Vacation, Part 1

Last week was vacation week for our family. Jason had to work in Bay Minette the first part of the week so the boys and I tagged along. We stayed at the Grand Hotel in Point Clear and had a great time! The hotel had a big pool with a water slide and the boys loved it. Tyler could go down the slide by himself wearing his floaties and I think he slid down over 50 times in two days.Matthew loved the slide, too, but, obviously, he couldn't go down by himself so we were exhausted from carrying him to the top and sliding down numerous times.The hotel is located on Mobile Bay so the boys enjoyed playing in the sand and bay as well. Jason and Tyler took a ride in a kayak and Tyler thought that was so cool. Of course, Jason was exhausted because his kayak partner wasn't a very good paddler!We even made it over to Gulf Shores one night to play Putt-Putt...one of Tyler's favorite things to do on vacation. Thankfully, there wasn't anyone behind us for a long time. Tyler likes to play every hole over and over again and he always tells us how many strokes it took him by saying "Hole in 2" or "Hole in 5". He didn't quite understand that you only say that when you make a hole in one!Tyler enjoyed the putt-putt while Matthew enjoyed the jungle safari car. He couldn't figure out what that monkey was doing sitting beside him!

We had a great time at the Grand Hotel. Hopefully we can tag along with Daddy on a work trip again sometime soon.
