Day in Miami

On Friday, October 14th, we enjoyed a day in Miami.  We had breakfast at the hotel, then the boys wanted to go swimming.  So, we got in our swimsuits and went back downstairs to the pool.  Surprisingly the water was not freezing, it was pretty nice.   

Nyles, Carter, Hudson and I in the pool.

Aunt Diane play w/ the diving rings w/ Hudson.  

Nyles and Carter getting air pockets in their shirts for fun.

Steve and Dave then ran to the store to get some things for everyone.  They saw a few chicken/roosters running around the streets on the way (too funny!).  After we were done swimming, we went back up to the room to get changed.  The boys were hungry after swimming of course, so we popped some microwave popcorn as a snack.  The boys also played w/ some "Plus Plus" puzzle blocks.

Steve and Dave picked up some lunch for us all, then we drove over to the South Pointe Pier Park.  After parking, we walked through the park and enjoyed the beautiful scenery.

Steve and Joann on the walkway.  Beautiful views of the ocean.  Cute boys!

Steve taking some pics.

Some silly cats we found next to the walkway just relaxing.

Family pic.  Cute Hudson loves the swings.  

We saw some cool green Iguanas running up the Palm Tress.

Carter playing at the playground, and Hudson on the swing again.

I wanted to see what was at the end of the walkway, so Nyles and I went ahead to check it out.  

It connected to a cool Pier going out into the ocean.

We saw some cool Jelly Fish swimming in the ocean.  It started to rain on us, but it was still awesome!

Nyles, Carter and I then went over to the beach.  A Carnival cruise ship also came rolling by while we were there.  This is the path all the cruise ships take to get out into the ocean.  It got us excited for our cruise the next day.  We saw really cool sea shells at the beach and a fun lighthouse lifeguard tower too.

Different looking Seagulls, more cool shells, then Carter fell asleep on the way back from the park.

We then went over to Denny's for dinner.  Hudson was so silly, he kept wanting to eat the jelly packets.  Steve and Dave then took the rental van back while I got the boys ready for bed.  It was a fun day!
