Michael Time

This week while Kennedy was away at camp it was "Michael Time". We hada fun filled week..Monday after we dropped Kennedy off we stopped at Circle K and picked up junk food for the ride home and went swimming. Dinner was outside per Michael's request. Tuesday we went to the movies, came home and had friends over for more swimming. Wednesday we went to Sea World (Thank you Auntie Cathy and Uncle Larry) for the first time this summer. We had such a great time. We saw all the shows and exhibits that HE wanted.

Today (Thursday) we went to the beach with our great friends, The Cavanaughs. It was overcast and kinda chilly, but that didn't stop Michael. As soon as our towels hit the beach, he hit the water. He has grown up so much since last summer. Before he loved the water but was a little hesitant.

Today, he jumped right in and went out farther then he ever has. He had so much fun playing in the waves. His smiles lit up the cloudy day.

After about 10 minutes he ran up to our stuff, grabbed his Boogie Board and without hesitation, flew into the water with it. I gave him a bit of instruction to turn it around and kick when the wave came...he was hooked. Check out the pictures and his face.. pure joy!!

We played football and soccer too. Perfect day for my boy.
I am so proud of him.

BTW- his behavior this week has been OUTSTANDING!! The dream child!!
