Labor Day Weekend

Oh my gosh, Labor Day Weekend was SO much fun! My Aunt Kim got married at The Tides Clubhouse where my Papaw and Grandma Bunny have a condo. It is so beautiful and right on the Gulf. We used to go there a lot for family vacations. My aunt and uncle, 3 girl cousins - Elizabeth and her husband Dustin, Rebecca and Rachel - my brother Allan and his wife Betsy and my parents, grandparents and Spencer and I were all there! Each family had their own condo right next to each other. We would stay up so late playing games and talking and just hanging out.
My mom's side of the family is a very interesting, but so much fun, bunch. They are all very loud, very vocal and they can keep you laughing for days. Needless to say, we didn't sleep much and probaly lost 5 pounds just from burning calories from laughing. Which is a good thing because we ate so much junk food. I had a McDonald's hamburger for the first time in who knows how long. It was actually pretty good - maybe because I was so hungry and it was either eat that or starve. OK, enough rambling and now to pictures. :)

Rachel, Papaw and I about to head to Kim's wedding - we're in Papaw's condo.

Papaw married Aunt Kim and now Uncle Kent. Their vows only took 3 minutes! We timed it! They said their vows just as the sun was about to set over the water. It was so beautiful!

Yea! I love this picture! This is the first picture of the four of us with Allan and Betsy married! This was right before the ceremony.

Awww....my dad and I :)

So, the wedding was Saturday night. On Sunday afternoon, as a part of the wedding festivities, we all went on a dolphin excursion in the Gulf. I thought this was going to be so LAME-O but it was actually pretty cool! I even got some sun!
These dolphins were like 3 feet from the back of the boat! They were so cute jumping around! There was even a little baby!

And here is another one of my favorites! All the cousins plus spouses. These are my mom's sister's girls. I love my cousins so much and I am so glad we have gotten to see each a lot these past few months!


Since we all had so much fun being all together, my Papaw said it is now going to be a Labor Day tradition! We are all going to meet in North Redington Beach every Labor Day! woohoo! :)
