Mini Vacation at the Island

Our Summer has flown by. Hubby took one week of vacation last month and that turned out to be such a crazy week that it felt more like work than a vacation. But this past weekend, my BIL called and asked if we wanted to stay at his condo at Dauphin Island for the week. While we couldn't stay the whole week, we did take him up for the weekend. And as luck would have it, I was dealing with monthly hormones - I was not in a bathing-suit kind of mood. But I was determined  to make the best of it and brought my camera and one good book, planning on only taking photos and reading. And while I did manage at first, a severe headache managed to put me in bed most of the morning on Sunday. Good news, I got some wonderful pictures, finished a good book - Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter, and went on a Geocaching adventure ( I am going to make a post all about our new fun activity, Geocaching!!)  Hope you enjoy the pictures!!

Weekend Wanderings

Downtown Mobile has started a new tradition of having a farmer's market on Saturdays. It's called Market on the Square and I was finally able to attend.

It's a great activity for the whole family.

 

 They are also having arts and crafts there too.

 

 Music from some locals

 

The kids got to play in the water fountains!! 

 

Didn't take any pictures of our goodies but we got a delicious homemade brownie, some oatmeal raisin cookies and I got a lovely bouquet of fresh flowers.
