Having Fun in the Florida Sun!

We having been spending our time split between the beach and the pool. When we are on the beach we have this great sun tent that Jason puts up so that the little one can play without being directly in the sun and if you look very closely, you will see a very comfortable, sleeping Rowen!





~After a day in the hot, Florida sun, there is nothing like a good game of cards!~

~Rowen loves her rubber ducky! It is one of her favorite toys .~


~Matt and Dad enjoying the waves~


~For dinner that night, we went to a great restaurant right on an inter coastal waterway. We ate right on the dock and right off of the dock, the manatees would come up for a drink of fresh water out of the fountain. It was so neat! A little further out, a dolphin put on a little show for us with amazing jumping skills!~


~Rowen, Jason, and I on the dock~

~We all enjoyed alligator as an appetizer; tastes like chicken!~


~Rowen and Daddy for a another day by the water!~

On Sunday, May 25th , Jason and I celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary! We were able to leave Rowen with Mom Mom and Pop Pop and enjoy an AMAZING seafood dinner! The restaurant was called Norwood's. Our waitress wrapped our leftovers in a foil and she shaped it like a crab! We affectionately called our crab "Norwood"! And Norwood was SO yummy!



Sweety, thank you for the best 6 years of my life! You have made our life a dream come true and I look forward to many, many more years to come. I love you more and more everyday!


~Yesterday we were able to take a drive to the beautiful city of Saint Augustine; the oldest city in the U.S. We had a wonderful time and Rowen enjoyed every minute of it!

The little one has been put to bed and Jason and I are settling in for a night of hot tea and watching movies~it doesn't get any better than this!

A Great Week!

Our week has been very busy and full of fun! As I said before, Jason's dad was able to come out for the week just in time for turkey season. They were very successful and Dad got his first turkey! We later had a very yummy feast consisting of a juicy fried tukey. The guys were also able to work on some of the wood work that needed finishing in the house, and thanks to Dad's help, it looks beautiful! We are so thankful that we were able to spend time with Dad and Matt. We had a wonderful week!
