Fall at the Beach



We were lucky enough to get to go to Boca last week for 6 whole days.  The weather was beautiful, pretty much the same as Bham, but with that great beach breeze that makes everything so nice.  

The beach and our family are having issues though, first TD Lee hits when we go to Perdido, then Red Tide strikes while we are in Boca.  The side effects (wheezing, sneezing, runny nose) were only felt on the beach, so we still got to go on plenty of golf cart rides and enjoy being outside, but the masses of dead fish on the beach kept us from digging sand castles and playing in the ocean for most of the trip.  

Luckily, Giddy pulled through and raked them up just in time for R to have two days of glorious sand digging- which is his favorite thing to do on the beach.  

But there was plenty else to do- especially on Saturday.  We have two teams to pull through now- since we have met the Sweeney's down here at the beach and love their family so much, it's hard not to want them to win!  

Someone had plenty of Roll Tides to say during the game.  He's gotten to where he understands that Alabama wears red, and when he sees a football team without red on, he says, "Dat's not Roll Tide!"  How smart.

Mem (Or Bo as R has named her) made some yummy tailgate food and R went through his usual "hmmm, let seee" process of deciding which cookie to eat.  

Its a hard decision...

"Dis one!"

And after a long game of rooting on the two teams, he finally settled for some stroller time with the doggies, then it was off to bed to rest up for another fun day at the beach.
