fun in the sun

We went to the beach yesterday. Green Key isn't the prettiest beach, but it's the closest to the house and has a playground to boot. Riley and Shelby went with me, Kenzie, Maddie, and Carol. Riley and I spent part of our time looking for shells and found slugs instead... see how interesting the shells are?
after a short hike, through the bird trail, this is what we saw...

Having fun on the tire swing...
Riley loved the zip line that was at the playground. She had a small blister on her hand after playing on it so much!

Wow that's a fast slide. I was trying to get a pic of Shelby as she came down, but the camera delayed and this was what I ended up with.

Building a sand castle.


I'm looking Mom, what am I looking for?
These two had a blast pretending to be twins.


Being goofy is her favorite thing to do.





We had so much fun. The water isn't very deep where the deepest is, so we didn't have a lot to worry about with that, and we all had our buckets and had a water fight with them. It was all in all a great time! We love the time we have with Riley and Shelby every time they come to town. We hope soon to be able to go to their house too!

The importance of connections

 Many times, we don't take the opportunity in life to think about connections. Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart.

If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways.  Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends.

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
