Tampa 2011

We had a wonderful trip to the beach with my parents and Damon and Amy in April.  The weather was perfect and the kids had a blast swimming in the pool, digging in the sand, and riding the waves! 

 Digging in the BIG hole...

 Ella riding the waves with Daddy.  We were on the Gulf Coast of Florida, so the waves were very small most days, but she LOVED it :-)

 For those of you who have asked, here is a sort-of belly shot.  They best you are going to get :-)

 Attacking Aunt Amy with noodles.

 Will was known as "Goggle Boy" most of the week.  He wouldn't go in the pool without his gear (float pack from swimming lessons, goggles, hat, and 2 noodles).  He was hilarious!

 Uncle Damon tossing Will.

 Ella playing some water basketball and Will floating.

 The gang (minus me and Aunt Amy) in the pool!  Why does it look like Ella is making an obscene gesture?!?!  That kid is too much...

 At the Aquarium.  One of our favorite spots.

 Winter the dolphin comes in for a close-up.

 Totally mesmerized. Pappy, too!

 At the sting ray tank with Nan.

 What a cheeser!

 Watching Winter and Panama the dolphins work with their trainers.
