 made it to LR with just a few (ahem) fits in the car! ;) they are feelin VERY excited to get on the airplane! mccoy yelled airplane!!!!! through the whole airport. h also insisted on rolling his own bag.
 i am sporting a very nervous smile that says..sh*t, how did i get THIS seat?
they were actually pretty good on the plane. i had around 999999 activities ready to go for them. with about 30min left i was having to start a new activity for mccoy about every 30 seconds which made me start to sweat. i thought FOR SURE they would nap on the plane since it was right during their nap time but NOOOOOOO! ;) mccoy started kicking the seat in front of him for fun and throwing his toy planes down the aisle. but all in all. they were not to shabby. we only got one "excusee me! who's kids ar theseeeee???" by an airport security type lady when i told the kids they could have carry-on-suitcase races up and down the ramp by security.
liza asked me if we were in heaven when she was looking out at the clouds..
mccoy kept screaming.."3,2,1 blastoff" when we took off and then screamed over and over, "we're fallllling!" when we were landing.
we must have looked desperate because lots of people offered to help us! haha! :)
this one nice guy from fayetteville helped me load this baby up.
 we got to FL around 1245 and headed to seagrove and to check in and hit up the grocery store.
by the time we got everything done we hit the beach! the kids were SOOOOO excited! they ran and jumped the waves over and over.













 they loved the birds and would chase them everywhere
 we ended up just picking up some snacks at goatfeathers and coming home to feed the kids. then we went up up to seaside for ice cream and play.


 liza woke up bright and early, ready to find sea shells! mccoy slept in a little! ( for us, anyways) and off we were to the beach!





 mccoy built sandcastles and looked for pirate ships. after a few hours he wanted to go back home and eat cheetos though.
 liza jumped the waves for hours and found friends and played. she walked up to this group of a little older girls and said..." hey girlies!!!! you wanna play??" she then picked up the girls hand and put it in hers and off they went! so so funny!

Great pictures of the first day! Can't imagine your next adventures. I'm sure the Carter family will know everyone on the beach by Friday. Wish I were with you!

Love, Coco

I thought I saw your kids running by when we were at the Great Southern. Have fun!
