There are Peacocks everywhere in
Longboat Key...we got a show as this
one was trying to impress his nearby lady!
We went to the Mote Aquarium

a friend had said that the best beach toy is a
dish pan and some kitchen toys....it was true!
Faith loved it spent most of her time in it!..
her little piece of the ocean

We got to take a family beach trip--
headed 547 miles south to...
Longboat Key, Florida (close to Sarasota)

the evenin' comes"
Our Family
"It's always better when we're together"
We got to stay in Brandon's Step-Grandma's
condo-- it was located on the Bay side--just a
walk across the street to the beach! One of the
most relaxing things about the stay was that they
have a memory foam mattress and awesome
sheets--incredibly soft and comfortable--I asked
her were she got them and she said Bed, Bath
and Beyond--- the next time we
buy sheets--these will be it-- "Eucalyptus Orgins
Jersey Knit Sheet Set"....Best Sheets Ever!!!
...it is a a little green dot way up in the sky
there are Manatees that live in the bay that like
to hang out right by the docks outside of our condo!
They told us that if you run the water hose into
the water-the manatees will come up to get a drink
and let you pet them!! We didn't get to pet them--
but, we got this close!! They are so sweet!
Brandon and Milla fishing
"give a man a fish; you have fed him for a day.
teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for
a lifetime." ~Chinese Proverb

humming "don't worry-about a thing-cause
every little thing is gonna be alright"

Me and the girls in Armand Circle....
the girls favorite spot for ice cream shops.
You wouldn't believe how many types of ice
cream have eggs in them--3 out of 5 shops
that we went to had eggs in their ice cream!
Glad we asked!!!
