We drove to Louisiana on Wednesday afternoon and stayed the night at Randy's parent's house. On the way in we stopped at this delicious little drive through daiquiri place. I got a tornado with an extra shot (a tornado is a hurricane mixed with a boom boom pow! haha I love the names). We ordered pizza and went to sleep early because we were leaving at 5:00 AM. CRAZY PEOPLE. I barely slept because I was so scared- I slept in the room all by myself and I kept hearing noises and then the computer randomly came on BY ITSELF at like 3:00 AM so obviously I couldn't sleep after that.
The drive there was about 6 hours and as soon as we got to the condo we got changed and headed to the beach.... with a cooler of beer or course! I met everyone for the second time- it's weird because even though I don't remember his aunts/uncles/grandparents, they knew me when I was little... there was a lot of "oh I haven't seen you since you were this big (insert hand sticking out to waist high)". Everyone was beyond nice and treated me as a part of the family. In fact, when we were leaving one of Randy's aunts said "I'm so glad you're a part of the family now" with a wink. That makes me grin ear to ear!! His grandparents also told Randy they could tell how special I was to him.... it makes me so happy to know other people can see the love between us. We know its there but I think it is the biggest compliment for others to see it as well :)

Another really fun part about the trip is Randy's family is BIG which means lots of little ones and cousins! I think kids always makes the beach more fun because they are always so excited. Randy has two nephews named Brayden who is 7 and Carter who is 5. They are A MESS and ALL BOY let me tell you! Randy is so sweet with them- he is SUCH a great uncle. There's nothing more attractive to me than a man who is great with kids ;)

We went to the beach most every day... it rained one day which really sucked but we went to the outlet mall so it wasn't too terrible ;) Overall it was such a great trip and I'm so glad everyone was nice! I can't wait for next year's vacay. He BETTER be able to come with my family next year too~!!
Love:) ... and I'm glad you're not waist high anymore;)
