Vacation days 2 and 3

We left Pensacola early Saturday morning and headed to Ft. Lauderdale!  It was such a long drive! 
Madi had a massive meltdown and we had to stop and let her have her temper tantrum outside of Applebee's!  Once she got it out, we ate lunch and hit the road again!  I love that my parents still hold hands and our affectionate even on a stressful, LONG car ride!
We got to our hotel around 9:30 and pretty much went strait to bed! Madison was an awful co-sleeper again!  Very restless and flops around for about an hour and then finally falls asleep!  Sunday morning we woke up and went to breakfast and then headed to see Uncle Phil and Aunt DeNette at their "new" house boat!  They recently sold everything they had and bought a house boat and live there now!!  It was an interesting choice after being there, but it fits them and they are happy!
My uncle Phil looks so much like my PaPaw that sometimes I catch myself just staring at him!  We had a great visit!  We took the girls across the street to the beach.  They literally live across the street!




As soon as we got to the top of the hill and looked down at the beach, she squealed and said, "it's the beach", and took off running!  She ran and splashed around and was so excited!  Madi....not so much!
These two could not be more opposites!
We went back to the hotel room and grabbed our bathing suits and headed back to the beach so we could actually get in!  Papa stayed with Uncle Phil while mom and I took the girls to set up!  We had just gotten everything set out and put sunscreen on and it started to pour down rain!  Whomp whomp whomp!  We picked up and ran to a cabana with some nice guys from Trinidad that let us bunker down with them!  I scored a beer and the girls got some candy from them! As fast as it came on, it cleared up and the sun came out!  We set back up and got our beach on!


Madi still hated it!  I mostly hung out with her at the chairs but she finally got down and dug in the sand--until she noticed she was dirty and then was over it!
We had a great time!  Kenzie was wore out and passed out as soon as we got in the car!
We grabbed dinner and called it a night!
