Universal

Last weekend Aunt T and Uncle Frankie came to town and took Bella to Universal and Islands of Adventure for the first time. Bella had so much fun with them and I think they had fun playing mommy and daddy for the day. 

 she missed her mom and dad though and wished we were there :) 

 I think this photo is hilarious! They put her in a pretend seat for the Hulk Roller Coaster and told her to scream

 Her absolute favorite person/show right now is Barney and Universal had a Live Barney show and playground. Bella was in heaven and loved meeting him

Pottery Painting

Last week we headed to Volusia County and did some pottery painting with some people from work.

Bella with her friends, Alexandra and Samantha (Nancy's girls)

 we decided to paint a spoon rest since daddy broke ours

 she insisted on painting it purple (her new favorite color) for the record, nothing in the house is purple

 if you zoom in on this picture you can see that she decided to add this teal color as well. We get to pick it up in 2 weeks and I have a feeling that it will be the most beautiful spoon rest ever and Bed Bath and Beyond will be knocking on our door to get her designs. 

 besides painting she had a good time hanging out with this big stuffed bear

Beach 2012

Last summer we took Bella to the Fort Lauderdale Beach in the evening for a little sneak peek at the beach. Yesterday we took her for her first real beach day. We packed our bags, coolers and toys and headed out to Cocoa Beach. She was so excited to go!
