Easter Camping for Sarahs 13th Bday

We camped over Easter weekend at Ft Desoto for Sarahs 13th birthday. We had our own private little beach right on the water behind our campsites. It was the perfect place for having the canoe and kayaks and the kids had a ball catching sea creatures with their nets, crabs, snails and even a starfish or two!

We dyed Easter eggs and then later that day a racoon snuck up to the picnic table and stole an egg, Sarah and her friend Hallie caught him in the act!

Now thats a van full of fun!

King fishing

Our friends Craig and Jessica took us out fishing for King fish, it was a blast, what a ball to reel those guys in....

Here is the crew with their catch:

Jess caught the biggest fish of the day, she definitely won the prize!

James' 5th Birthday

Our little boy turned 5! He wanted a space shuttle cake this year, so Mommy and Daddy got busy making him one.....


Baby Will riding on the train, he's such a happy boy!

James wanted to go to Busch Gardens for his birthday so we took all the kids while baby Will was in town, they had such a great time. Baby Will really enjoyed meeting Elmo. James and Max rode the new Grover rollercoaster and were very brave. Uncle Eston even rode Sheikra!

What a great day!

Beach Time!

Uncle Eston, Aunt Tammi and Will got a place on Siesta Key for a much needed family vacation and we all enjoyed a little fun in Siesta Key. They also brought news of a new baby on the way, yay! Congrats guys, can't wait to meet the next little Mayberry.

Uncle Eston building sand castles with the kids, he's a professional.

Baby Will is such a beach boy!

Marathon

Some of our clients took off to the Bahamas and had some trouble with their autopilot so Jim and I drove down to Marathon to install a new one and have a little grown up time.....

Monster Jam!

We took the boys to the Monster Truck show in Tampa, it was at Raymond James stadium which is an awesome stadium, complete with pirate ship and all! The boys had a ball, the only downfall (pun intended....) was the rain. It rained for the majority of the show, but it didn't seem to bother Max a bit, he had a ball! He is absolutely obsessed with trucks. Fun times!
