Fun in the Sun

After two fun filled days taking in the Magic Kingdom, we decided to spend the third day of our trip close to home where we could relax and take it easy. Steve's buddy Matt had an awesome ski boat for us to take out and the kids had the best time swimming in the water. Now, they say that every body of water in Florida has at least one alligator in it and I will admit this made me a little nervous. We made sure to do our swimming during "people time" as the locals like to call it, but rest assure I made sure Steve was swimming with Sarah while I sat on the boat and scanned for eyes. :-) Fortunately, no alligators were spotted, but our little girl turned into quite the fish. It took a little bit of coaxing at first to get her into the water, but once she did, she never wanted to get out.

We also got Sarah out on the tube which was a lot of fun. We pulled her slowly behind the boat at first, but then Steve joined her and they went for a faster ride. She loved it and you could see her laughing the whole time. It was great!


Sarah eating grapes as we get started. The only thing missing was someone to fan her! :-)


Swimming...FINALLY!


Sarah loved jumping to Daddy, but she had very specific instructions for him. His hands had to be visible at all times so she could ensure he would catch her. :-)


Steve...the wake board king!


Getting ready for some tubing.

Here is a video of Sarah jumping to her Daddy. Very cute.

Great pictures. Sarah looks like she is having a good time in the water

That sure looks like a lot of fun -- especially for Sarah. She was really brave to jump from the boat. What a great way to end a Florida/Disney World vacation.

Photos are great and the videos are so nice to see since we are so far away. You are much better than I am at putting the videos out there. Keep up the good work.
