Family Vacation

We had a wonderful week on the beach in Gulf Shores. The weather was terrific, the food impeccable, and the company outstanding. Here are a few (million) pictures of our trip.

Quinn showed me the mussels that she caught and now she is showing me her muscles!

the boys looked like this for the majority of the vacation...kidding! but they do eat a ton!

green team...is it possible that they are ALL making the same face?

all the guys in a heated game of hearts...Big Daddy was victorious.

Quinn and Katy eat some boiled peanuts..yum!

that big smile that we all love...

We played a little Wii on vacation...

Brad and Big Daddy took Tyndale to the Naval Aviation Museum to see the Blue Angels and all the big planes...he loved it (and I think they did too)!

We were a lot concerned when these guys showed up with head-to-toe haz-mat gear...including helmets...to pick up the 'tar balls' that washed up on the beach. They assured us that everything was fine, and so we went on with the vacation - hope we don't regret that.

So I know it looks like Tyndale is picking his nose in this picture, but I thought it was a great picture of the boys anyway...boys will be boys!

The Boerners at our favorite restaurant, The Tin Top.

Quinn, Violet and Gimmie at the Tin Top

Katy and Michael at the Tin Top...beautiful couple!

Michael, Quinn and Brad at the Tin Top...we realized right after this picture that Quinn and Michael have the exact same eye color...lucky girl!

Big Daddy putting up the flag on the beach cabana.

This was a series of pictures of Brad and Tyndale, and Brad had his eyes closed in every one. Seriously....out of like ten....

Betsy and Gimmie-san preparing sushi.

Katy and the girls coloring pre-dinner.

...and much of the trip looked like this...haha!

Big Daddy and Tyndale saying good morning to the ocean.

A lot of the time on the beach looked just like this! Treasure hunters!

Big Daddy and Gimmie with ALL the grandkids...I think this was the best shot out of about a million...haha!

All the kids in a super bath...fun! We had such a wonderful week and are thankful for an unbelievable family!
