Fort Caroline

We took the girls to Fort Caroline State Park this weekend. The weather was awesome; windy, in the 80's and low humidity! Fort Caroline is part of Jacksonville that the Spanish and the French battled over several times. It's beautiful and a great place to explore. Since we told the girls we were going to a park they kept asking, "Where are all the swings and slides?" Ha! Here are a few pictures of the nice morning we had together. 

Looking at the view

Addison

Walking down to the dock. This bridge was steeper than it looks in the photo. It made me a little nervous.

Emma in back, Addison closest to camera

Emma, me, Addison

Emma running down the hills of the fort. They both did this for while.

Follow the leader, Brian, Addison, Emma

"Daddy, run with us down the hill!"

Climbing on the cannon

Sliding down the rock hill, Emma ended up on her bottom, Addison still standing

Beautiful trees

  2. I was just thinking back to last summer when Addison had a broken leg. Aren't you glad the girls can run around free now?! I am thinking they are each developing their own "looks" now. I know they always have to you and Brian but I have a hard time telling them apart and I got it right in lots of these pics!
