Ok, here we are still pasty & white before we hit the beach...we have a little more color now, but still look like we came down from Ohio.








Cia is closing her eyes from the wind.



Ninah in mid-jump into Bebe's pool on day 1.

Eli hangin out on South Lido beach. He loved the sand.....drool & sand make a great combo.

Eli & Daddy at Selby garden....moments before he passed out for a while. Such a little lover boy.

The girls looking for the bald eagles (which we found) up in their nest that the have been coming to for 36 years.

I turned 33. Sweet.

Girls at Selby posing the same.

Eli Bath time! Soooo happy all the time.

All my girls and the boy.

Cia on the backyyard swing at Grandpa Johnsons house.

Catching a bit of light in Kirtland before we headed off to Florida.....yes, we have light on occasion.

Lastly, here is a little video of Eli in the bath making eyes at Ninah.

I love this......This is Cia at the Selby Gardens in Sarasota, FL. What a beautiful place! They have these great Banyan trees in the yard behind the original house. It started to get really windy and the kids got all excited....

I know.....I know....I know.....I have been sooooo bad about not updating the blog. Facebook is stealing away all my personal home PC time rather than the blog. But, since we are in Florida for a couple weeks, I should have plenty of time to update. 

We sent to Selby Gardens yesterday and had a beautiful time with the kids, it was much like the Cleveland Botanical gardens except that they focus primarily on Epiphytes and the grounds were given to Sarasota in the late 50's from the homeowners. 

I will transfer a couple of good pics & a video I got later this evening. We are loving the weather for now..... I see that there is snow on the ground again in Ohio, while I just finished a nice 9miler (run) and it was sunny, windy, & about 70. Anyhow, I'll update shortly.
