Beach Babies

I love this picture because Annabeth still looks like my baby.





Jackson is like his mama and can't keep his eyes open in the sun.



Vacation pictures have a way of making everything look peachy.



That's why I want you to see this one. Don't go getting any ideas that our family life is picture perfect. Love covers over a multitude of sins. (1 Peter 4:8)



When we do get perfect moments, we enjoy them.

So was this part of the Gulf all you dreamed it would be?
Looks like y'all had a great time & great weather.

My first trip to Panama City Beach was for youth camp, too! I loved it there and haven't been back in several years. I'm so glad you were able to combine family and ministry time. These days will be a treasure for all times - the perfect and even the not-so-perfect moments.

Enjoy, enjoy! And enjoy the return to 'normalcy' at home, too!

i have a special place in my heart for PCB. spent a spring break there on missions in campus crusade for Christ in college, fell in love with it, then turned right around and got sent there for summer project that very next summer! :) God used that place to build me some spiritual chops. Love it!

Kirsten said...

I, too, love the bow in her hair at the beach! It's fun being a girl! :)

My son does the same thing. It's like his eyes can't take the sun. So every pic I have of him at the beach is just like jackson's. Too funny!

thanks for the sweet pictures. i can remember pictures of my 3 girls (there were only 4 years spanning oldest and youngest) - we had lots of good smiling photos, but there was always one with at least one of them crying..

love to you!

After reading all these posts my heart is so happy. And at the same time, I'm itching to go visit Seaside now. Looked adorable! You got some wonderful pictures, friend.

You have a precious family. God bless you.
