more FL favorites!

Our friends Ben & Shar & kids were vacationing the same time that we were in FL.
We spent a few hours with them one afternoon.
(not intending to swim=no bathing suits along...but it was ok)

addalie was in her GLORY because
(even though they aren't really the same age)
Zoe is one of her "besties"!
(they are the same size though) ;)



Scott's favorite burger place (hole in the wall)
is conveniently located across the street from the condo that we stay in.

 
"daddy-kisses"

toes in the sand

wonder what she's thinking?

We went to Pinecraft one morning with Scott's parents & grandparents.
*YODERS for bfast
*visited the new produce store
*went to my mom's house & picked grapefruits.


Scott's gma


we even saw Annie!  i'm sure she would be thrilled that this picture is on my blog! ;)

the grapefruit blossoms smelled so sweet!

jyla seems to think that she is cool!

Scott & I also got to go to a Phillies Spring Training game.
Thank you Ken & Karen for watching our girls.
It was a wonderful break for us.
Afterwards we drove to the beach (Clearwater)
& had dinner at an authentic local restaurant.
We enjoyed fresh grouper sandwiches.

I think that this may have been one of my most favorite vacations ever!
The girls weren't angels...in fact they were difficult at times...
but it was ok because Scott & I were able to handle them together as a team more as opposed to at home when he's working more...
the weather was warm & we had lots of fun times together as a family.
We enjoyed a few delicious meals cooked by Scott's mom which was a nice alternative to eating out all of the time.  Everything was very low key....only doing things that we wanted to do...
& relaxing the rest of the time!

Looks like a fabulous vacation! Perfect combination of relaxation and things to do.

I was thinking about doing a photo session in the next few weeks since we've had a new addition. Adeline JUST turned 4, and Camille will be two in about 6 weeks, so it is a perfect time to get individual shots of the kids as well as some family pix. Are you interested?
