Playing on the trampoline

I thought I should get a couple of pictures posted this week since it has been awhile. Today is a beautiful sunny day, 29 degrees. Alicia and Brandon were outside playing on the trampoline. Here are a couple of pictures and videos.

Sears pictures

We had some pictures of Brandon and Alicia done at Sears. Here are a couple of them.








At the condo

At the condo we spent most of the time cooling off in the ocean and the pool (although can't really say we cooled off in the pool since it was so warm it was like a bath) The construction noise was tolerable the 1st week, but the 2nd week they started using the jake hammer right outside the front door. It made the whole condo shook.

Malcolm and Brandon loved trying to capture lizards.They even got other kids in the complex trying to catch them.

They also tried capturing crabs on the beach

Strike a pose.

Sea World

The next day we visited Sea WorldBrandon and Malcolm hiding behind Shamu
Alicia thought she joined on the fun
We got to pet the rays and tried to feed them (they weren't much interesed in the the food we were trying to give them, on the other hand, the birds were very interested).

Then we fed the seals. They were much more receptive.
Alicia thought they made lots of funny noises.
Sharks (Hervé's favorite exhibit)
and of course we couldn't miss the Shamu show.

Disney

While down in Florida Melissa and Malcolm joined us to visit Disney.

Here is Brandon and Malcolm talking it up with Buzz Lightyear Brandon and I tried cooling off on the water log (it was 36 degrees outside)

Visiting Margot and family

We visited Margot, Joshua and Ella in Barrie.
Everyone enjoyed Joshua's new swing set.

Let me help you down the slide Alicia...

Meeting Ella for the first time. Alicia even lent Ella her all time favorite Piglet to hold.
Playing with the bubbles was a blast. Good thing Joshua kept putting the top back on otherwise Brandon probably would have knocked over the bottle,

Joshua showing Alicia all the different things his car can do.

Alicia trying out Ella baby relax chair. She's way too big for it, but she thought it was nice and comfortable.

Wow lots of new toys to play with.

Ella seemed so light compared to Alicia.
