Beach vacation

Last weekend Kyle and I escaped to Sandestin, FL for a weekend beach getaway. And it was perfect. We went to celebrate no more cancer and everything else we, well mostly he, missed this year.  And to spend some good uninterrupted time together at our favorite place.

Let's rewind, shall we?

Valentine's Day: Kyle was diagnosed on this day.  Yes, on Valentines Day.
Our 3rd anniversary: In the middle of the 5th treatment. Enough said.
My Birthday: Kyle got out of the hospital that week from the bone marrow transplant.

So we decided to combine all of these into one big celebration sitting with our toes in the water, bums in the sand. It was of course, too short of a trip, but the weather couldn't have been more perfect.  I pretty much can't imagine going to the beach during the summer after experiencing a "fall" trip-- aka perfect weather (not sweating to death), no crowds, and gorgeous water!





                                                   

And we ate the best meal of our lives at the Red Bar.  Crab cakes were to. die. for.

Ahhhhhh, can we please go back?
