Anna Maria Island Vacation

Last week we took a week long vacation to Anna Maria Island with our friends the Starstroms. We rented a house on 62nd Street on Holmes Beach called Blue Sky. Evan loved that it had a name and we are in the process of "naming" our house. It just seems cooler, right? It had a swimming pool and hot tub in the backyard and was about 3 blocks from the beach.

The weather was amazing, although hot. We had sun every day and the water was pretty calm, except for 2 days. Which was a nice change as Evan could try to boogie board a little. I think for the future, we'll have to stick to the east coast beaches for boogie boarding. The water was turquoise and the sand was so soft and white.

We had such a great time relaxing at the beach and pool, drinking many relaxing drinks and soaking up some serious sun. Everyone got along so well and I think every one of us had a blast and were all very sad to leave.  Here are some of my favorite playing at the beach photos.
