Well LAST YEAR during fall break we went to the beach! We had the best time with my sister and her family and my cousin, Rachel.

My meal at Sea n Suds!
Sea n Suds was my favorite place! The atmosphere was very family friendly and right on the beach. I definitely have this on my must eat list!!
The weather was perfect! Not to hot, not cool but just perfect! We lounged out on the beach mostly all day and talked about where we were going to eat:) I love eating seafood and it is so much better at the beach!!

Me...enjoying the sunshine and sand!
As all Southern girls do, I have an obsession with monogrammed items!! Hats, purses, koozies, keychains, clothes, whatever it may be I love it! So I sported a lot of monogrammed items on this beach trip;)

Back to the beach.....
We also enjoyed Lulu's! Very fun, kid friendly place to eat while in Gulf Shores! It is a must eat at place also.
Taylor played as we waited for a table. 
After Lulu's Steven, Rachel, Taylor and I went to Dippin' Dots!!! Another favorite!
Then we called it a night so we could get up and enjoy life on the beach for another day.
Rachel and I enjoying the beach life!
I can't remember the name of the restaurant we ate at the next night. Not a favorite of mine.
Then we went to The Track for a fun evening!
Rachel and I rode but I didn't get a picture of us actually in the carts. But we took a selfie while waiting in line:)
Taylor enjoyed himself! The Track is such a fun place where everyone can enjoy themselves! The also have kiddie rides for the smaller children.
The next day of beach life was RAE RAEs birthday!!!! Steven and I got up early and went and got donuts for the celebration!!

We went down to the beach for a little while then we went and ate at Shrimp Basket for birthday lunch.

While waiting for our food Taylor feel asleep at the table!!! A memory I never want to forget! I also did this as a child!
Our appetizer which was the Italian fried cheese sticks! Yummmmyyy
Then I ordered fried shrimp! So so good!
Shrimp Fest was starting on our lastnight in Gulf Shores! We all went out and enjoyed the fun before we headed home the next morning.
Taylor playing in the sand!
The Funk Monster Band was playing in concert so we listened and danced for a little while! Lots of fun!! They play so fun disco type music.
Until next time,
Stacey
So while in Memphis we stayed with my cousin 
Taylor 1st trip to the zoo was 
We made it to the Polar Bear exhibit in time to watch them be fed. We also learned a litle about those pretty creatures! Taylor was so cute to watch as the Polar bears dove for a fish. Unfortunately the Polar bears didn't want to "Press Paws" like they normally do.
