Snorkeling

Allison

took the boys to a snorkeling activity offered at Battery Worth on Fort Pickens. They met the Rangers there and were given instructions and then allowed to snorkel and net the wildlife. The boys caught a collection of hermit crabs. Some of the other varieties of wildlife that was discovered by others today were shrimp, blue crab, minnows, ghost crabs, cone jellyfish, etc. Afterwards they had lunch @ Langdon Beach and then swam in the waves. The water was beautiful and they all had so much fun. It was a hot day. It was a definitely an activity to repeat. (And Yes, I totally stole this post from Allison's Blog. Thanks Girlie! hehehe)

Hiking and other Adventures

I went to Utah... it was awesome possum.
I got to go hiking in Logan canyon and we went to this place they refer to as the Wall of China. It was breathtakingly beautiful.

The bottom of the trail

A little Climbing to make it more adventurous.

Just a Neat View

A really cool outcropping on the wall- it was almost a circle.

Happy 3th Birthday Jack-Jack!

We celebrated Jack's "3th" birthday today. (Yeah we totally need to send a copy of the cake to Cake Wrecks.) Jack was thrilled with his presents especially his racetrack and new Cars storybook pillow. :) (Can you tell the child loves cars?) He is a boy through and through but we love him so much. We are so lucky to have him in our family! Where does the time go? Jack is growing up to quickly!

Dragonfly Art Gallery

We went to the dragonfly Art Gallery to look at some local artists work. There were alot of different mediums there. They had woven art, watercolors, carvings, chalk, and photography. Jessalyn found a dolphin watercolor that she really liked. Jeffrey was very attracted to one of a camel caravan. The activity went right along with the boys Webelos artist badge. But we will definitely visit again as they typically change the display and feature room every month. What a neat find here in our little town.

Swim Lessons

I signed the kids up for swim lessons at UWF. Jack Jack did a parent/ child class that was pretty fun and Jeffy and Jessa did regular swim lessons. On the last day, they went off the diving board in the deep end. Jessalyn went twice but Jeffrey was afraid to go and only went once after they relented and let him wear a life jacket. hehehe. But now he likes it and when we were at a friends pool he went off the diving board numerous times. It is weird for me because I don't ever remember NOT being able to swim. I was born part fish I suppose. :) Will said he doesn't remember either. It was always just something we did. But my kiddies are getting there.
