2010 ISR Refresher

I'm Ready for My Close Up

I have no idea where you heard this phrase or even know how to pose. But I think that it's as cute as can be. I love it!!! Almost as much as I love You!

Tour of Raymond James

Again, Thanks to MOTG, an event was planned for a personal tour of Raymond James Stadium, home of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This is also where Mommy and Daddy's Alma matter, USF's Bulls, play their home games.

Unfortunately, Daddy was not able to join us for this tour (although, I know that he would have really enjoying it) because he was away on business in Boston. But thankfully Grandma came along for reinforcement.

Steering the infamous Pirate Ship

Typically the ship is off limits but today the group was granted access.

Day out With Thomas

Thanks to Moms on the Go, I heard about the Thomas the Train event in Parrish, Florida. Apparently, Thomas travels around the United States and stops in different cities offering activities and train rides to children everywhere.

Work Hard and Play Hard

Today we went to a friend of mommy's daughter's birthday party. Actually, Robin was Khun Tha's wine rep 13 years ago. After over a decade of her and her husband's hard work building their business they are able to enjoy several luxuries in life. One of those luxuries is throwing a very extravagant birthday party for their daughter, Riley. Hopefully, Daddy and I will be able to provide for you and Vaughan the same way in the years to come.

Pool Time with Vaughan

Getting harnessed so that you can bungee jump.

Yay!!! You have been asking me bungee jump every time we go to Citrus Park Mall. Finally you were given the opportunity. Goes to show you, mommy was wrong. I thought that you were too small to do this, but apparently you weren't.

Daddy's turn... Flips and all.

Butterfly Encounter

Unicorn Rides

Happy Birthday Riley!

Daddy was able to do the "difficult" course on the rockwall. Look at Hercules go.

Nothing better than some Cold Stone Ice cream.

Look at that, I made it out from behind the camera.

Complete with Fireworks for the Grande Finale.

Morale of the story: Stay focused, determined and work hard (and smart) and everything else will come.

Busch Gardens

Since the opening of Sesame Place, an area inside Busch Gardens, the theme park has given free commemorative annual passes to children under the age of 5 years old. So since, I was able to get you and Vaughan in for free, I purchased an annual passport pass which includes discounts on food, and souvenirs and best of all free parking (even the preferred stroller parking which is just outside the gate).

Well, Moms on the Go decided to go as a group and boy let me tell you, I was a nervous anxious wreck for the days leading up to it. I knew that Daddy couldn't go because he had to work. I even contemplated not going the night before but I am glad that I didn't because it really was bad at all, thanks to the group that we went with. Not that they did anything in particular, but I think just knowing that you have help if you need it, works wonders on the nerves.

You two had the best time. I am so glad that I didn't change plans.
