Despite the news, rumors, and fears by most, we took our chances and headed south to the beach. This was our annual Anthony family beach trip taken every summer with my parents. I honestly expected things to be bad and for oil and tar to be all in the water but it was actually beautiful. Tar balls did wash up one afternoon but were gone by the next morning. I took over 400 pictures and after I went through my camera and deleted some I download 315 to my computer. No, I won’t torture you with all of them, but get ready because I have lots to share!

Notice the nice window covering we made for Ford. The tape is compliments of all the stuff I keep in my purse!!! You just never know what you might need.

As you can see the trip was a success. We only forgot one bag in Senatobia with phone chargers, baby monitors, my glasses, and the noise makers for peaceful sleeping purposes, but other than that everything went fairly smoothly. The ride home was a different story thanks to Trey’s bright idea to go home a new way. I got upset when we turned around for the THIRD time, but it was nothing a quick stop at the gas station and a Twix couldn’t fix.
Thanks Mom and Dad for another wonderful trip to the beach. We really had a wonderful time and made some lifelong memories. We love you both VERY much!!!!!!
