Since my daughters both love "Finding Nemo", they also love sea turtles. It maybe that the character "Crush" is so loveable, or that they are just fascinating creatures, either way they love them. We decided to take them to a Marine Life Center in Juno Beach. Here they take sick or damaged sea turtles and rehabilate them. It is actually quite a remarkable place. They also go and look on the beach when it is nesting season to make sure that the little baby sea turtles have the best chance possible of survival. Here are some below.
Both girls loved this place. Everything was "look mamma turtles" or "look mamma Nemo". They had an aquariam with Nemo and Dory in it. They loved the babies and the bigger ones.
It was hard to not want to let them jump into the big pool. They just wanted to go swimming with the sea turtles you know. Of course they are probably not as nice as "Crush". It was such a great day though. We bought the girls little stuffed turtles. They love them so much. They have to put diapers on them and everything. Actually it's the little swimmer diapers that the turtles have to wear. I mean come on, we all now you can't go swimming without the little swimmer diapers.
This was after a day at the beach. As you can see Aislynn is getting darker. Of course we lather them up all day long, but it looks like her skin is a darker shade of Ivory. Bailey of course is just plain dark. They were so cute taking their baths together. I love bath time!!
This is our next door neighbors little girl. Her name is Star. They actually adopted her, and then unfortunately she was taken away as the biological father decided he wanted her. So, they get to get her on weekends sometimes. It's a tough situation. It makes me ache for them. They are such wonderful people and Star is such a beautiful little girl. She came over for a couple of hours and played with my girls. Bailey loved her. I think she thought she was like a dog. She waited on her hand and foot, and made sure she had plenty of toys all the time. She was such a good baby.

Hey Guys!
You are truly living an adventure down there. I just died at the picture of the girls -- my goodness are they different. They are just adorable! We're glad to see that Ernesto is such a wimpy storm - you guys may make it out of this season without problems. Thank heavens!
Katrina - my numbers for you are wrong. Email me your new digits and I'll call you this week. I have a new cell phone and minutes to burn!
Love to you all!
Heather
