Orange Beach…Day 6

Another amazing day at the beach! We had a pretty low key morning, which is always nice. Then, late morning, Cleamon came to visit! Cleamon, aka Uncle Clea, is one of my dad’s best friends. I’ve known him since we moved to Louisana when I was 18 months old, and he was immediately part of our family. So, it’s always fun to get to visit with him! We went to LuLu’s (which is owned by Jimmy Buffet’s sister) for lunch with him (Penny and Liz stayed home, since Penny was just about ready for a nap). Somehow, I didn’t manage to get a single picture with Addie and Uncle Clea. Or just Cleamon, for that matter. Hopefully we’ll see him again soon! We had fun at lunch, and it was GOOD!

GiGi was cold, so Addie had to wear a jacket. Hahaha.

Playing a ring toss like game that she was OBSESSED with.

Once we got home from lunch, it was time to hit the beach. We dug holes, built sandcastles, ran, and jumped over waves.

GiGi bought both girls rakes. Which Addie LOVED. She carried them everywhere.

Concentrating hard on something.

Penny woke up from her nap, and headed down ready to play!

Taking a little break from all that work.

Later that night, we went for some beach pictures. I thought Addie would look VERY beachy and sweet in a cute, flowy white dress. Addie had other plans. She NEEDED to wear sunglasses. So, these didn’t look quite as I had planned, but they are SO VERY Addie. Which I love.

Penny’s MiMi (Lib) made Penny a sweet dress to wear. She looked VERY cute in it!

Addie was running WILD all around while we were attempting to take her picture. This girl was made for the beach.

Here’s GiGi practicing her Shot Put through. Ha. Actually, after Addie pleading “again” for the 543rd time to be swung, this could be where GiGi’s back finally gave up.

Sunsets on the beach are my favorite.

Such fun! I can’t believe tomorrow is our last full day. So sad.
