Joshua made a party hat for a pretend party.

Practicing her technique

Clean up, clean up, everybody clean up!

Even the toddlers got into chores. Joshua brought his own vacuum cleaner with him. Haylie worked with the broom. This was one of their most successful cooperative playtimes. Notice that each child is wearing one of grandma's flip flops! They initiated this game and enjoyed it several times.

Haylie did quite well in her pink and purple fish float.

This rare, curly, red-headed fish was seen frolicking in the Sandpiper Dunes pool on several occasions.

A busy, bubbly balcony

Watch out seagulls, Joshie is ready with his new squirt gun.

Waiting for the wind to catch the kite

But I don't want to go inside . . .

Haylie loved blowing bubbles on the balcony and would use every trick possible to stay out just a little bit longer.

The toddlers share one set of earphones as they watch "Little Bear". Grown-ups commandeered the big TV this time!

A boy and his dream

Hannah exhibits calm confidence on her steed.

Hey, look at me. I'm riding!

Haylie's first Pony Ride

Ice Cream Time!

It was a warm day and these pardners (Joshua and Hannah) seem to be enjoying a cool treat.

I wanna kiss him

Who's having more fun - the goats or Josh?
