Last few days

This last few days in Florida have gone very fast. On Monday I went with Belinda's friends and their children to Young At Art. Lily and Thierry had a great time and didn't want to leave at lunchtime when the other children had had enough. It's a very hands on place with interesting exhibits and activities.




In the afternoon Kelly and arthur took the children fishing. Grandad was the only one to get a catch but they had a good time.






Thierry has got stronger and stronger in the pool (when he concentrates!). Arthur and I enjoyed the pool last week when the children were at Summer Camp ... and a quiet time reading in the sun. It always seems a shame to spend so much time indoors when we are here but it is often too hot to spend long outside.

Summer Fun



Lily and Thierry are having a wonderful time.

This week they have been going to a daily Summer Camp at Nova Gymnastics which has given us some relaxing time during the day. Every day camp has had a different theme and they have dressed accordingly. Today they had to go dressed in favourite sports jersey so they both wore their England football kits.

Swimming Champs

Not to be out done by Lily, Thierry swam for the first time today without aids. Just a few strokes but he was so proud of himself and did it over and over until worn out.

Pirate Party

Today was Lily and Thierry's 5th birthday party. As they are both 5 in August they shared this year's Pirate Party. It was a really great day and there were two very tired children at the end (not to mention the exhausted adults!).

Family night at Sweet Tomatoes



Tonight we had dinner at Sweet Tomatoes. It's family night and the face painting is free. We ended the night with two terrible tigers. It was great fun.

Beautiful Wedding with a difference


We were very happy to be able to be at Belinda's wedding on Saturday. It was a wonderful occassion and a beautiful day.



Belinda and Kelly shared their very special day with Lily who looked so beautiful.






We travelled to the marina on a Sun Trolley. Lily and Thierry couldn't wait to get on they were so excited. Then it was a boat ride out to Stiltsville. It was a fantastic venue and everyone had a great time. Belinda and Kelly also included Thierry in the wedding party as they got married on the dock at Stiltsville.
