Friday Night Lights

This past Friday was hot and perfect for an evening out at Quietwater Cove. Rick brought the sunfish and even though there was no wind and the water was glass like, the kids loved it.
Returning from their voyage Emma leaped in to start snorkeling for little spade fish

Reece loves going out on the docks with Rick and looking at the speed boats and catamarans. Mommy loves taking the walk down to Surf Burger and getting a Bushwhacker.





The kids could see a flame from across the beach as it got darker and like moths, searched it out until they discovered it was a tiki torch at the Bimini Beach Bar.



Adeline just helped herself up onto this rental catamaran. I think she thought it was a trampoline because she was just bouncing and jumping on it. It was a really nice time spent with the kids, a practically empty beach, clear water, and daddy home for once on a Friday night.


On our way home from the beach, the giant stadium lights were on over Gulf Breeze high school for their football game. We thought, " what the heck, we've never taken any of the kids to a high school football game before". So, we went. It was hot and sticky, but fun, we sandwiched ourselves between the band and about 30 kids dressed in toga outfits with Burger King crowns painted gold and bedazzled. It was Homecoming that night and the kids got to see the pretty dresses and tuxs, while also getting riled up. Go Dolphins, Show us some Fin. All the kids had on High School shirts that said Fins of Fury. Somehow I can't see a dolphin getting that angry.

Looks like a good time was had by all. You guys sure take advantage of living where you do - good for you! I agree with the Emma photo where she is jumping in the water that Robin noted - very cool and timely.
