Carillon Beach - 2011



We spent an absolutely wonderful week at Carillon Beach in Florida a few weeks ago. My parents joined us! The trip down was...well, let's be honest, freakin' terrible! Carson puked four times before we hit Birmingham. One of the explosions was directly on me. (An exit outside of Tupelo, MS is the proud owner of puked-on 3T shorts and a women's tank top and skirt.) Once there though, we enjoyed lots of mornings at the pool, afternoon naps and evenings on the beach. (We are fortunate to know someone who has a three bedroom condo directly on the beach!)

The ride home was much smoother. We broke up the trip with a night at the Corless house. (I honestly think Carson enjoyed the overnight in Memphis more than the beach. He experienced his first sleep-over with Gunnar and loved all of the Corless kid-loot!)

Carillon Beach, we'll see you again next August!
