7 Months & Thanksgiving

Here are 7 month pics and some from Thanksgiving day. We went to the park with the Reids. Bridget loved the swing!!

Lots of Fun!

We have had a busy week! Last Saturday we went to the 23rd Sandsculpting Festival on Fort Myers Beach. It was really cool. There was probably a dozen professionals that had been working since thursday night. There were also a few amatures. Bridget thought they were all so funny and I think she wanted to go play in the sand!
Wednesday night we went to our first Everblades game! That is the minor league hockey team here in Ft. Myers. It was lots of fun..... Bridget was enthralled by the players. She couldn't figure them out at first, but she was smiling and laughing the whole game!
Friday night we went to the Coconut Festival here in Cape Coral. It was one of the biggest carnivals that I have ever seen. They had lots of rides, games, and food. Friday night was country night and so we got to see Bombshell and James Otto. Bridget's first concert! There were also fireworks..... Bridget couldn't stop staring. Her eyes lit up and got bigger with each boom!
Today grandma and grandpa Preston came over for the day and we went to the Boat Show. Bridget got and played with her first balloon. Boy did she think that was the best thing in the world! What a great week! Now it's time to rest up for our trip to MI this weekend!

Trick or Treat!

Bridget's 1st Halloween was a blast! We went over to Boca to visit grandma and grandpa. Friday night Alex and I went with Jason and Andrea to an adult Halloween party. Lots of fun! Then Saturday evening we went with the Reid family to have some food and then take the kids trick or treating. They were so cute! Xavier and Max were Pirates and Bridget was a Shark! She was all for going up to the house and grabbing for the candy when offered. It was super cute and mommy got some candy! Also grandma made some cookies to take...... they were bats and Sharks!!

Atlanta!

Two weekends ago we decided to head up to Atlanta to visit Shane and Bryan. It was lots of fun and pretty good weather too. We even went to the Georgia Aquarium on Saturday! Bridget LOVED it!! (even though she slept through part of it) They have a huge tank with 3 Whale Sharks and tons of other fish in it. It was amazing! They also have a petting pool with Bonnethead Sharks, and 2 kinds of Stingrays (de-stingered of course). The stingrays kept coming right up to where Bridget was looking over the side and like flapping out of the water. She kept reaching for them, so I leaned her over the edge to possibly touch one. She stuck her hand right down there and touched them, twice!! Such a daredevil baby!
Saturday night we went to this really good BBQ restaurant called Swallow at the Hallow. If you are ever in ATL and feel like some BBQ.... you need to look this place up! Alex and Shane thought it was the best BBQ ever! All in all it was a really good visit and we can't wait to go back soon! =)
