Thanksgiving in Key West

This year we decided to go with Bonnie Mom and Grandpa to Key West for Thanksgiving. We were able to be in Key West for about a week and we had a really good time. On Thanksgiving, we spent the first part of the day at the beach. In the afternoon, Carl made Thanksgiving dinner. After seeing the beautiful sunset, we all ate dinner, which was delicious! On the other days that we were there, we had lots of fun going to see the boats in the harbor, feeding the fish, going to They Key West Toy Factory, riding a jet ski, snorkeling, going out to eat, etc. It was such a fun week!

We got got to Key West on Saturday night, Evan was very excited to go to the beach. The first thing he did was chase the seagulls!

It was a bit cold on our first night, but Evan got right in the ocean and had a ball! He really liked playing the waves!

It was warmer and sunnier on Sunday and we all went to the beach. Evan had fun playing in the water.

Carl helped Evan build a Star Wars X Wing on the beach.

Evan had fun being buried on the beach!

Carl and I had fun at beach too!

Evan enjoyed showing us the large tarpon at the harbor.

Evan liked feeding the fish at the harbor. (He also liked feeding the pigeons that came to eat the fish food!)

Carl and I liked watching the sunset from the pier at Higgs Beach.

We went to see the performers at Mallory Square. Evan really liked these guys! They did all sorts of tricks while juggling fire!

Carl took Evan to ride a jet ski for the first time. They both had SO much fun!

We liked going to The Harbor to see Light Up Key West. The nautical Christmas decorations were really cool. The best part of the night was seeing Santa! (The funniest part of Light Up Key West was that no one showed up to light the big Christmas tree, so some random guy without a shirt just plugged it in! It worked for us!)

Evan was thrilled to go snorkeling again! He and Carl had lots of fun. Evan liked seeing the barracuda.

I had fun with Evan at the beach. We liked playing in the ocean together.

We went to Smathers Beach one day. The sand was really deep there and Evan had fun getting totally buried in the sand!

We spotted this iguana on the way back from the beach. Evan really likes the iguanas in Key West!

Evan had lots of fun playing in the pool at Casa Marina with his daddy!

Evan had fun flying a kite all by himself for the first time!

There was a small carnival while we were in Key West. Evan loved all the rides, especially the roller coaster. (The pictures are blurry, but I wanted to include them because had so much fun on the roller coaster. He rode it about 10 times!)
