We spent last week with my parents and brother in Destin. The weather was perfect every single day and since it was the tail end of the summer and school is back in, the crowds were very light. There was hardly any competition for beach space, pool time, or restaurant seating. And did I mention the weather was p-e-r-f-e-c-t?

We're simple people with simple pleasures. So we spent the entire week swimming in clear water and stuffing our faces full of shrimp, fish, and dessert.
My dinner one night: grilled shrimp!

One morning we went boating on the bay and saw lots of dolphins. One group of dolphins came so close to our boat that we could hear them blowing air when the came out of the water. It was like SeaWorld!
We anchored at a sand bar where the water is only a few feet deep for a swim. Although it wasn't much of a "swim" in such shallow water.
All five of us tried our hand at paddleboarding. It's harder than it looks fighting against the ocean currents. My super-fit parents were pretty good at it.
It's hard to beat that clear Destin water!

All cleaned up and showing our good side.
I'm going off the deep end here with a swimsuit picture and my belly hanging out. Pregnancy is sure making me immodest. The bump really feels bigger than this picture shows.

Ahh, here's a better side view that does it justice. Strangers are just starting to notice.
