Another year goes by, another hot summer, another Crab Fest in Bay St. Louis to attend. It is a little community (I don't really know that for a fact but the only part we see is small) across the bridge from my aunt in Gulfport. It has adorable homes located down the beach each different colors with big front porches and yards. I love the feel of it. 
We head to the local church grounds and park under a Magnolia tree for shade..it is always so hot we wonder why we go but we just can't seem to stay away. We order crab claws, beer and snowcones. Walk around the tented booths to see all the random homemade things, little to music, ride some cheap carnival rides and drip with sweat. The place we take our picture by had porta potties in front of it this year..bummer!
The kids then get cranky and red faced and we head to the car. Of course, we don't head back home for naps until after we stop at Shaggy's for more seafood! 
We love Shaggy's! The girls like to see the boats come in and we like the cold beer and breeze off the water.
Another successful year at Crab Fest! We will be back!!One of the funniest times of the whole vacation was when we were next to this wild and fast carnival ride and I asked the girls if they wanted to ride it..Emmaline immediately shook her head and said "it was too scary" but Georgia got kindof this look in her eye and nodded "Yes!" What happened next was priceless..Emmaline quickly got in front of G with her arms spread out saying, "NO it's too fast. It's not safe." Georgia was trying to see around her by stepping side to side but Emmaline was not letting her get by....It was the quickest flash forward to the teenage years I have had to date! So if that says anything about our future..I guess we are in for a wild ride..and maybe, just maybe we have Emmaline to hold the reigns..!!
