Happy 4th of July!!! We made it to beach around 2:00 this afternoon and I was down on the beach with Autumn and Briley by 2:30 :) I already have tan lines and sand in my beach bag. Oh I’m in heaven! The beach is absolutely perfect today!!! The water is crystal clear and there are tons of sand bars so the little kids were able to run out and play by themselves.
I also thought I should probably clarify where we actually are…
We really need to stop calling it Seaside, but it’s such a hard habit to break. I don’t even realize when I do it. After 15 years of going to Seaside for summer vacation we decided to part ways last year.
So sad :(
Seaside, Florida is not at all what it used to be. Don’t get me wrong- I still love it and I would absolutely continue to go every year if I was made of money and didn’t mind the traffic. When we first started going to Seaside it was perfect, seriously perfect. So perfect that one of my sisters actually got married there. I think it was like 5 years ago, can’t keep track anymore. We have too many weddings. Anyway, you parked your car when you got there and you didn’t get back in it until you left. You rode a bike or walked everywhere. You spent your days at the beach and you spent your nights walking around town shopping, listing to music on the lawn at the amphitheater, on the beach or at Bud & Alleys Rooftop Bar (one of my personal favorites) or just hanging out at the house with the fam. You can still do most of this at Seaside, but now it cost quite a bit more than it used to and it is C-R-O-W-D-E-D. Every year it get’s worse and worse. Crossing the street to get to the beach has become a dangerous event. There is traffic everywhere and you have to wait in line for everything. It’s full of people who are just visiting and aren’t even staying at Seaside. It’s turned into a huge tourist attraction rather than a quaint little beach town tucked behind the sand dunes. I’ve always thought it would be a cute place to go on a date if you lived in the area, but dear lord it seems like EVERYONE had that same idea. We drove through it on our way today and it was crazy BUSY!! Then we pulled up to our beautiful beautiful house called Nantucket. IT IS GORGEOUS!!! I will post pictures later tonight (my camera is all the way downstairs)
Our family just keeps getting bigger and bigger and we need more space and we also need to make sure all the grandkids are safe when they are running around enjoying vacation (this way their parent’s can enjoy vacation as well.) For a few years now we’ve needed two houses, but even that is starting to get crowded. Since Seaside was getting too crowded and too expensive my mom did some research and we found Summer’s Edge. It’s located just down road from Seaside and it looks exactly like Seaside…minus the town. We loved it when we came last year so we decided to give it another shot this year.
For now- I have some pictures from on our way down here. We loaded up all our cars and left from Sara & Ryan’s house on Friday morning. I posted a picture of our 4 car (all black cars for some reason)caravan. I always find my parents car funny with the yellow kayak strapped on top :)
Anywayyyy- I’m off now! We are grilling dinner, we have the music going and the drinks are being made! Then we are heading down to the beach to watch/shot fireworks. Apparently there is a guy that lives next door that owns several fireworks stands and he puts on a $100,000 show (holy crap) so I’m extremely excited to try and get some pictures. HAPPY 4TH!!!
