We spent a lot of time on Sunday and Monday and Tuesday morning at the outdoor pools. You'll need to imagine those pictures, as I forgot to take any. They had a lot of fun playing in the water with their cousins.
Amelia was splashing in the big pool, and crawling in the baby pool. Mackenzie swimming and "diving" for rings and doing cannonballs off the side. Isabel getting braver and braver swimming with 2 floaties, then 1, and then trying no floaties on the stairs.
Just settling in - a tired Isabel plays with the Playmobil stuff we brought
and a blurry and washed-out, but very cute pic of Mackenzie and Johnny playing with Amelia (the flash didn't work right, unfortunately)
Tuesday afternoon we went to the beach in the afternoon with Grampy Sterl. The girls spent a lot of time burying his feet. This was the beach he went to with his parents and siblings when he was a little boy.
Mackenzie and Isabel burying Grampy's feet. Then Amelia wanted to help
Amelia really liked playing in the sand
Tuesday evening, Uncle David was singing at a local restaurant. Cousin John sang a song too. The girls loved watching John (and David) sing, and also really enjoyed the outdoor play structure at the restaurant.
Here are some shots of Johnny singing
but I like this one best
The audience was clearly entranced
Even John's little brother Adam was watching (ish)
swiped from Kristin and David, a picture of Grampy Sterl and Rachel with Amelia from the concert:
Uncle Alec gave the girls t-shirts from his Las Vegas trip. They were awfully cute.
