The older kids drove down to join us today, and we headed over to Bahia Honda to do some snorkeling. We had a big rain storm all day yesterday so it was a bit chilly and the water was too cloudy to see anything. We had fun anyways. We were there when the sun was beginning to set. As glorious as I think the beach is, I think being there at sunrise and sunset makes it a million times more glorious.
The kids waded out in the water first and I could tell by their expressions that the water was cold. Once they got out there, they had fun. Here they are laughing at who knows what. It doesn't even matter what, because when I see my kids laughing-all is right with my world.
I am always fascinated by the birds at the beach. It's hard not to want to snap a million pictures of them!
I'm more fascinated by this though. This is what makes my heart sing. I love these people!
They are laughing again. This time I know what they are laughing at though.
Dad is doing his duck walk into the water. It's the simple things in life that make our day. What can I say? We are easily entertained in this family.
Aren't they beautiful? Even if they are using their dad as a source of entertainment, they are really beautiful!
Life is good! Living it in Sunny Florida!

Oh my gosh, we were right by you! We have just spent the week in Key Largo at the sister state park: John Pennekamp - also spent time snorkeling and suffered through the horrendous rain on Friday!
We drove up to Fort Myers today but maybe we'll meet you at the rally in Cape Canaveral next month?
Your blog is more up to date than mine, LOL, doing too much to get time to update it! We're: www.touringbrits.blogspot.com

Ali,
That is wild that you were right here! How long are you in Ft Myers? We are heading to Wauchula this coming week. And yes, we will be at the rally next month!
Off to peek at your blog.

Wish I was in Florida! Your beautiful pictures made me long for the beach and umm...warmer weather!:)
Krystal, we're here until next Sunday, then heading to St Pete's KOA for a week, then a week at Fort De Soto (can't wait to stay there, heard so many great things), then over to Cape Canaveral - we generally stay places a week and travel on the w/e's as Dave works during the week (and there's always that annoying school thing to do each day, LOL!).
Looking forward to meeting you, we're on site #63 at the rally.

Thanks Laur, they are processed mainly using Florabella's new actions and I can tell you-they are FABULOUS! I love reading about people who enjoy their families too, and feel the same way when I read your blog.
Bahia Honda State Park Is the best. From the beach area to the picnic area, it a beautiful place to visit and enjoy. Great blog. All the best.
A really nice blog here. I live in Sarasota, and have been visiting the Florida Keys since 1994. You can see my recommendations for places to visit and great places to eat on my blog. The photos here of Bahia Honda are excellent. All the best.
