One of my guy friends here took me and Addi paddle boarding last week. It was not as hard as we thought it would be. We thought that we would fall in, but luckily we didn't! It was a beautiful night and Darvil was nice to take us out and take pictures for us.
One day, when we were not going to the beach, I decided that we would go explore instead of sitting at the house. First, we went to town and got some ice cream at toppers. Then we went to this secret garden place that has a really cool tree and a little lake. The girls had fun running around there. Then we went to the museum. It was pretty cool, but we were not there long. The girls wanted to see where the bunker was that my guy friends took me to. Then we headed over to race rock and south beach. When we got home, we washed all 5 cars with the boys. It was a fun, eventful day!
After the beach one day last week, their cousin asked us if we would like a ride in her car, also known as the 'jeepny'. Isn't it awesome?
Halli and her friend enjoy playing with stingray, crabs, jelly fish and making dribble castles when we go to the beach. The stingray was washed up on the beach, crazy huh?
What can I say? I get bored while the girls are playing with creatures!
My last day of church. These are the people who pick us up from the ferry to go to church and let us come to their house after church to eat and hang out. They are such a nice couple and I will really miss seeing them every week.
Goodbye Rocky Ledge!

More Activities
I know, I know.. you are all very surprised to see this. So am I! Especially since it is 1:15am. My computer, and my phone for that matter, both have problems. Sometimes they decide to work, and sometimes they don't. So, I have to take advantage when they do work! I have been very busy having fun this whole summer! I cannot believe that in just one week from tomorrow, we will be leaving this beautiful Island and in 2 weeks from tomorrow, I will be home! It's a good thing that I already have lined up a babysitting weekend with my favorite family in September. And of course I will get to see Brad, and everyone else!
We've done a lot of play-dates with friends. They were playing the laughing game with Halli's friend, Thyrza.
The kids got the 'doggie bowl' at toppers ice cream one day. It actually comes in a real dog bowl! I thought it was pretty funny and they love getting them.
Bachelorette party! So happy that I had friends to watch it with and so happy that she picked Roberto-- love him!! :)
This is the last week of lessons for the girls. They enjoyed, or not so much at times, going to sailing, tennis and golf. And I enjoyed watching them and relaxing.
We come to the big club at least twice a week to eat and play. Halli loves to climb on the rocks and we discovered another beach while doing so. There were so many jelly fish one day, and the kids caught at least 15 and put them on the beach and were playing with them. I was pretty grossed out!
Halli did a glow stick regatta that was pretty sweet, besides the fact that it was not dark. It was fun to watch her sail though and there was a pretty sunset. It did get dark by the time they were done. She had fun decorating her boat and getting glow sticks.
Me and the birthday girl. Lucy turned 10 on Monday.
She had a party with a few friends and they jumped off the dock. It was pretty windy, but they still had fun.
The girls love my friend, Addi, so Lucy invited her to come to her party too.
Yup, that would be the Weymouth boys. Philip, Carter and Jamie... gotta love them!
They played capture the flag, flew a kite and some other fun game in the back yard for a while. It was fun to watch them and a bonus to watch the beautiful sunset!
These would be two of the most awesome, beautiful beaches I have ever been to- Isabella and Chocomount. It is even better that there are never many people there since everybody goes to either Hay Harbor, or the Big Club all of the time. We don't go to them much, but I don't know why!
