We (Tigger & Boo) enjoyed our last day/evening in Jacksonville by walking down memory lane. We visited the coffee shop we frequented, long before the new owners took over and it became known as Lillie's Coffee Bar. This was definitely one of our favorite date...
Florida 2015
Walter Jones Historical Park
We accidentally found this gem just 7 min from our house one day. It quickly became our favorite park for the remainder of our time in Jacksonville. It's a beautiful park to walk around, feel the breeze of the St. Johns River, do some fishing on the dock, or enjoy...
San Marco
We enjoyed an evening in San Marco. We first stopped by Landon Park to let the girls burn out some energy. We then stopped by High Tide Burrito Co. for dinner (another place we highly recommend!). Afterwards we walked around San Marco Square (we again unexpectedly ran...

Downtown Jacksonville
I heard from one of our friends that Downtown Jacksonville had transitioned into a more festive atmosphere during the day. On Good Friday, with school being out for all the girls, we decided to venture into downtown. We first enjoyed a craft time at the main library...

St. Augustine
Our Parry adventures began on New Year's Day 2015. We were starting to come out of the "newborn fog" (although the baby wasn't sleeping through the night yet), and we also realized that the countdown has begun...we were leaving Jacksonville in less than 5 months! So...
