The big day has arrived!  Alabama coast here we come!  Mommy, Daddy, and Mimz started loading the roof luggage carrier at 4:20am.  I would have helped but no one woke me up.   When they did wake me up at 5am and I saw that we were getting into the car, I said, "This is so much fun!"

We pulled out of the driveway at 5:20am and I went right to sleep.  We met Cousin Donnie and Pattie for breakfast in Beaumont.  I didn't eat much.  I am still having a bit of a BM problem.  Back in the car, I went right back to sleep.  We drove through Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, first time I have been to these states. I have been to Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Massachusetts, and Vermont.  Also Canada.

We drove over the Mississippi River. We drove through Lafayette, LA the town where Mommy was born.

We arrived safely and everyone said I did great on this long trip.  We went out to the beach and I had a great time in the waves.  I really enjoyed running, falling, and rolling around in the sand.  I was covered from head to toe.  Mimz took me up to the house and gave me a shower with the hose outside.  The adults stayed on the beach until dark but Mimz and I stayed on the porch.

I was just thinking about family:  PaPa is in Nigeria, Africa.

Bridget is in Quebec, Canada.

Morgan is at her beloved Camp Longhorn.

And we are at Gulf Shores, Alabama on the west beach. 

 Here are some more pictures of Bridget on her company vacation.
