Drum Circle

Well, after years of planning, my stepmother finally managed for us to get our family portraits done! We took them in a park next to a little pond, on a fence, on a bridge yadda yadda yadda. It was nice, I'm sure the photographer got some great shots and I can't wait to see them! Anyway, we took Max to his third drum circle ever Sunday night. His first he slept through, his second we didn't get any pictures of, but we got some this third time! If anyone isn't sure what a drum circle is, let me fill you in. The drum circle is every Sunday night down on Siesta Beach. A bunch of people come out with their drums and play them. People (including little kids, so cute!) hula hoop in the middle, interpretive dance, belly dance, do glowsticks, all sorts of neat stuff. We try to go every Sunday night. We want to make it a tradition for Max because the people are just so damn nice out there and it's a really good time.

I love living by the beach. It's something I can give to Max that I didn't have. I mean, what kid DOESN'T want to live by the beach? It's free fun! I can't wait to take him in the water for the first time. Surely next summer will be a blast. With that being so far ahead, I've been turning my attentions to something equally as exciting and closer, the holiday season! Ah, my first Thanksgiving and Christmas as mama. Didn't think it would be this soon! Expect more picture posts than you can probably handle.
