The girls had fun releasing a bucket of shrimp back into the ocean. The guy with the boat next to ours will wonder where all his bait went...."BE FREE! BE FREE!"
We found our spot to watch the parade and anchored. While we waited for it to begin, Dad jumped in to do some dirty work...scraping barnacles from the hull. On deck, the girls painted watercolor scenes.
There were plenty of colorfully decorated boats this year, both shrimp boats like this one and pleasure craft.
The kids decided they wanted to jump in, too! They had a blast floating in their life vests just off the boat.
Ahh! The pool! The whole family enjoyed a good long swim. It was hot, and we had earned it! Haley had non-stop fun in the water, playing and swimming with boundless energy. Jenna was determined that she no longer wants to wear a floaty-suit, so she started her own "swimming practice" and actually learned to swim a short distance on her own!
