Guess Where

Guess where I just got back from. I had a week of training in this city.

The 2nd most famous attraction is a river running through the center of city.
Restaurants and shops line the sides of the river. There are also river tours that teach you the history of the town.
This next picture should give it away.
And the answer is: San Antonio.

Panama City Beach Vacation

We spent the past week in Panama City Beach with family. There were about 25 of us in all. We stayed in condos right on the water. On with the pics!!!!

If you asked Piglet what her favorite part was, she'd probably say the swimming pool. She seemed like she enjoyed playing with her cousins even more.

But the pool sure was fun for Piglet.

Cousin Aidan stayed in our room. She is learning to share with her friends, as seen here with her truck.

Have you ever just known that your kid would enjoy something if they'd only try it, but they were too scared? That is how I feel about the slide at the kiddie pool. I finally got her to do it, but she didn't like the water splashing in her eyes at the bottom.

Cousin Christian sure didn't mind.
Neither did cousin Emily.

Cousin Aidan was too young to even know what was happening. I think he enjoyed it though.

We spent a lot of time at the swimming pool. I think if her Papa decides to move to Alabama, maybe he should have a swimming pool. I'll have to get Piglet to start working on him.

Here is one of those examples of catching things from Mommy. Piglet waters the flowers just like Mommy does at home.

Birthday Continued

This is JD, the same JD that threw me off of him years ago. Katie just loves this donkey for some reason and talks about him constantly. When you say that we are going to Jacksonville she first smiles and says "Papa" and then "JD". Needless to say we went to visit JD and Papa JO for Katie's birthday.
Papa tried to ride JD but it didn't happen.

We also went for a visit to the beach. It was very windy that day so Kaitlin wanted nothing to do with the ocean but she did enjoy walking on the beach with Papa.
The next weekend we went to Oxford for Katie's 3rd party. We saw Meme, uncle David, Papa Jack, Mema, and Big.
We had 3 cakes. One was a strawberry cake for me, one a chocolate cake for Uncle David and this was Katie's cake. They were all so yummy.

Jacksonville Birthday

Piglet has had three birthday celebrations. The first one was at home on her actual birthday. The second was the weekend after her birthday in Jacksonville. I'll put some pics up from the third party later on. Maybe the best part was having her cousins Yaya and Charoline with us. Their actual names are Olivia and Caroline, but that is how their names come out.

Our friends Nannette, Eric and Josiah (shown below) joined us for the party.
There was also a lot of family there.


Piglet loved her Pooh Bear cake.





More from the Jacksonville weekend and birthday party #3 later on.
