Spring Break 2010

So off to Florida we went for Spring Break 2010 - our first family vacation.

We stayed in Northport, FL at my parents' friends' vacation place. (You know you're in a warmer place when two of the outside walls of the house open up completely to the backyard.) It was great to get some fresh air, warm sun, see the ocean, and even catch a nap.

Some days were sunny. Some days were chilly. And one day it rained. But we managed to have fun with everyday.


We strolled along the coast in one of the small towns and stopped to play in the park.












Malcolm was able to get out and about to practice his walking around. He also swam with Mom, Nonna, and Auntie Laura in a pool, which he didn't seem too thrilled about doing.













But he did love the beach. It was too cold to enjoy the water, but Malcolm didn't care because it was the sand he loved. We think that he must have thought that it was cool that he could move the ground with his hands.

And when we couldn't be out and about, Malcolm found plenty to do indoors like



play with Laura,










nap with Papa,









snack.





We had a wonderful time and look forward to the next trip.
