The Diving Board

It's amazing the difference a year can make. Caroline was too scared to jump off the diving board last year, but this year, we can't get enough!

And here's Katy-bug...so tempted to do it, but still unsure!

Caroline's 1st Movie

A couple weeks ago, Caroline and I went to see Winnie the Pooh in the theaters. This was Caroline's first time to go to the movies, and she loved it...and the popcorn, candy, and sweet friend to sit next to.

Sorry this is not the greatest picture. It was taken with my phone.

4th of July

We were Ponte Vedra bound again for the 4th this year and was actually Molly's first trip too! I was so excited for her to meet all of my grandparents, her great grandparents!

 Building with Grandpa Buzz!

 The community where my parents live is so great for kids! There are so many activities to do, especially during holidays! The second night we were there, they had a drive-in movie on the golf course. But instead of driving your car, everyone came on golf cart and either sat in their cart or laid out a blanket to watch a huge big screen tv that they put on the driving range. It was so much fun and the girls loved it! 

And we were at the pool or the beach every day!

Uncle Matt and Caroline made "chocolate soup" for everyone! (aka sand soup) I think they spent a full hour making it! Thanks again for being a good sport Matt.

Even Molly made it for a little while. Here she is with Grandma Betty.

Waiting for the golf cart parade on our street corner.

Here it comes.....

The winner this year...100% Florida Orange Juice...I thought it was so cute! Very creative! We're going to have quite the competition when we start entering our cart again.

Caroline's 1st face painting!! She loved it and was so worried about it coming off in the ocean. 

Here's Molly Bear on the 4th of July. She is now rolling over ALL THE TIME!!! I'm hoping that crawling is NO WHERE in our near future!!!!

We rode the golf cart to the clubhouse to see the fireworks show. I wish I could get a good picture of the hundreds of golf carts that line up to watch, but it was too dark.

Watching the fireworks. 

This year, Caroline did great and loved it...a big difference from last year. But Kate was much more hesitant this year, hiding her head through most of the show.

Another year of wonderful 4th of July memories!!! I've celebrated the same way for 23 years now, and it only gets better every time. Especially now that I can share it with my girls!!!!
