Fun in the Florida Sun

We got back from Georgia last Friday afternoon. Since Matthew was leaving early Sunday morning we wanted to spend as much time at the beach as we could. That afternoon we went just the two of us, along with my dad for about an hour while the kids stayed home with my mom. Then that evening we went out to Peir Park to let the kids ride some of the rides.



Riding the carousel.



Sophia was running all over the place. Luckily, Papa had enough energy to chase her.







Matthew and Elijah on the ferris wheel. We rode a few more rides, but it was too dark and they were moving too fast to get any decent pictures.




Since the next day was Matthew's last day in Florida we hit the beach yet again. My younger brother Aaron arrived too, so he tagged along.

Little beach bum.

One of the few times he wasn't out in the water!



Just a little sandy.

Fourth of July! We went to a really great concert and watched fireworks down by Peir Park, but I didn't take my camera.


Still more to come!
