Visit to St. Augustine

When Derek got home from rehearsal this afternoon, we took a trip to St. Augustine. We had a very nice time. It was sprinkling a little, but at least it was not too hot. A few of the places close early, so we will have to go back another time for the tours. We ended the evening at a seafood restaurant called Salt Water Cowboys. Weird name, but excellent food. The atmosphere was neat as well. The ladies bathroom even had a leak in the ceiling. Thanks for the recommendation Denise! Here are some pictures of our time in St. Augustine.
Grandpa, Grandma and Ethan at the fort. The fort was closing so we will do the tour another time. We just walked around it today.

Derek, Ethan and Aubrey sitting on a cannon. Ethan thought they were really cool.

This is where they heated up the cannon balls.


This is the oldest wood school house in the U.S. (if you couldn't read the sign:))

This is my favorite picture. Derek had Ethan pose at the Outhouse. It was hilarious in person.We learned that the Dunce hat was not really for the bad students, but the slow learners. This is what they did with the bad students. They would put them in a tiny little room all by themselves. Ethan had to make sure that it was not a real boy. We assured him that he was pretend.

Aubrey said her first sentence today! She said, "I want to walk." I love that she can communicate more now. It is so nice for her to be able to express what she wants instead of Ah, Ah all the time.
