Our annual waste-of-a-summer-vacation-week, aka, mid-Fall break, came in mid-September, and like the rest of Georgia we high-tailed it to Florida. The funny thing about our school breaks is that everyone heads south to either the beaches or Disney World. It's almost comical how everyone makes a break for it, but if you lived only a few hours away from the beach, you'd take off too!! We stayed at our favorite hotel in Miramar Beach, FL -- just outside of Destin and spent four days in the ocean, pool and playing in town. The boys had the pool to themselves the first night. The hotel is directly across the street from the beach, with it's own access, so off we marched with all our sand and beach toys! It took Ethan a bit to warm up to the idea of the ocean, so he did his favorite thing - played under his towel. Sand castles got started... But the water was calling. Jack got a skimboard and had a lot of fun learning
