Clearwater, FL

Last week we went down to Clearwater, FL and visit with Chris' cousins Lisa and Ralph. Even though most days were a little chilly we still had lots of fun. Below are some pictures from our 1st family vacation as 4 and it was fun.

What were you doing super bowl Sunday? The boys were splashing in the pool. They would have gone in but it was too cold for Mommy and Daddy was too busy taking pictures for Mommy!

Taking a walk around the neighborhood looking for lizards. No luck but found lots of rocks and sticks.

Cameron's best friend Lily.

Our visit to the beach. It was cold so we were bundled but the boys wanted to look for shells.

Mommy wrote Jacob's name in the sand.

And Cameron's name in the sand

Jacob had more fun chasing seagulls.

Digging for dinosaur bones on the beach.

Mommy and Jacob

Cameron must have found a cool shell.

The family

Jacob looking cute

Getting ready to go into Busch Gardens and Cameron put his (actually Jacob's) sunglasses on. It was so cute and I let him wear them like that till lunch. He thought he was so cool!

Watching Seasame Street concert.........can you tell we won't be going to Disney anytime soon?

Cameron and Lisa chasing the bird

Cameron had a prime seat on Ralph's shoulders.

Lisa took the boys to touch the snake because mommy wasn't getting close.

Jacob was facinated by some animal.

Everyday at 2:00 they hid food around for the elephants to find. It was really neat to watch.

We took the boys to the Clearwater Aquarium

They filmed a movie there a couple months ago called Dolphin Tale which will be out in August. It is about a dolphin "winter" who lost his tale and now has a prostetic one that attaches.

Chris is holding the tale...........mommy passed!

Winter the famous dolphin. Notice the missing tale that was cut off by a crab cage.
