St George Island







We just returned from our family vacation in St George Island, Florida. What perfect weather, what perfect company, what a perfect time. My Mom and her sister, Aunt Pam, have been busily planning this vacation since this time last summer. We were able to coordinate 37 people between the two families, giving us 15 kids ages 10 and under spread out over 5 beach homes. We were steps from the beach and the kids loved playing in the sand and splashing in the water. Monday night was McNulty family dinner night, so we hosted a Mexican Fiesta complete with games and activities (that my mother was very proud of) and Wedneday night was Manning family dinner with an Italian theme. Friday night was a pitch in with fresh seafood and all the trimmings. We shopped in town, got the chance to sneak away several times without the kids courtesy of the grandparents, and simply enjoyed kicking back on the beach with a cold beer. We drove 12 hours straight, through the night both times and the kids did fantastic. Definitely the way to go with little ones -- they were out by 10pm and snoozed til 6am. Thanks to Daddy for powering through while we rested :) Enjoy the slideshow!
