In early August Cynthia and I went to Pensacola Beach/Navarre and stayed at an AirBnb on the beach. It was awesome and relaxing and awesome.
Waiting for our shipwrecks at Peg Leg Pete's.
Sitting in our same spot each time at Flounder's.
The beach behind our Airbnb.
Out past the barrier reef was a bloom of pink meanie jelly fish. They look like brightly colored steering wheels. We also saw a 5-6 foot tiger shark swim past.
We also visited the Naval Aviation Museum while we were there.
Then when we got back we went to the state fair! Some of our small group friends met us there and we tried out the Deep Fried Bacon Brisket Mac-n-Cheese Grilled Cheese sandwich.
It took a year off the end of my life, but it was so good.
The ladies all went on a ride together. I'm not a fan, so I just watched.
One of my favorite pictures of the entire summer, haha.
Emily at band camp! She is the percussion lead in marching band this year, which is super cool. She's a very talented kid.
Then I took Rose to new student orientation at Coe. There are 422 incoming freshmen, so it's a small school. Rose is majoring in Psychology and is excited to start college.
They have each kid ring the bell before they start school and then they will ring it again when they graduate.
Cynthia discovered a gift card to the Macaroni Grill, so we went there for dinner the day before school started. Both girls started school on the same day.
Rose bein' Rose!
