Summer has officially been kicked off with the long Memorial Day weekend. We dabbled in a few fun summer things to give us just a taste of the next few months. We can no doubt enjoy summer things just about all year long down here in Florida, but some are just way more fun to do from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
My Aunt Dodie came down from Indiana for the long weekend and I think we all felt like we were on vacation with her as we spent days by the pool, eating out at fun restaurants and enjoying seconds...and maybe thirds...of our favorite cocktails! We missed her boys on this trip, but we will be up in their neck of the woods later this summer to see them all!
Bridget was way into this photo op..."One more!" she kept yelling out!
Dodie and Mom
Love this restaurant, The Fish House in Bonita Springs...Thanks Nicole for introducing it to us a couple of year ago!
Our new pool is not ready yet, but it's getting oh-so close! We'll be swimming by next weekend and we can't wait! Until then, it's the Bella Terra pool which isn't too shabby! We went up there on Monday for their annual Memorial Day BBQ. Swimming, burgers and dogs, a DJ and hula hooping contest which Little Miss B just had to be a part of!
Our pool!
The fine art of eating a Cheetoh...sucking all the "cheese" off.
Hope this video of Bridget in the hula hooping contest works! She was adorable and held her own considering she was by far the youngest hula hooper!
Looking forward to the next few months of summer fun!

Family time at the pool is the best. Your pool looks beautiful so far!
SO many fun things happening right now! Can't wait to see pictures of the finished pool. Quite impressed that Ross was sleeping poolside... perhaps he could teach Claire a few things!
Looks like a fun weekend! Um, Bridget can hula hoop better than me! No fair! hehe And John does the same thing with "cheeseballs" he ends up an orange mess. We haven't been to the fish house in forever, we'll have to go back now that you reminded me how much we like it!! :)
