Beach Day

We live in Florida and the first time we have made it to the beach this year was the middle if October! We had a great time though. We tried out a new beach on Anna Maria Island and the water was so clear and it was such a beautiful beach and day. We saw dolphins jumping, caught a jellyfish we were worried would sting the kids, saw lots of fish (one nibbles on my toe) And we think we some stingrays. We went with our friends the Coxs and the kids carved a face in the sand. It just might be more fun than carving a pumpkin in October.

The girls both loved the water and were playing in it for hours as well as building sand castles, more like hills, and playing with their friends

It was the perfect day!

Look who joined the cool club

Brad and I are both sight challenged, and we knew when we had kids it was only a matter of time before at least one of them joined us. Brooklyn has had some trouble seeing the board this year so we took her to the eye doctor and today her super cute glasses came. We let her pick her own frames and she loved the "big frames" (plastic). She made such a great choice and she is so beautiful with or without them.

CHARGE

So my friend Ryan and I were driving to Home Depot today and traffic was stopped for a rogue cow in the road. We thought it was funny so instantly pulled out our cameras. Ryan said she kind of hopes it would come in the road for a better pic. Then what do you know it did! I got a pic of what I thought was going to be the cow crossing the road but as it hit the center of the road it rounded towards us and seriously charged toward my car!! (Thanks Ryan for the charging pic.) I totally thought my car was totaled and we were sitting ducks with toddlers in the car. It veered away literally at the last second and know we have a great story to tell. Ha!
