Catching Up....Rosemary Beach 2013

Where did June go???!!!??? I know I speak for every teacher out there when I say that I have no idea how half of the summer has already passed, and in one months time I will be back in my classroom preparing to get back to the grind called work. Several times this summer I have run into families of students that I have taught and every time I comment on how I can't believe how fast summer is flying by, they always reply with how they are so glad there is only one more month until school starts :) To each his own! I am SO enjoying the slower pace of life. Obviously...thus the lack of blogging. Life is full. It is busy. It is exhausting. It is hilarious. It is messy. It is filled with "time outs" lately (mainly for my 4 year old...but sometimes, I wish someone would put me in time out!). I have found myself still in pjs at 1:00 in the afternoon if we have nothing on the agenda for the day and y'all...it is nice! I have to remind myself that sometimes it is good to not have anything on the agenda. To just stay home and play. My boys are changing every single day. They are growing. Alex is talking up a storm and right behind Will, wanting to do EVERY thing that big brother is into.
The biggest thing that we did in June was head to the beach for the 3rd annual trip to Rosemary Beach with my fam. I will let the pictures tell the story...the main points being Alex hated the sand, Will LOVED sleeping in a bunk bed, My boys loved waking up and falling asleep and spending all moments in between with their cousins, we visited sugar shack more often than I'd like to admit :), George's is always a favorite for dinner, Alex would rather eat than swim (or really do anything else), and first crab hunting experience = success! These pictures are all out of order, but they uploaded that way and I am too lazy/tired to try and rearrange all of them :)
