Coastal Thanksgiving 2014

This year we decided to spend Thanksgiving in Orange Beach, AL. We had such a great trip and our condo was amazing! I was so excited to decorate our table this year. I think it turned out beautiful! I love a nice tablescape! Jack go a little fishing in after dinner and he caught a starfish! We visited the Gulf Coast Zoo in Gulf Shores, AL where we got to play with Lemurs. That was so fun! They are so cute and have the softest fur and little hands. They actually have fingernails like we do! We took the kids Ice Skating and to play on the ropes course at The Wharf in Orange Beach, AL. Kelsey was all about getting a Henna Tattoo so we gave in and let her get a little cross on the inside of her wrist. We had some great food at LuLu's Homeport with the kiddo and then Chad and I went out to eat at our favorite place, Nolans. The crab cakes are to die for. We watched the iron bowl Saturday night (Roll Tide) and then headed home Sunday but not before making a stop by Alligator Alley and Burris Farm Market on the way home. All in all I say it was a successful trip and I think the kids had a great time. Hope you enjoy the pics!
