vacation April 2011

We are staying at Sally's family house in Boca Grande. It is this wonderful beach home with 5 bedrooms, 8 beds, and two bathrooms. Call me a hedonist, but my favorite part is showering outdoors with Sam and Joshua and having Joshua wash my hair and Sam scrub my back. Sam, being the young lady she is, refuses to shower naked. She has no problem mooning people from the ocean. Sam and I float a bit further out, about hip deep, and make up moves for the deeper waves. My favorite was Sam doing Parrot, Pirate doom! and Princess twirl. It is heaven here, and the best part is playing and laughing with Sam. She did magic tricks during lunch, really, really bad magic tricks. She would do them anyway with a big tada flourish at the end and then giggle with me and Josh. Fun! We flew a kite today. Joshua ran up and down and yelled "I'm flying a kite, look, a kite!" at these two men running up the beach. They were charmed and thought it looked like fun.

We are also watching Speed Racer. Joshua is entranced. Vacation is fun.
