Happy Birthday America!

Aren't we blessed to live in such a wonderful country? I am so proud to live in the United States and call it my home. I feel like over the past few weeks, Gunter and I have been discussing this idea so much! It seems to just come up in conversation between us. We are blessed with a healthy child, a wonderful marriage, a nice house, a loving family, friends, a great church, jobs that we enjoy going to each day, yummy food to eat, and beach houses to vacation at! We spent the Fourth of July weekend in Panama City at Worth the Wait and Gunter's family's beach house.

Mom and Kelsey came and picked me up on Wednesday and we headed down to the beach early for a little girl time. Gunter came down on Thursday night. We dined at Old Florida Fish House, one of our favorite beach restaurants, but one that we haven't been to in quite a while. It was delicious as usual!

Then Friday morning we moved down to the Price's place. We enjoyed spending time in the sun and in the sand! The water was beautiful and the weather was perfect! It wasn't too hot! John Turner even got down on the beach a little bit, but stayed under the tent of course!

"Aubie Rules! 2010 National Champions" 
I love it!

The Browns and the Prices got together for dinner one night at Louie Louie. If you haven't eaten there... it's a must. It's owned by the same people that own the Red Bar. The positive aspect of Louie Louie's is that they have crabcakes every day... which are my favorite!

Sunday we got to have lunch with my good friend from college, Amy, and her husband Clayton at Seagrove Market Cafe. It was yummy as well. (As you and see, all we do at the beach is eat!) I haven't seen Amy in quite awhile and it was so good to catch up and for Amy and Clayton to meet John Turner!

On Monday we celebrated America's birthday with both of our families. We spent time on the beach, ate dinner at Shades on the Loop, and then watched fireworks on the beach. It was the perfect ending to a wonderful weekend! 

The twins and John Turner! 
Happy Birthday America!
