Running around looking for a good rain puddle.

One more thing, the Inspiration Through Art website is currently using some shots of Will. Click on the second "dot" underneath the large photos towards the top of the page to see his.

 He's also on their flyer (bottom right corner):

 

*there's his first wedding

Will got to meet lots of family and attend his first wedding while we were in Florida at the beach. 

Dancing with Gracie

These are the best shots I could get of him in his wedding outfit.

With Nina, Gracie, and Natalie. They are three of his second cousins, once removed.

This is pretty indicative of his activity level at the reception.

Thanks to Will's second cousin Brittany for having a destination wedding! 

Getting to see lots of family and spending time at the beach made for a great trip.

*there's his first trip to the beach

Last week Will visited a beach for the first time in Sandestin, Florida.

Heading to the beach

Seeing the sand for the first time.

Wishing he was in the water instead of taking pictures.

The calmest and most beautiful water we have ever seen in the gulf. Perfect for his first visit.

Burying himself

That's not a pool, it's the gulf!

 

Back in the afternoon for more.

Building sandcastles with Daddy

 

 Will also got to play with my college friend Leah's kids on the trip. 

They live at the beach and are the perfect age to be Will's playmates.
