Devlin's first fishing trip.

Devlin has fished in lakes, but has never gone out on the Bay. We were unsure how he would be on the boat, but he loved it! Just need to get him a better rod for his next trip.  

Boca Grande 2017

This past week, we took our annual beach trip. This year we rented a house in Boca Grande. This was definitely our favorite house that we have rented. The house also came with a 6 person golf cart.

The house was across the street from the beach, but we had direct beach access.

The beach was never crowded.

 

 In the afternoon, we would ride the golf cart around the island.

Muffins with Mom

The twins' preschool hosted "Muffins with Mom" today. The twins made paper fans and ate about 5 times their weight in food. I am not sure there was anything left when they were done. I tried to get some nice pictures with the twins, but they were not into it. 

 Mom's biggest fan!
