm Beryl) but we had a great time. After Disney we headed back to our friends house where we finally got a sunny day at the beach. It was fantastic until later that night when we discovered that even after multiple applications of sunscreen we all still got a little sunburned. Guess we were having too much fun. ;).

Couple of things:
1. Try not to forget your camera when you are going on vacation. If you do hopefully you have great friends who will lend you their camera.
2. Always reapply sunscreen one extra time. You will thank yourself later.
3. Playing in the sand in 40 mph winds isn't fun.
4. St. Simon Island is a great place to vacation.
5. We love the beach.
6. I thought about waiting to post this even longer just to bug Stacey.
7. She loves me anyway.
