Catch up!

29 Nov

I have about 400 new pictures from spending time with family last week! I have a lot to share but the awesome week began when my mom and her fiance tom flew in on the 20th! (Warning – photo dump ahead) We ended up meeting them at Clearwater Beach Sunday afternoon.  It was a beautiful, warm and perfect day.

“Woohooo Nana’s comin!”

It was the first time we had taken Zo to the beach since we moved here and she loved it! As we waited for mom and tom to arrive she kept rolling in the sand, putting handfuls in her hair and chasing the sea gulls – she was just so happy. I definitely need to make beach days a weekly thing..

My mom told me afterwards she was so worried Zoey wouldn’t let her hold her since it had been a month since the last time they had seen each other.  She debated on buying Twizzlers on the ride over just in case – but of course Zo started running as soon as she saw her Nana..

We didn’t bring bathingsuits to go swimming – thinking it wouldn’t be hot enough to actually get in the water – but that didn’t stop Zo!

After the beach we went to a dinner theater my mom had looked up from the airport – little did we all know we would be the youngest people there! The lady told us it started at 4 and to be there by 3:30 – after we paid we found out it didn’t actually start til 6!  We ended up staying and taking turns chasing lizards with Zoey outside. We should have got the hint after seeing the “early bird” on the menu.. 🙂

It was so so so great to see you momma and tom – we miss you already! More pictures to come!

    She looks like she loved the beach! Rylin still isn’t sure about it! I didn’t realize you guys were so close to Tampa. You guys should check out the FL Aquarium in Tampa! It’s so neat!

    You were right by my house! I love Clearwater Beach but we’ve been going to Treasure Island lately because it’s less crowded.
