August 2011 Beach Trip

Catching up....We went to the beach for 2 weeks back in mid-August. Chris was able to join us for a few days of the trip, but mostly it was just us girls. We had a great time.... the weather was perfect, the ocean was crystal blue and calm. The girls had a blast swimming and playing at the beach and pool. Lots more pics to follow.

On the Beach

Visiting the Gulfarium

We took a trip tp the Gulfarium in Ft. Walton Beach. Caroline was very interested in watching and listening to the shows, but Catherine did not like the speaker system at all and cried that it was "too loud". We saw 2 dolphin shows, a sea lion show, petted a large sea turtle and even saw a very, very large alligator. It was a fun trip and a nice change of pace from the pool and beach for a day.

Fun in the Fountain

We stopped to play in the fountain at Grand Boulevard after grocery shopping at Publix.

Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay

Catherine's first Sea-Doo ride

A few shots of some fun we had in the bay and on the dock at our house.

Pretty Dress

These pictures are from August 6th. Caroline went to a Tea Party themed birthday party for a friend from school. Caroline has been resistent to wearing dresses lately, so I was very happy that she seemed to like this one. I love it and think it is precious on her.
