Vacation

So we just got back from our trip to visit the Montierth's and go camping on the Keys. It was so much fun. Scott loved the snorkeling, Ella loved being with her big cousins, and Kate loved being outside and the extra attention from Daddy.
We decided to drive down to Florida. It was an interesting trip but we made it. This is how Kate looked most of the time...Ella did well, she discovered she has a new talent.We were all excited to get to the Monthierth's. We planned to get there a day before out camping trip so we could relax a little and keep the girls out of the car. We went to the park where Scott flew paper airplanes with Bryn and Cody and the girls played on the swings and stuff.Then back at the house they made the biggest marble run ever!
Thursday afternoon we left for the Keys. We stayed at the John Pennekamp State Park on Key Largo. It is known for it's snorkeling. We got there and set up our tents. This was the welcoming committee.
Seriously. I guess they like grapes and stuff. We didn't test it out.
These are just some pictures of camping. Kris made us breakfast every morning. We all ate well.

Ella absolutely loved spending time with Bryn and feeling like a big girl. Bryn and Cody were so nice to her the whole week. On Sunday we traveled down the Keys and went to a church service at a small branch. The branch president said that there were four or five families in the branch. It made me thankful to have the huge ward we do here. After church we drove to Bahia Honda key and had lunch. It was absolutely beautiful.

Sunday evening after dinner we went on a walk. The kids had a blast. Bryn really enjoyed reading/hearing about all the plants and trees on the way. And of course, Ella loved to listen. This is Bryn explaining a plaque. (side ponytail courtesy of Bryn.)
Kate trying to keep up. We had a great time and did actually make it to the beach all though you can't tell from the pictures. Those are on my other camera and I'm having a hard time getting them off. Hopefully Scott can help me when he get's home and I'll post them then.
