Our mini trip to West Palm Beach

Ashleigh and I decided to take a short trip to West Palm Beach Tuesday-Today, to see our friends, Jennifer and her boys Andrew & Colin.  Ashleigh and Andrew had the best time.  We went to the beach the first night we arrived; it was so beautiful, and the kids had a great time running and splashing in the water.  I took a few pictures; however, since it was nighttime they did not turn out the greatest.  

The following day we went to a local water park; it was phenomenal.   The kids had so much fun.  Ashleigh and Andrew had to take a swim test to swim in the "big kids" pool.  The swim tests consists of swimming one lap without touching the ropes or the sides of the pool; Ashleigh passed it!  We were all so proud of her; what an accomplishment at age 4; swimming a lap in an olympic size pool.  I am SO PROUD OF HER!  The lifeguard made a comment that she was a really good swimmer and she rolls over to her back really well.  :)


**Oh, by the way the lifeguard that tested Ashleigh and Andrew was the oldest lifeguard in Palm Beach county; he was 75, but didn't look it. **

After all this fun, we went back to Jennifer's house and let the kids play a little while outside on Andrew's amazing tree house his grandfather built for him {I will be sure to put a pic of it up on here}.  Ashleigh wanted to spend all of her time at Andrew's house outside on this treehouse.


Today, we had to say our goodbyes and head back home.  We had a wonderful time and am very thankful for wonderful friends like Jennifer and her beautiful family.  


I will finish posting pictures later on tonight; however, I wanted to go ahead and get a head start.  Enjoy!
