Rosemary Beach Vacation-Part 2

Friends, we have just two weeks + one day until everyone goes back to school. We’re counting down the days, getting things organized, and are ALMOST ready!

I’m back today with Part 2 of our Rosemary Beach vacation! You can see Part 1 and the New Orleans recap as well!

I’m picking up right where we left off but realized I forgot a really good shot from the 4th of July…

How cool is this?! I’m telling you our views for the fireworks were amazing!

We spent lots of our time throwing the football at the beach.

We biked over to the beach daily and then would bike back to our house. I always thought it gave us just enough time to lose the sand but somehow our house always still had lots of sand!

One day I said that I refused to make sandwiches for lunch so we grabbed lunch out at Cowgirl Kitchen. The girls were there too, but at this exact moment they’d walked inside a shop.

This girl is a FAN of the beach!

I snagged a few more cute pics of the Rosemary scenery.

Rosemary Beach has nightly activities and on this particular night we went to the magic show straight off the beach. Don’t let this pic fool you, about five minutes after Tab took it, it started pouring rain and we were drenched.

After several days of friends joining us, we were then back to the Slaughter Six. We had a family night out to Surfing Deer. {We all six gave this meal five stars. Delish!}

She had this cute little outfit and snuck her crocs on right as we walked outside the door! She’s a sneaky one!

Bowen’s gaining on me and just might be my height right now. What a gift it was for us to get away and just have fun!

Kilwin’s was just about one hundred steps from our house so we HAD to pop in for an ice cream. We all agreed. We think heaven is gonna smell JUST like Kilwin’s.

Part 2 has a picture of the cute little gym in Carillon Beach, Paradise! ha! I’d forgotten I’d taken this!

And on our very last night we took the kids to George’s in Alys Beach for our last night out. It was close so we all rode bikes which is a bit tricky when you’re a girl in a dress all dressed up. Britt didn’t let that stop her!

We ate here earlier in the week with our friends but it was an adult-only night so the kids hadn’t visited on this trip.

I mean…you guys! This meal was one of my FAVORITES! Fried grouper, cheesy grits, slaw and hushpuppies?? YES!!

And just like that, our two weeks were over. We had so much fun, made some AMAZING memories and were so thankful we got to get away with our people. Just a sweet little encouragement for us all to take the trip. 🙂

Before our trip was actually over though…we drove to east Texas for Tab’s family reunion. His family reunion’s are a little unique {or maybe yours are this way too?} in that there’s always a theme and usually a speaker of some kind. This year the theme was sports so they asked my favorite guy to speak a little bit.
