Florida III (and final!)

Here's the end of the Florida pictures. We had such a fabulous time and did so many fun things!

Girls' Day Out!!! We shopped 'till we literally dropped--about 8 hours. It was so fun--can you tell? We had a blast at a local outlet mall. It had every store you can imagine.

Trying on sun hats.
Our last night we tried some pictures on the beach. It was a little late and there was a storm coming so the light wasn't the best, but the people in the pics are pretty darn cute!

Here are James, Lybi, and their boys, Adam, Samuel, and Joseph
Cindy, Andy, and their little boy,Ryan
Wayne and Sandy, Ben's parents
We tried getting a pic with all the grandkids. It was pretty funny. This was the best one. LOL!
Me, Ben, Carli, Kate, Megan, and Brandon

The pools at the resort were so great. The kids had a blast with the dads playing water volleyball. We got some good action shots here.

Ben with Kate.
Carli is such a little fish. As long as she has her floaties on she swims wherever she wants to.
The water slide was the biggest hit with the kids. Brandon loved it!
Carli was dying to go, too, however, she was supposed to go alone. You are not allowed to have 2 people together. Kate took her up there, but she wouldn't go down as much as she wanted to, so Ben went up and put her in the slide and pushed her down. Well...she stopped herself before she even got halfway down and just sat there! The lifegaurd finally said her could go get her and bring her down. Notice her terrified look as they come out. She didn't worry about going down the slide again. :)
Me, Lybi, and Cindy at our dinner out as couples. Nana and Papa were SOOOO generous to watch all 8 kiddos and let us go out together. What a fun night.

Andy, James, Ben
It was this fabulous restaurant right on the beach called the Sea Watch. Seriously yummy seafood. I went for it all--lobster, shrimp, scallops...
Lybi and her "claw."

Memories

I got this off Katri's blog. It's fun to keep memories.

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments. Not that there would be anything other, but please keep it family friendly.

Gotta get my kiddos ready to go swim! We are having a great time here in Florida with Ben's family. This afternoon is mil and sil shopping spree. We found a great mall not to far from here with 300 stores--can we say heaven?! :)
