4th Of July With Mimi

We had a fun filled day with Mimi on the 4th of July even though it rained all weekend.

We started off the morning making door hangers.

Then Mimi treated us to Mote Marine.  Mimi bought Blayke a really cool shark t-shirt and Mia a stuffed sea turtle.  We tried to pet the stingrays but they were not cooperating that day.

Then off we went along the gulf coast to introduce Mimi to geocaching.  She seemed to enjoy it.  We searched them out while she waited for us in the air conditioned car to bring back the find.  I think she got the better end of the deal with the rain and humidity we ran across.

Then we went off the the river front for the firework show.

The kids got a little impatient but.........

It was worth the wait.

We loved spending this time with Mimi.  The kids really missed her.  We are looking forward to seeing her again soon before we leave back home.
