Amy and Noah were there to pick us up in the crazy thunderstorm. Wednesday we went to the outlet mall to do some shopping. Amy and I haven't gotten to do that together since they moved. We had a great time and Payton of course made out the best. Mitch and I got a couple of things. Thursday we got up and packed up the car and headed for the beach. We traveled about 2 hours to Siesta Key. We rented the cutest little house a 1/2 a block from the beach. We were a little worried when we got there is was raining and continue to rain the remainder of the evening. We lucked out though the next day was partly cloudy and we spent all day at the beach. Payton had a great time, she loved the sand and had a ball bull dosing all of the sandcastles that Mitch built. 
She loved the water too, played in layed on her belly and let the waves crash into her. They were small waves since we were on the Gulf side. She even took a nap under the umbrella next to Noah.

Both of the kids did great. Amy and Noah had to stay inside a little bit more but that is only expected with a 7 week old baby. beach photo opp
Besides being close to the beach we were also close to a strip mall around the corner with awesome restaurants. Amy and I had the best crab legs ever one night. Even Noah got close enough to taste them.
After dinner back at Amy and Luke's place, the mommies and their angels
Possibly husband and wife someday. An older woman!!
The last day we went to a park close to the house and it had tons of swings, slides, and a water spray area. Payton ended up being the only one for about 30 min, just enough time to have all the fun she needed. She loved it, even though she got it in the face a couple of times.
We had a wonderful trip and had so much fun with the Helm's. We are looking forward to our next trip whenever that might be.
