We did some stuff in February.
We spent a Saturday at a free carnival event. Free food, free facepainting, free fun for the kids, free prizes and more free food.

We spent some time at a parade...
Let's take a moment to look at this picture. Notice the red bag about to hit McKenzie in the head?
Collette loved the parade. And why wouldn't she? There are really great things at parades in Florida...
Unexpected things, like pizza delivery guys:
and pimped out hummers towing pimped out air boats:
Random big trucks (the boys were in heaven):
Trucks that pick up recyclable goods:
Floats that have puppets:
Not only did they have puppets, they also had a basketball hoop on the back, with someone following behind shooting hoops:
also a lot of families just walking in the parade:
In Florida, instead of throwing out the standard candy, they throw pens. If any of you know Owen, you know that he was not disappointed by this. Owen LOVES to draw.
They also had an intermission, which was great because Owen needed a little break. We decided this was a sign that the parade was over... for us.
We spent some time at Birthday parties:
Let's take a moment to look at this picture. Notice the red bag about to hit McKenzie in the head?
Well, it did hit her in the head, about twenty or more times. Then the lady would turn around and hit her in the head with her little black bag, also about twenty times. Sweet Kenzie is too nice to stand up and tell the lady off. Instead she smiled for the camera so I could blog about it.

Kenz, this pic is just for your enjoyment:
We also spent some time on the boat so that I could try out my new ski (YAY!) and Owen, McKay and the dads could try out the tube:
Pretty successful trip on the water:

I don't think I mind living in Florida during winter months. Just sayin...

Its so crazy seeing you do summer like things while we are still freezing here.
You are always always doing something fun. Im so jealous, but so glad you are loving life in FL.
Florida parades/festivals are pretty ghetto, but that is what makes them awesome.
SOOOO many fun AND free things to do in the warm FLORIDA sunshine. I like the picture of the pimped out Hummer cause it reminded me of our St. Thomas days-its seems like the sort of vehicle we would have seen in a parade there....I'm pretty sure that LaVerne would have been driving it because wasn't she a part-time lawyer or something wild like that? Oh geez, good old LIPSTICK on the teeth LAVERNE.
p.s. Love the fact that even Collette has a tan!!!
