Rosemary Beach 2014

Look at those freckles!

Fun evening on Lake Powell with friends.


Sunset snacks!

Shelby and Scott in the pool. She LOVED the pool.

Digging holes... our main beach activity.

We had another GREAT week at the gulf! This was the second time we stayed in our favorite rental and the fourth time in our favorite little neighborhood. We got to enjoy some fun things that are quickly becoming our own little traditions:
  • Bike rides to Charlie's Donut Truck and Fonville Press for donuts and iced coffee for breakfast and splash pad and playground time for Shelby. 
  • Tons of beach and pool time. The weather was absolutely perfect the week we were there. Not a cloud in the sky and temperatures in the 80s with low humidity and enjoyable evenings.
  • Thanks to the good weather, the water was perfect - crystal clear and so green! 
  • Shelby was a little more comfortable at the pool than the beach, but we spent at least a couple hours at the beach every morning digging holes and building castles.
  • One evening we went into Seaside for dinner and a children's performance of Cinderella in the amphitheater. It was great and Shelby loved seeing the play.
  • There was live music nearly every evening in the little pavilion of shops near us. Shelby had lots of fun running around and goofing off way past her bedtime! 
  • I rented a paddle board one day and had some fun paddling around in the gulf. The water was pretty calm and very clear so I got to see some stingrays swim by. Allegedly a small black tip shark swam by but I didn't see it.
  • Some friends our ours live down there and they have a 1-year-old so we spent some time when them and the guys got to have fun with their new toys... remote control helicopters with GoPro cameras attached. Scott got some cool aerial footage that I'll post soon. 
  • We hit up all of our favorite restaurants and ate way too much good food. 
We can't wait to go back. Our little vacations are something special that we look forward to every year. See more pictures in our gallery.
