St. Augustine- Part 4

 After Zaza, Big Grandpa and Landin left we had just one and a half more days to enjoy the town.  We were able to run by St. Anastasia Catholic Church, and of course we had to get a picture of our sweet Anastasia underneath!

Then we went by the St. Augustine lighthouse.

And we had a nice dinner at Amici.

And we all love swimming in the evening.  

Anastasia slept so well as always.  Our babies have always been happy to sleep wherever their"things" (teddy bears, blankets, sound machine) are and go to bed really easily.   Anastasia slept in the laundry room like a champ!  :)  And we have our camera monitor so we can watch her.  :)

On Monday we went to the Fountain of Youth, the oldest theme park attraction in the United States.  It has a charm of it's own, and a wonderful planetarium and globe theater show.   We had a great lunch there as well.   

 

The park is known for it's beautiful peacocks-

After touring the park we had ice cream.

Then we headed over to Ripley's Believe it or Not!

It was a great time.  That night we swam one last time and packed the car.  The next day we drove home and made a quick stop at FSU so Marc could have a quick tour (it's time to start thinking about colleges!)

Then we stopped in Dothan and he got his driver's license!  It was hard to get an appointment in our town and we were tired of waiting! He did great!  He had already driven himself to the pool and football practice!

We also drove through Troy University, my alma mater.  And I had to swing by my old house- I lived here 2 1/2 years!  :)  The school is BEAUTIFUL!  It's really a wonderful campus.

St. Augustine- Part 3

 Last Friday Zaza, Big Grandpa and Landin met us in St. Augustine.  We were so happy to see them!  Zaza immediately went to cutting Marc's hair while I took the older children to the beach during Anastasia's nap time. 

We had a great dinner in the condo and then went on the porch to celebrate Anastasia's 2nd birthday!

 

Zaza got her a giant, soft bunny she LOVED!

 On Saturday we drove into town for a sight-seeing cruise.  :)

 We loved riding under a draw bridge!

We had a nice lunch at O.C. White's after the boat ride.  Then we came home and had another fun day at the beach and pool. 

Every night we had epic games of Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune on the Wii.  :) 

On Sunday they had to head home, but we had a fun morning at the beach .  We took a few more pictures together. 

 

Such a wonderful visit with our family!
