Maddy is fearless when it comes to the waves. Normally she was running the other direction out to the shore!

Lauren took some great pics even though her lens was foggy from the heat. I stole pretty much all of these pics from her blog. Thanks Lo!
Maddy loved playing with Rio, Robbie's dog, and wanted him to follow her all over the beach. He was busy chasing birds and playing fetch for our little girl, but she didn't mind. I think she is saying here, "Come on Rio."
That night we went to Water Street for some seafood and to say we went to dinner for our anniversary. It was crowded and hot so our dinner was not the greatest night of our life, but it was good to spend more time with friends.
Before we left, Lauren and Trevor treated us to free tickets to the Aquarium. It is big enough to be a full morning, but not as crazy as Sea World. If you know my love/fear of aquatic life, you know I can only take so much. We got to see...


a bunch of sting rays...
Nemo and Dory (Maddy did not understand why they were not on her DVD screen and swimming around in a tank)...

and Mr. Turtle (this is about as close as she would get).
Maddy loved the dolphins and would follow them as they swam in the tank.

We tried to pet a sting ray, but Maddy really just enjoyed putting her hands in the water and watching them swim around.

Like her daddy, Maddy is not always so agreeable when it comes to posed pictures. I thought this bench with the name and the waves in the background would be the perfect shot, but she wanted to see something else so we moved on.

One of these little guys only had 3 fins.
