Hanging with the Dawsons at Geiger Key |
Surprise! Ethan likes the Keys |
After a healthy lunch, KJ is ready to go fishing |
Everyone loves shallow waters, fish + humans |
She hooks a ... parrotfish? |
Literally never heard of anyone catching a parrotfish with rod and reel |
More standard fare: cuda |
Time for a new adventure |
Annie's not sure about this, actually |
Shoutout to cousin Eliza |
Must be in the Keys |
New visitors! The Harpers are here |
And they are ready to party |
"Just head toward the water with all the fish" |
Maeve's first time in the Keys |
Ray fits right in |
Snorkeling the shallows |
Aunt Karen makes a nice find! |
Kristina and Maeve find conchs too |
Beautiful and fun to find, even though you can't keep them |
"Can we fish some more?" |
"I'll help you get a rod set up." |
"I can do it myself, Dad." |
Nice catch! |
Annie can also drive the boat by herself |
Heading toward Key West |
I think we're going the right direction |
This definitely looks like Key West |
Yep, confirmed |
Southernmost point |
Just a normal day in KW |
Annie is braver than we realized |
She gets a bird kiss! |
Buddies |
This is a friendly parrot |
Like, really friendly |
But why does he sit on people's heads?? |
First correct spelling of KJ's name! |
Coconut soccer |

Maybe more crazy |
