Dinner at LuLu's.

Don't you just know that when we show up with these three in a restaurant, people notice!
Sometimes, we get the "awww", as in they are so cute!
And sometimes, I sense the "Ugh", as in there goes our peaceful dinner!
Luckily we have figured out how to find places that kind of encourage all the chaos, and we stick to those!
Enter LuLu's! If you have never been to the Gulf SHores area, you may not realize that LuLu is Jimmy Buffet's sister. And if you've ever listened to Jimmy Buffet music, then you know that he is CHILL to the n'th degree!
All three girls are in an "I'd rather be on the move" kind of stage right now!
But, luckily I bring SUPER MODELS with me to to babysit, so we just take shifts!
and by shifts, I really mean "whose turn is it to follow them around the room?"
Apparently, it was not my shift as me, Staci, and Veronicia posed for this picture! I think it was more like my Appetizer shift!
LuLu's is situated on a marina, so the girls have things to constantly go check out.
They can buy fish food and feed the fish. There are boats coming in and out of the canal off the gulf.
This is Veronicia, her nephew, Cody, and her younger brother, Zach.

And if you didn't know better, you'd think these two were all sweet and innocent.
This is Tyler. He's been fun to have on our trip this year, as Hunter's buddy.
I have hardly even seen Haynden and Grant. They sleep til noonish, then, hmmm... I don't really know what they do. It doesnt' involve a beach! X Box maybe?
And they seem to have that pre teen angst thing down pat!
ahhhhh.... another live band!
Now that's what I am talking about! The girls love to take center stage and dance away!
And this is me....
the happy, joy-filled mama.
Heading home today from a very filling vacation.

Oh Mo ~ The dresses on Ellie & Gabbi are ADORABLE!!! (Maddie looks pretty good herself) I just love how their skin has a great sun glow with those white dresses & the bows - precious!
You know just the places that welcome kids - thank God.
Have a safe trip home & a wonderful weekend, Diana from Colorado
