Boston

 

 

 

Fenway park Red Sox game.

 We moved to the Boston area in June and have loved exploring all of the historical sights and other experiences it has to offer!

Oh How We Will Miss Florida!

We will miss so many things about Florida...the sun, beach, friends, and the sweet little kids that I babysat, Ashlyn, Devyn and Coleson!

David's Anesthesia Graduation

Graduate

Porter had a memorable final year at Wiles Elementary.  His performance in "Party Rock" at the fifth grade talent show was epic...the crowd went wild for these boys!!

Coach P's patrollers went to Washington D.C. after school ended.  It was a short trip but they fit a lot of sight-seeing in and it was a great way to say goodbye to his Gainesville friends.

The McTureous family hosted a year end party for the 5th grade graduates.

Porter received many awards at his graduation in art, phys. ed., honor roll, and was one of the few to get the Presidential fitness award!  We were so proud! :)

Another highlight was his team winning first place in their football season!

Year End Kindergarten Fun at Wiles!

 

 

 

Marik had a great class!  It was fun to have our friend Nadia in his class!  We will miss them!

Pirates!

 

Autumn had a part in her school play "Pirates".  She did a great job playing Captain Blackbeard.

Swimming with Manatees!

 

 

 

Our good friend Mike gave us a groupon to swim with the manatees!  What an experience!  I must admit, that I was a little nervous swimming in the murky water looking for these gigantic, yet tame creatures.  They are friendly as well, and one came upon me suddenly, and it scared me a little, but Porter reassured me that all was well, and to just feel it's back and rub its belly. It was one of the coolest things that we have done as a family.  I was impressed at how unafraid the kids were!

UF Fishery Field Trip

Marik learned about so many kinds of fish today!

 

He was the first Kindergartener to catch one!

His buddy Branson was a little nervous about the fish flapping all around, so tough guy Marik saved the day!  He even threw it back in the water for him!

Autumn the Gymnast

 

 

Autumn has a knack for gymnastics, so she took a class for a few months!  She really excelled and enjoyed the class. I am sure we will have her take it up again!

Megacon 2012

 

 

Yes.  We came, we dressed up, we were among fellow nerds.
