Friday in Destin

Repeat after me ... it's still my mantra ... A rainy day at the beach is still better than a sunny day at work! :-)

Rain, rain and more rain again today. So we fixed breakfast in the condo and lounged around a bit in the morning. Then it was time for lunch at a favorite restaurant, and we took the kids bowling.

We had a really fun time ... the bowling alley was packed with many other families looking for an indoor activity, so the kids played pool during the 45-ish minute wait for bowling lanes.

But then they bowled two games and had a lot of fun. Abby managed to win the first game in the girls league (with bumpers, of course!) and TJ won the first game of the guys league. TJ had at least two strikes and did really well, bowling a 105 both games.

Now it's time to pack the suitcases (sniff, sniff) for an early morning departure. We normally stick around until early/mid afternoon on Saturday, but the weather forecast is still for rain and storms, so we will hit the road early.We have made the best of the rain here since we did have four gorgeous beach and pool days at the start of the week ... and I told the kids you can either sit in the condo and pout that it is raining, or go out and find something fun to do. So we did.

But we are headed out of the rain to SNOW (!!) at home. Maybe as much as six inches, according to the National Weather Service site I pulled up tonight.

UGH, UGH and UGH!

Guess I won't be wearing the flip flops home! ha ha
