Baby-Moon

Leah and I took a couple days of vacation to spend an extended Labor Day weekend in Pensacola enjoying our "Baby-Moon" (aka the last weekend we can both travel until the baby bomb is dropped).  One of my co-workers graciously offered her house as a getaway.  (Thanks Diana!)

Thursday was great, as we toured Ft. Pickens, and then spent the day on the beach at the National Park.  Unfortunately, as the red flags on top of the lifeguard stands informed us of our impending doom....it turned out we decided to visit the beach during a Tropical Storm.

On the beach at Ft. Pickens National Park

Our canoe trip got rained out Friday, and we spent Saturday on lockdown watching the opening weekend of college football...which isn't such a bad thing at all.  Being a former fat bay, the best (and possibly worst) part of the trip was Diana leaving the house completely stocked with food.  On top of that, Hungry Howie's (Leah's favorite pizza place) was less than five minutes away. So, we ate there. Twice.  In total I'm pretty sure I gained five pounds...

On the way back we stopped by Leah's family reunion in Dadeville, and I got to meet a lot of her extended family members.  Despite the tropical storm, we still managed to have a great weekend.
