Orange Beach 2015...post 1

We took our trip to the beach back in May. Most of the Caughern family was able to make it. Aaron's younger brother and his crew were the only ones who didn't go. I have got to say, it was AWESOME!! We had such a great time. The kids did great on the trip down and on the way back. No one got sick or injured. There were no fights or arguments. I couldn't not have wished for a better week with the family I married into. This will mostly be a picture post with a description of how we spent our time. The pictures will not be in any specific order because I don't want to organize them =)   Ready??
Self explanatory. Me and my love on the pirate cruise.

Pirate Levi. This was Wed's adventure. It was 2 hours of fun for the kids.

A view from the upper deck.

Captain Evan. He's really steering the boat. The true captain was so nice to let Evan do this.

Waiting for a hermit crab to make his move. 

Evan and his buckets. He had everything from a tiny jelly fish to shells in there. 

Heading out for a daddy/daughter date. One of my favorite pictures.

Dads and their daughter's heading out. Aaron's older brother and his girl, Bella.

They were able to watch this crazy bird swoop down on the fish and bring it back , and then watched as it gulped it down. 

Another self explanatory photo

These two, Evan and Dylan, earned the nickname "Minions" They were always together and had so much fun.It helps that they're both small for their age.

Helicopter ride was Monday's adventure. In case you don't know the older girl...that's my niece Tiffany. We brought her along for the fun. Every one rode and Katie and Evan got to ride twice to fill empty seats. The pilots were great.

This cute little crab just wanted to get away from us. 

Easiest kid to get pictures of. All he wanted to do was catch a fish. Goal met.

cousins...Levi, Bella, Katie

Me and my Evan

My fantastic in-laws looking at the back of the house we stayed in.

Beach trip isn't complete without a family photo. This was taken about 6:30 in the morning. And we almost waited too long. It got bright very fast!!

All 8 kids

A visit to the Naval Air Museum was Thursday. Levi and Aaron rode the flight simulator. It flipped all the way around in all directions.

Pensicola Lighthouse

the front of our house

again and again and again....

One guess who's feet those are

Camp Caughern. This was our set up every day. We would put it up first thing in the morning, about 6:00, and take it down in the evening, about 7:00. No on e ever messed with it.

The crew

We stopped over in Mobile on our way home and toured the U.S.S. Alabama. Very cool!!

These are not all the photo's. I'll put more in the next post.
