The annual Huey Family Vacaction detoured from our normal spot, Gulf Shores, AL, to Destin, FL for a good reason: Travis' aunt and uncle bought a condo in Destin and we really needed to check it out.
Approximately 1 million hours later (thank you Destin traffic) we arrived safe and sound at the beautiful Ariel Dunes Resort.
We headed out for the beach at 0730 the next day because H was ready to go:
We spent the remainder of our time playing in the sand, building castles, waving at everybody we walked by, splashing in the waves, eating delicious seafood, and shopping.
Vacation doesn't mean a break from naps. This pop up tent was the best $28 I've ever spent. He napped everyday without issue! 
Every morning JimJim would go down to the beach and mark our territory for the day with our chairs and umbrellas. We made friends with a sweet family from Tennessee. The husband was a talented sand artist. Did I just make that up? Ever say he would make a new creation. They loved watching hudson and would play with him. On the last day we got a picture with our new friends. 
We knew it would be a further drive, but the amenities looked great and we wanted to check it out.
We headed east from Houston in the wee hours Saturday morning:
Food was required when H woke up. No better way to start your day than with breakfast at Chic-Fil-A.
After putting H to bed, we took a stroll on the beach.
Note: JimJim and SuSu were watching H. He was not left alone.
We got some pretty exciting news while we were on the beach. Hudson is going to be a big brother. Baby Bear 2 is slated to arrive in mid December.
Another precious boy!
We had a wonderful time in Destin and we cannot wait to go back!
