Anna Maria Island: Day 2

We spent our second day on the island hanging out with some more family. My mom, sister, niece and nephew came over this morning and spent several hours with us. We hung out on the beach first and let the kids play on the beach. They had fun building sandcastles and swimming in the Gulf. We took them over to the hotel's pool after that and had a poolside picnic. Ben really needed a nap, so he and I laid down while everyone else enjoyed the beach some more. Papa Stone and Mrs. Pauline came to visit that afternoon, too. We all got showers and headed out to the Rod and Reel Pier restaurant. Everyone enjoyed some wonderful seafood and time together. After dinner, Jeremy, Ben, cousin Cindy, and I went venturing out for some ice cream. We found some at Joe's Eats & Sweets. I had funfetti cake batter ice cream with fudge in a waffle bowl. It was heavenly! After our dessert, we went out to the beach to wait for some fireworks. We had such a fun day!
