Jeff, Gabby and I, along with my parents, took a family vacation last week to Florida!! We originally had planned to stay in Destin, FL, but changed our minds after noticing that our hotel was not beach front like they said. So, we ventured to Panama City Beach instead. The hotel was the best! Beautiful and very family friendly too! If anyone is looking for a place like this, it is called "The Palmetto"!! Jeff and I actually stayed there in December 2006 and really enjoyed it so we decided to go back again! It is on the beach and has an indoor and outdoor pool and is family owned and operated too which is really nice! The owners even sat poolside with us and talked for a long while! They were so friendly. So, I have decided that we are going back every year from now on! Here are some of the highlights from our trip! Sorry about the massive amount of pictures, but we just had so much fun!!
Gabby and Mommy bright and early at the airport...6am!!!
Gabby was so interested in the tray table on the plane! So, we just decided to pull it down and let her sit on it! Not so sure if this was allowed or not, but the flight attendant did not mind!
Gabby with Daddy! She is really into him these days! Check out that plate of seafood...yummy!!
Gabby and Daddy again on the balcony of our hotel room! Looks like she is waving to us doesn't it!
Beach Baby!!
Mommy and Gabby!
Gabby, Grammy and Grampy!
Gabby made a friend at the airport coming home during our plane problem!(long story..2nd engine blew...SCARY)!!
Gabby snoozing on the plane ride home! Night night baby!

Great pictures - Katie, you look so tan!!! I'm jealous. Gabby, Lily and Addy can't WAIT to meet you tomorrow. They're going to give you lots of slobbery kisses.
Can't wait to see you too Carey!
Erin,
I wondered how far Naples was from Panama! Pretty far it sounds like! I have not forgot the baby clothes. I am off on Monday and plan to dig through them then. My plan is to get them in the mail after then. Vacation kind of set my plan back a little! When can I see more baby Hopie belly pics??
Looks like you guys had fun! :-) Maybe next summer we can take a Chamness Family vacation with you guys, Grandma Chamness and Grandad Sir, and Jason and I:-)....even if it's just down to Gatlinburgh or even a cabin in Brown County? We should start working on that...we haven't had a family outing since like my sophomore year of college in Florida?...
Did ya get Gabbers in a pool at all? How did she handle it if you did?
Sounds like a good plan to me Amy! Let's get on planning a Chamness family trip! Gabby did get in the pool a couple of times! She loved it!! Swim lessons with her Aunt Amy are going to be so much fun!!!
Love the pictures!! Family vacations are so much fun!! Looks like you all had such a great time!!
