Beach Weekend

Kevin's friend Denver's girlfriend is in for the summer so Friday we got together with them and had a cook out. They made shishkabobs and a great fruit desert and we brought my "famous" pasta salad. It was a great time! We decided over dinner that we would make a trip the beach the next day. Since Kevin and I had already been to Panama City, we decided to try out Destin just to see a new area. We didn't really have any set plans when we went, but we ended up staying the night so we had two days on the beach!

The first day we hit the first beach we saw. It was pretty nice but really crowded because it was a public beach and right in front of a few huge resorts. That evening we went out for dinner and had a GREAT seafood meal at AJ's. It was right on the water beside where boats were docked so we had a great view. Pictures are included of Kevin trying to catch the bird that was close to our table.

On Sunday we checked out an outdoor shopping center but it was so hot that we decided to give up trying to walk the streets and go back to the beach. We ended up going to Henderson State Park. There was a fee to go onto the beach but it was SO worth it! The beaches were beautiful and a lot less crowded than the public beach.
