Our last two weeks in Alabama were crazy... Seriously So many things happened all at once. My parents came out on Aug 1 and helped us pack up most of the house! We did get to do a lot of fun thing though!
Ever since we got to Alabama I had wanted to go to the Pebble Hill Plantation in GA. It was such a cool plantation! It was used as a hunting plantation so it was really different compared to all of the other plantations I have seen.
I also have always wanted to go fishing off the the pier at Panama City Beach! It was so cool to watch everyone catch all kinds of fish! Dad and I both caught one! The winner of the coolest catch when to my dad. He caught the fish by wrapping the fishing line around the fishes tail! Ha!
Fishing was a good compromise for my parents. My dad hates water but my mom wanted to go to the beach!
Brady had a LOT of out processing stuff to do (Thank you army for not getting us orders until the last second) so me and my parents killed some time by going to the Botanical Garden in Dothan.
It was really cool! There were theses MASSIVE banana spiders on almost every tree. Plus there was like 6 in each web! I made my mom be brave and stand behind the spider and put her hand behind it so I could get a good picture. When the spider decided to move we may or may not have screamed like little girls!
On the not so creepy side here is a picture of the butterfly garden!
Next came family day at the air field. Brady got to show us around the hawk!
A few hours after family day was the ball! This was a really cool ball for us because both of our parents got to come too! Dave and Linda literately got off of the air plane 40 minutes before it started! They made it just in the nitch of time.
The next morning was Brady's graduation! Sadly, I didn't get very many pictures! But It was really cool to watch Brady graduate! He worked so hard and deserved this SOO much! So proud of him!
Right after graduation we headed down to Panama City Beach to go on a air boat swamp tour! We also got to meet Bubba! He is a gator that thinks he is a dog. He just wanted his owner to hold him! Weird right?
Oh did I mention that this crazy day was also our 2nd Anniversary? So in order to celebrate our anniversary we went to J Micheal's for dinner! We wanted to go there because that is where we celebrated our 1st anniversary.
My parents took off the next morning!
Dave and Linda helped us finish packing up the house. Then we headed down to Destin Fl for a night! We stayed in a awesome hotel! It looked like a old huge southern mansion! I didn't take very many pictures on my phone. I will have to put up the other pictures when i get them developed. We had a lot of fun boogie boarding!
While we were in Destin we went to a restaurant called McGuires, an Irish pup with AMAZING food! They had over a million one dollar bills hanging from the ceiling and walls!
We also had one last get together with some friends! We made so many good friends in Bama! I really do miss them SO much!!!
The morning we were leaving for Colorado we found this GIANT turtle! We also said good bye to Libby and Eddie! We miss them a lot too!
I never thought I would miss Alabama! We had a lot of great adventures that I most likely would have never gotten to experience other wise. Roll Tide!
