Happy St. Patrick's Day

A visit with Mama

We stopped by to see Mama for a couple hours one day.  Mercy was happy to show Mama her babies!  Here are a few pictures :)  Happy times!!!

The son was super bright!!!

Aedan and Simon

Simon climbed a palmetto tree.

Papa, Mercy and Sadie Mae

Mercy loved hanging out with the big girls at the crab shack!  Bentley (the one with the carrot necklace) is Brent's daughter.

 

If there's a tree available, Josiah will be climbing it!  Although climbing a tree with dead limbs may not be the wisest thing to do.

 

Folly Beach:

Since we are land-locked, going to the beach is a MUST!

Aedan and Simon

Simon tried to get a tan, but it wasn't happening!

Time to play football with the seagulls!

almost got him!

Mercy with the pier.  Love this one!

And, once again we went to the Crab Shack!

Ice skating

Look out!  She's on skates!  Ready to try it out... 

Mercy tried ice skating a year ago, but didn't like it much.  I think she was fearful and only skated around the rink twice.  She was very eager to give it a try this time.  She was also very glad to have her Aunt Caroline to help her along.

She was a little unsteady at first and did fall a few times.

 

Caroline stayed close-by!

 

Go girl!  She has a smile on her face!

Aedan

Aedan with the class pet, Simon.

Josiah

 

By the end of our time skating, Mercy picked up her pace a little.

 

Sweet girl!

Above is a quick little video.  It's pretty early on in Mercy's skating adventures!
