Panama City Beach - Day 5 (4th of July)

I am posting this today because we got in so late last night that I just could not even turn on the computer. Our day started out like the others, however, Kevin did not have to work. We spent the day by the pool and just resting in the room. Kevin grilled and we had a nice bbq. Panama City Beach was hosting a fireworks display at Dan Russell Pier, so we packed up and drove to it around 5:30. The kids played in the water and Meaghan made a new friend. In one of the photos you can see them shaking hands - it was too cute! While we were there the waves were rather large and the current was strong. As Kevin and I were watching our kids I noticed a rather small boy get deeper in the water. As an over precautious Mom, I watched him to see if he was going to make it back in. I think Justin and Michael both noticed him too. Suddenly his head started bobbing up and down and he was yelling, "HELP"! Kevin and I jumped up and ran to the shore, I called to the boys Mother and then my two hero's came to the rescue. Justin and Michael were able to get to the little fellow and brought him to the shore - a little scared, but safe. I am so proud of the two of them. Kevin had talked to them about what to do if they were ever caught in the under tow. They actually listened! We had a nice time and the fireworks were great. I took some pictures and also took some video. I will post the video later. Here are the photo's from today.
