Sparkles :)

Beach time

A trip to Florida isn't complete without some fun in the sand and sun :)

 Lillian and Mama taking Selfies

 Mama's sparkles

 Meanwhile back in the sand...
Cooper has already preferred land over water but he did come out to splash a few times or to fill his bucket.

We are loving visiting family, soaking up sunshine, and spending time together.
God is good and we are blessed :)
