July is Flyin' By!

 The kids go back to school in less than 3 weeks--- I cannot believe how fast the summer flew by!  Our days were filled with swim team, lifeguard camp, working at PBTS, VBS, pool and beach time, reading time, science camp, piano practice....... whew!

Here are some pics from the Fourth of July when my sister and nieces came down to stay.


The girls walking to the parade



PBTS parade helpers!

My mom and sister helped out out goodies along the parade route!


Enjoying the parade... it was hot though!



 While they were here, we went on a catamaran out in St. Andrew's Bay to snorkel and see dolphins. It was so much fun!!

Getting ready to board Island Time!

Mya the hula champ!

The highlights of the day were swimming with the dolphin and one person actually saw a baby hammerhead shark when we were snorkeling! We were all back on the boat at this point, though.  Whew!!
