Eleanor and Henry had a fabulous final week of 2018 visiting with our family in Florida. It was great to get some warm weather and hit the beach and the pool. There was lots of pool time, playing games with our cousins and of course some Mexican Train with Great Grandma. This year I finally got the kids to join me out on a sailboat, although Henry didn’t like it and wanted to go back to shore quickly. Eleanor stayed out with me for the full hour, and really enjoyed the ride, as well as dipping her feet into the ocean and learning a bit about how to control the sails.
This year, in addition to the pool, Henry really liked playing Newcomb ball (the cool kids call it Nuke ‘Em) out on the beach volleyball court. Eleanor played once, but mostly just wanted to stay in the pool all week.
