Mother's Day cont...More Beach pictures

Reed boogie boarding...you can't see it, but he's grinning from ear to ear!
Hmm...do you think we took this ourselves?

Daddy and Cass heading out to the reef for her FIRST snorkel trip!


Like father...like daughter!
I really see the resemblance around the eye area...don't you?



This is part of the reef they snorkel.

Check out Reed!
He LOVES to dive down (about 6-8 feet) to see what is under the
ledges and such! (FYI - I don't do this...I'm a chicken AND I'm still not all that great at clearing the water from my snorkel without choking. But my 6 year old has NO such problems!)
And pay no attention to the LONG flowing blonde hair...the boy is getting a hair cut Saturday morning.

Happy kids in the waves.

Mom and Dad gave us this underwater camera for Christmas. But we haven't really had much chance to try it out because no one- except for those 6 years and under- were willing to actually stick their heads under the coldy water!

But summer has arrived and the water is now quite perfect! So we took it with us to Coquina Beach on Mother's Day. As you can tell from the previous post, we haven't worked out all of the kinks, but I think it is so cool to have a camera we can swim with!

Thanks, parents!

I love the "water pictures"!! The family looks like they are making a travel advertisement. We may all come to Florida to swim at Coquina Beach (again). I think you did a great job with the pictures - Reed and Cassidy really are fish!.
Love you all,
Gram Ava

The pictures really are great! I am very proud of Reed and Cassidy and their growing skill at snorkeling. I am looking forward to doing some swimming with you this summer.

Love, Pa David
