Long Boat Key!

We just got back from our long weekend in Long Boat Key with Grandpa David and Stephanie! We had such a great time, the weather could not have been any more amazing and the weekend flew by! The girls spent the majority of the time in the water of course! They loved swimming at Stephanie's big pool and Stephanie bought the girls a whole bunch of fun bubbles! We played on the beach, had some really yummy dinners and Grandpa even took the girls to the Mote Aquarium. It was really neat and the girls loved it. I missed capturing it on camera (of course) but there was a GIANT Manatee (1700) pounds that swam straight at the girls and smooshed it's face against the window glass at us. It was absolutely hysterical. Matt did get a video of the girls touching some starfish which they thought was pretty neat. They tried to touch the stingrays but they were just a little too fast for us! We had lunch at The Salty Dog right on the water and the people behind me kept saying how amazed they were at how well behaved the girls were!(they had their moments but for the most part they were awesome on our trip!) It was a great time and we're so lucky that it's only 4 hours away!
