Boating Trip





We took Adrianna on her first boat ride. She surprised us all!!! I thought for sure it was going to be quite a day but she proved me wrong. Friends of ours Lindsey and Ryan took us out on there boat. We started down in Nokomis and ended at the Old Salty Dog on Longboat Key. Adrianna slept the whole way there which had to of been a good hour or so due to us only going what felt like 5 miles an hour. :) She slept on the bow of the boat under a make shift tent to keep her out of the sun. When she woke up we were just arriving at the Old Salty Dog. We had a nice lunch..fed the girls..gassed up and headed back for Nokomis. On the way back we saw a huge loggerhead and a bunch of dolphins. Before heading home we had to make one more stop..Snake Island. Adrianna had her first experience with the ocean there and she loved it. She was looking around like where am I and then just started slapping the water and laughing. It was too cute. Here are some pictures hope you all enjoy!!!!

First 4th of July





Another first holiday down. This 4th we spent with our friends Lidnsey & Ryan and their daughter Olivia. We hung out by the pool and Mike and Ryan grilled. It was a lot of fun. Then we had Tommy and Kira's Wedding to go to. It was a blast..We were able to see the fireworks from the reception hall. They were amazing. By the end of the night Adrianna had enough. Needless to say the car ride home was not fun :)
Also I wanted to share with everyone the beautiful video that my brother-in-law Chris put together. It was absolutely wonderful. I have watched it a million time and everytime I cry. She is getting so big!!! I can't believe how time flys!!! Hope you all enjoy. Here is the link.

Trip to New York and New Jersey




Adrianna and I had a chance to visit our extended families up North. We had a blast. First was New Jersey. We stayed with my Aunt Lynn which worked out so well. She has a crib, toys, and a highchair...all of which we did not have to bring..thank god! There she met all of her Aunt's, Uncle's and cousins on my Dad's side. Then it was off to New York where she met her Aunt, Uncle and cousins on Mike's side. We spent the day with Aunt Tina, Uncle Robby, Bobby and Tatiana. GG Joan and GPa Tom were there!! Adrianna went swimming in the pool with Tatiana and loved it. Then it was off to the wedding where she met the rest of her Aunt's, Uncle's and cousin's on my mom's side. I am so glad she was able to meet everyone. It was a lot for her but I think she enjoyed it. Especially the time she spent playing with her cousin's.
