Take a look around

Last Monday, Brandon had the day off, so we decided to explore Florida. The sun was shining and the wind was blowing as we headed off to Flager Beach to spend a day of bike sight seeing. We rode through the cute beach town and then off to the tallest lighthouse in all of Florida, the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse. We climbed all 203 steps to the breathtaking view up top.

Following our exercise, we needed some good Florida seaside grub to fill us up. We went to this fun, scenic and local restaurant called Boondocks. The only vegetarian item on the menu was alfredo pasta, I wasn't feeling that so I ventured out and ate fish (a once in a lifetime miracle). I had a Basa blackened, garlic-seared sandwich. It was so delicious, and the greatest thing about it all was it didn't taste like fish. Not one bit, or I wouldn't have eaten it.

Yea for the day off!

I simply remember my favorite things!

Eamon has been so funny this week. He found a new love. MARKERS! As soon as he sees them they are in his hands and never letting go. He showers with them, gets dressed with them, sleeps with them, takes them shopping, in the stroller and all around the house.

Just yesterday, I was feeding him breakfast when he kept on bending down reaching and I thought he wanted to get out, I took him out and sure enough there was a marker right under the table.

It is so funny I don't know what it is, but all I know is they are his buddies.

My recent addictions!

So I have been going crazy doing lots of different crafts, or should I say thinking of wanting to do lots of different crafts.

My amazing sister, made me some beautiful crocheted headbands last year, and I decided I wanted to make them. I then thought well now that I can make them why not try a beanie, if I try a beanie why not try a scarf, if I try a scarf why not try a sweater, if a try a sweater why not try some valentine heart coasters. Anways, you probably get the idea by now.

So for those of you wanting to create some amazing decorations for your face or house, look no more because these websites are so fun to look at.

And believe me it's addicting so beware.

So stunning!

I can't believe how fast the time has flown by as Thanksgiving, Christmas and the new year came and went. I have looked back at my not so very good blogging skills and decided that my new blog will consist of a highlight of the week. I am way behind to blog about things of the past so I will start fresh.

We had a wonderful Christmas with all of my family and enjoyed good food, laughter and fun. One thing in particular that we did was get family pictures with the whole clan. I think the pictures turned out great.

So here is the highlight of the week!
