• Last week I went on vacation with my family (minus Paul because he had to work) :(. My mom, my dad, Jason, his friend Josh, and I went to Miramar Beach in Florida, which is right next to Destin. The vacation was QUITE relaxing -- eating out occasionally, shopping, cooking in the condo, going to the beach, watching tv, and doing whatever else we wanted to do. I got a little bit of a tan...which is good for me because I was quite white (and actually still am!). I really enjoyed getting to spend time away and relax. Below are some pictures from our adventure...

  

  A pretty flower that was on a random bush outside of our beach cottage.

  

  My mom and I at the beach...the sun was soooo bright so our eyes are a bit squinty!

  

  A little friend I "met" at the beach.  He kept popping out of this hole right next to my beach towel.  :)  He's pretty cute.

  

  My mom and I crabbing (or at least trying to) on the bayside of the beach.  I actually think I was looking at the hermit crabs attacking each other!  It was the weirdest thing...

  

  Sitting...well falling...in the oversized chair at the Sandestin Village.

  

  We went to eat lunch at a really good barbeque place...I must have been listening intently to what my mom was saying.

  

  I thought this quote was really cool.

  

  Two really cool sunset pictures from the first full day that we were there...

  

  We really had fun on our vacation!  For the most part, I've had such a fun and relaxing summer getting to go on two vacations (Hawaii and then Destin/Miramar Beach)!  I took classes the first part of the summer, but both of them were online so they weren't too bad.  I can't believe the summer is almost over!  I'm excited about going back up to school -- this should be my last (or second to last) quarter!  I'm going to try to "journal" more often...I feel like I have a lot more I could say in this post, but I think I'll just wait...  : )
