Grandpa Tom and Grandma Clark visit Jacksonville!

In the middle of February we had some special visitors come visit us in Florida! My parents came to visit us!!! We had so much fun showing them how we do life here in Jacksonville! When they first got here Grandma opened her suitcase and pulled out a Buzz Lightyear toy and Shaef was soo excited! A second later - he started searching her suitcase for Woody....he is a little spoiled! Grandpa and Grandma bought him a woody a few days later and continued to spoil him for the rest of the week.

We went for a walk on the beach and Shaef was in heaven.  There was a lady feeding the seagulls so there were tonz of birds everywhere!!

The lady gave Shaef a cracker to feed them and he found one bird he wanted to feed and chased him straight into the ocean!!
Shaef loves to explore things and see how they work - I love this picture....and would love to know what is going on in his head!
Here are my cute parents!!!
Checking out more shells!
We also were able to go to the Zoo!  Shaef was so happy to show Grandpa and Grandma all of his favorite animals.  Here they are standing in front of the elephants!
Here we are!!
Shaef was so happy to ride the animal carousel with Grandpa and Grandma!!
We also walked around St. Augustine.  We walked around the fort and St. George Street and then ate at a yummy pizza place!! Shaef loved wearing Grandpas hat and glasses!
The highlight of having them here was having them share in experiencing Heather's Baptism!!!  Here are all the girls!  I sure do love the women that we have met here!!
Here is Heather "glowing" before her baptism with her son Tripp.
A few other highlights of the trip were: eating at Bahama Breeze, Shaef and Grandpa looking for lizzards outside and Shaef saying "lizards sleeping", Grandpa and Shaef wrestling and jumping on the air mattress right before bed, Grandma and Shaef playing with zoo animals for hours, and many laughs!

Thanks Grandpa and Grandma for coming to visit us!!!!  We had so much fun spending time with them and feel so blessed to have such amazing family!!!
