Slaying PCB 2010!

Last week, Brandon and I went to Panama City Beach...Yes, the drunk, scantly-clad, beach throwin, MTV watchin, fist-pumpin capital of the world!  Or so I thought until I arrived.  My spring break preconcieved notions were all, well mostly washed away when we arrived at our beautiful condo atop on those white sandy shores.  It was a F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S week with Brandon's sister, Whitni and her husband, Chris, and their gorgeous children and our awesome nephews, Caden (5) and Copelan (2).  It was so fun to get to hang out with them all week, enjoy some relaxation and nephew lovin.  I will now fill you to your heart's photo content.
The first night we arrived we took the boys down to the beach to "look for crabs"...it was more like run and get all their energy out in the dark on the beach with a flashlight.  But fun whatever you call it!
Does this face show excitement to be at the beach or what?

Days at the beach were filled with....
Playing in the water.  The first day they weren't so sure about it but after a few times they were in love with jumping waves.
We built big sand castles (Ok...more like a huge mound) with a mote...
And decorated with shells!
Brandon did a lot of this...while Copelan did his best to keep his Uncle B's attention.
They love their Dada!
I did a lot of this...ok well maybe I only did this a moderate amount...I CAN NOT lay out for 8 hours a day, so I played with the boys more than I sat there.

We loved getting up early and sitting on the balcony with the boys.  Brandon always gets up early and I haven't been able to sleep in yet after getting up early all semester so we played with Cope who got up at the crack of dawn each day.
Cope loved his powdered donuts and playing on the balcony.  And even more...opening and shutting the sliding glass door...when your 2 entertainment comes really easily!
I loved waking up to Copelan calling my name, "Neet Neet!"  Isn't that cute?  No toddlers can say my name but this is the cutest interpretation of "Courtney" I've ever heard.
Uncle B loves his boys!
We loved being aunt and uncle all week...
...and "mom and dad" to the margarita drinking woman who helped take our picture on the beach.

We had a date night with our nephews while Mommy and Daddy took a night off.
We ate pizza and got ice cream. 
You can tell I'm the aunt and not the mom since I let them have at it and get blue ice cream everywhere.
Played on the beach.  If you can't tell, Brandon is the proudest uncle around!
And I quote, "These shells are so stylish!"  Caden was hilarious all week! 
When we went to dinner one night, we were talking about how Caden doesn't like soup and salad.  He told us, "I'm not a soup person...  I'm a cookie person!"  I love 5-year-olds!

If they aren't two of the cutest kids around I don't know who is!

Brandon and I had the greatest week!  Sorry for the L-O-N-G-E-S-T post EVER!!!!! They are just too cute not to share with you guys!
