Fun at the Ocean - Thursday in Florida

Thursday morning we woke up, put our shorts on, and headed downstairs to play outside.  I think one of Henry's favorite things we did while we were there was playing mini golf.  He loved it and would have played the entire time if we would have let him. 


Henry actually understands the concept, where Hannah isn't quite sure.  She knows she liked to pick up the ball at anytime, even if people are trying to hit it!



We then hit up the sand.  Playing in the sand at 9am isn't too bad of a deal!


We then loaded up the kids in our rental van and headed for the beach.  It was so beautiful!!  At first both kids weren't quite sure what to think of the sand and ocean (water as far as you can see!), but they warmed up to it really fast.

Picture of our awesome balcony.  Many hours were spent out here the four days we occupied the unit.


View from our balcony.  Awesome pool.  We came at the right time too, because hardly anyone was there!  January is definitely the time to visit Florida. 


After we hit the beach we suited up the kids and spent some time at the pool.  It was a little chilly in the shade, but once the sun hit it was perfect. 


Henry wore himself out.  He honestly almost fell asleep floating around the pool on his inner tube.  He finally agreed to get out and lay on my lap.  Not five minutes later was he fast asleep!  I can't remember the last time this kid has fallen asleep on my lap!!


After the kids woke up from their 3 hour naps (awesome!), we had a great dinner.  Grilled burgers and crab legs.  Yummy!!

Dinner time with our surf and turf.


One more visit to the playground.

And of course another game of mini golf in the dark. 


Winding down with Grandma Schmidt for the night. 

Ocean, mini golf, playground, swimming, and lounging pretty much sums up our Thursday.
