Texas

So when we travel we honestly try to do all the things.  Since our flight to Texas was out of Tampa we reached out to Uncle Daniel and Aunt Laura to see if we could have lunch with them.  Side note....ALWAYS invest in your family.  

Laura couldn't make it, but Daniel, Emmy, and Ezra came to hang out with us and we really enjoyed the time. 

Next Stop Texas!

We got into Austin late and made it out to the farm.  Uncle Mike and Aunt Kathy own an awesome barn that has living quarters in it.  So fun especially because they have all the animals you could want.  19 chickens, 5 ducks, 3 dogs, 5 cats, bees, 2 turtles, 2 cats and.......

4 snakes!  Super friendly reptiles and the girls got into the whole holding fun right away.

Even I held Mordecai who quite literally fell asleep right on my warm little body.  We got all settled for the night and geared up for the next portion of our vacation!

Sunrise over seashells

The sunrises in Florida are spectacular!  The Fort Myer's light house is one of those great spots for shelling and watching the sunrise.  Grandma, Dad, and I woke the girls up early and drove them out to the point to watch the sunrise come up and do some final shelling.

As I played with capturing the rising sun I was so amazed at how the sphere of the earth comes out.  Its just so beautiful.

After the sun came up, we found ourselves some wee little starfish swimming in the waves.  I love how curious and willing to discover things my girls are.

The morning was amazing and even Lily kept telling me, "Mom, I am so glad you woke us up."

Florida is always such a wonderful adventure for us filled with a lot of joy, a lot of love, and a lot of memories.

Its a peaceful place and one we truly look forward to finding ourselves in.
