Loaded down and ready to go!!
Emma slept the first hour in the car, and that was all!
As soon as we arrived at our condo (Emerald Towers) at 5:30 PM, we checked out the view and put on our swim suits to hit the pool and the beach!
Madi has the right idea!
Madi LOVED looking off the balcony! She would even take her toys out there and set them down and talk and point at things down below! ...that is until she started throwing things off the balcony, and then she wasn't allowed to take anything out there!
Emma is a little fish in the water all of a sudden!! She is swimming under water and above water and coming up taking breaths! I am so proud of her progress! Madi loves the pool too!! She jumps in (wearing her Puddle Jumper, of course), goes under, and swims to the steps!!
Madi is not crazy about the waves! She didn't venture too close all week!
Saturday after the cheer competition, we hit the beach and pool all day!
Madi tried her best not to let the sand touch any of her, but she liked for LoLo to make her little sand castles to stomp on!
Emma loves the beach! She collected a few sea shells and coral!
Madi had to wear her goggles like sissy!
"Diving" off the side! She was not scared at all!
After naps, we got dresssed and headed to eat at Joe's Crab Shack!
I love this one of Madi and LoLo!
After supper, we met Anna Claire and her family at the Track! The girls had a ball!!
Madi kept pumping her legs to get it to go!
Sissy was sweet and rode some rides with Madi before Anna Claire got there!
Emma, Madi, and Anna Claire
?! This is Nick's child!!
Emma and Anna Claire (and some other little girl we didn't know) riding the spin around things!
PaPa and Emma on the big go-carts! Their's was sloooooowwwww!
Emma and Anna Claire rode the little go-carts all by themselves!
Monday, it was pretty cloudy all morning, so we went to Target and then to eat at The Crab Trap!! LOVE!!
Silly girls!
Silly shades!
Emma and I got some pool/ beach time that afternoon while Madi-Moo took a nap!
Emma loves the beach!!
Tuesday was by far the prettiest day! It was clear blue skies with a perfect breeze all day!! We worked on our tan and swam all day before coming home on Wednesday!
Emma was swimming all the way across the shallow end!
Madi just liked going up and down the stairs, so we left that up to PaPa!
Emma had to do stunts in the water too! Told you she was hooked!
Obviously, Madi does not grasp the importance of those perfect family beach pictures yet!!
Bless her! We did manage to squeeze in a couple of ok ones!
And of course, I got a lot of cute ones of Emma!
I tried one last time, as we were leaving this morning, and YAY! Success!!
