Cypress Gardens

My class went on a field trip to Cypress Gardens. We took a boat ride, learned all about a couple different reptiles, and had a picnic lunch. It was great morning. I touched a turtle and a snake and got to look at a baby alligator up close. We all wear our red school t shirts. My mom came with us too. My parents have never been there before and mama says that we will definitely go back as a family. What a beautiful place!!

Look what I can do!

Loving building things, blocks, and puzzles. Notice how all the same colors are together...what does that mean? ;) All is great. I am now on summer break. This is day 3. Been hanging with my mom lots and finding other fun things to do. I am going out to Cici and Poppy's house for the night tomorrow. That is fun. We went to my friend Isaac's house yesterday to play. He is my best friend at school. Then my mom and I went to see a small abbreviated Michael Franti show. That was awesome. I will post pics soon. We saw him play at out local Half moon outfitters store. XXOOXXOO

Strawberry picking * scroll down to see more pics!

Strawberry picking

at Ambrose Farms. 10 pounds of organic berries. SO perfect and juicy! We made strawberry frozen yogurt and strawberry pie.

It was SUPER loud. WOW! Very cool to see though. My mama, daddy, Brett and I walked down the street towards the water and watched. Brett and I had a great time sharing the wagon. WOW- Those guys can fly! I cried (from the noise) a couple times when I didn't know they were coming up behind me. We should have had ear plugs in. I think I preferred to watch them from my porch, which we did, for the 2 days before they performed (it was their practice time). My mom and I went on a field trip with my class this morning. We went to Cypress Gardens and saw alligators, turtles, and snakes. I got to touch them too! We had a picnic lunch with my class. I had a great time. I am now getting ready to go and spend the night at Cici and Poppy's house. Hopefully we will have some time for swimming in the pool!

This NEVER happens! Look at us. How sweet it is! My favorite man in the world...MY daddy.
P.S. Happy 8th Anniversary to my mama and daddy. They told me this morning that it was their anniversary- whatever that means.
