petting zoo.

Maybe they aren't for us. Not even sure what type of animal this poor thing is but it had a long tongue. Thanks for convincing us to go to the pet a' pet farm Meg & Ryan :)

first ball game.

Colin enjoyed his first ball game over the weekend! Colin doesn't quite understand the game or what those people were doing out there... toddlers do not sit still (only when there is ice cream).

Captiva Island 2011

We returned to Captiva Island "Surfcomber" this year. A lot has changed in two years. We didn't make it to 2 AM every night this time around as a certain little one kept most of our time well occupied :)

Vacationing consisted of:

1)Lots of floating on rafts keeping Colin occupied yelling "yay" ALL DAY.

2)Playing in the ocean with Colin

3)Spotting my favorite... turtles!

4)Crab Racing :)

5) Ocean pictures

6)Watching "doggies" on you tube. Colin missed Tucker so much.. so cute :)

7) Rafting in the ocean with no waves

8) Eating popsicles naked

not pictured: going through a handle of rum a day, sitting out on the porch after Colin went down for the night, watching ufo's (according to Justin) over the ocean, eating lots of seafood, going to Mucky Ducks,taking professional photos on the beach and celebrating time with family. Thank you mom and dad for a great vacation!

31 years.

2010 was a tad busy with Colin and Meg and Ryan getting married. We like to do it all at once around here ;)- We weren't able to celebrate mom and dads 30th anniversary last year so Meghan came up with this plan to steal all the albums from the house and we went through and narrowed the pictures down. It's nice to have it all in one place to look through. Time consuming yes and I wanted to murder my sister for coming up with an idea of course I couldnt say no to. We played this for them on vacation.

High School sweethearts 31 years later. We love you both. The last song I would say sums up it quite nicely but dad wanted to stop at two :)- And yes it's long because as you might imagine this family has a million pictures....

unplugging.

We are returning to Captiva island for some relaxation! Thanks to Will for house and dogsitting :) Off for some much needed vitamin D so says my doctor...
