Marco Island 2011

This year in Marco was especially special because Bill and I finally owned our own place...it's ours! Another reason is because it was the first year Anna really understood where she was, who she was with and how much fun she had. Although the weather was not great (a little on the cool side), we had a wonderful time. However, no one had more fun than Anna. She absolutely loved being with all of her cousins. I could tell how close she felt to them. She even started talking more and doing things so she could be just like them. Anna also really discovered her love for water and disdain for sand. She is a natural in the water - jumping off the side of the pool, diving under water and swimming with her floaties. On the otherhand, she was not a fan of sand or the beach. The only way we could even get her on to the beach was to put shoes and socks on her so her feet wouldn't touch the sand. As she put it, "sand yucky." I've posted some great pictures and a video of Anna and Billy swimming together. BTW...that large sand structure was built by the cousins as "their" sand castle. The adults later turned it into the perfect sitting area/bar for happy hour! :)
