St. Augustine Weekend, Part 2

What was originally meant to be a weekend trip to Columbus, turned into an impromptu St. Augustine vacation. So wonderful and relaxing!

We originally set out on Friday morning to take the kids to play at the neighborhood playground but RIGHT when we were about to get the kids out of the truck, a man with his pitbull decided that the playground was an appropriate place for his pitbull to run around while he did pullups on the swings. So since we are not familiar with playgrounds in St. Johns/Duval County, I went to the Parks and Rec website to scope out some possible alternatives. Here we are at this terrible playground in Jacksonville. I won't name any names, but this was a terrible excuse for a playground. F. The kids did seem to enjoy themselves a little...I mean, anywhere that has a slide and rings is okay with them...


After the terrible park, we headed to Larry's Subs. Yummy!

We finished just in time to take the kids to see their first movie at the movie theater - Toy Story 3. They loved it! TJ definitely takes after his dad in that he will sit at attention and watch an entire movie...no sweat. Olivia is more like her mom. She sat quietly through it, but you could tell she was a little restless and was fighting sleep. My girl! (I have been known to fall asleep in the theater before the OPENING credits...darn previews get me everytime).

Although they don't look like it in this picture, they did enjoy the experience. They haven't stopped talking about it!
On Saturday, we were able to hook up with our good friends, the Brady Family, for a wonderful morning at the pool.
They LOVED playing with their friend, Tyson.



What a beautiful family! Thanks for a great time, Bradys!
