Our Vacation

Our vacation was awesome. We stayed at Seashells of Sanibel and have already book our condo again for next year. I will let the pictures do the talking.
Feel free to ask questions if you need clarification on anything.

Our awesome beach!

Our first night there!

The gang hanging out in the water! Have I mentioned how grateful we are for Bailey!

Love splashing pictures!

Mom, I LOVE THE BEACH!

My sweet girls!

Somewhere my Mom has a picture of Kyle and I under a palm tree. I wish we had a closer picture. Maybe next year!

Jaycie was needing some love. Isn't this great. So incredible.

Jadyn - sunset - with her seashell.

We found a crab. So of course I took a picture of everyone looking at the crab.

Fun place to eat on the island. We had not so good service so our experience wasn't as good as usual.

The girls watching us shell hunt.

I love this picture. The rain looks so cool.

We just couldn't get a good picture of the girls on beach...

...especially since Jaycie wouldn't stop eating sand.

This picture of Bailey and the girls is awesome! We love Bailey!

This is one of my favorites of Daddy and Jadyn.

Jaycie.

Jaycie flying in the air. I love this picture. She was squealing. It was awesome.

Babies and sunset. Awesome.

We had a blast. Here are a few facts:
1. The other "pictured" girl is Bailey. She is a former student of mine who went with us as our Nanny. It was 2000x easier to be 3 on 3 with the girls than 2 on 3. We have already asked Bailey to go with us again next year.

2. Because of the way Sanibel Island is aligned in the ocean it is one of the top 7 places in the world to get sea shells. Unless you've been there it's hard to describe. There are millions of shells everywhere and fresh ones wash up with every wave. Sanibel may not be a perfectly clear sand/beach but shell hunting is AWESOME! We feel like we get the best of both worlds! Greg and I found 39 sand dollars one night.

3. We went to the beach 3 times a day. It was so much fun. I think the best time was in the evening because we didn't have to worry about sun screen.

4. Bailey and I saw a shark one day on the beach. They guy next to us caught it on a fishing pole and reeled it in. Then he left it go. It was AWESOME.

5. If I could move there tomorrow I would.

We love Sanibel.
A lot.

Grandma's House

In June Greg and I had the opportunity to to make a weekend run to Dallas to see the new Bush Presidential Center. We had so much fun! It wouldn't have been possible without the help of Grandma and Grandpa who willingly kept the girls all weekend. Greg and I left Friday evening, drove to Big Cabin, Ok. We spent the night and then headed to Dallas. We spent the night in Dallas and drove back the next day. It was so much fun!
Anyhoo, here are some pics from our adventure.

We drove though Oklahoma where there was no starbucks, so I stocked up before we crossed the stateline coming come.

On our way home we stopped to get some snacks. Greg made a good friend.

Some of the sights of Oklahoma. The horse and buggy ran across the street in front of the cars in front of us. We really thought they were going to be hit. It was kind of scary!

The girlies at Grandma's . See all the doors tied shut! Haha.

 Jadyn - getting Daddy with the sword!

 Grandma and Jemma.

Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for keeping the girls so we could go on our adventure!!

Tea Party

Clear back at the beginning of the summer Jadyn hosted a tea party. We invited 6 little girls and 4 of them were able to come. We had the tea party at my parents house. It was so much fun! We set up a table in the front yard and served sandwiches and cupcakes. The girls had pink lemonade and Jadyn sent them home with jars of skittles. The girls wore cute dresses and played in the front yard. It was gorgeous weather and the mom's got to visit too. I hope we can do it again soon!

The princesses! 

Thank you girls for joining us! We had a blast!
