I hope that you all have enjoyed this beautiful Easter Sunday. He is risen! I wanted to end the month of March in sharing a few of my favorite photos from the month. Celebrated my favorite grandsons birthday. Conner is 18 now! Our beautiful Mallory Grace all decked out for the prom. The youngest grands (sisters) were flower girls in their uncle's wedding. The oldest one was in her element of dress up. The younger one, not so much. THAT HAIR BAND ITCHED HER HEAD she said! I purchased a new pair of wedges that I love. I am always skeptical about ordering shoes or clothing but read the reviews on Amazon and went for it. Love the color and the style. The youngest grand loves to take selfies and play with the filters. Marty colored Easter eggs. He always colors at least a dozen every year. He always says he's doing it for the grands but I know he does it because of the inner child in him! LOL! I went with the little ones to Disney on Ice and we had the best time. I think I enjo
I can't believe that it's a been a month since I posted nor that half of the year is gone! Mercy! Family vacation and playing catch-up along with the just the norm of life has surely taken priority but rightfully so. Right?
Our family spent a most wonderful vacation together as we made memories in Key Largo, Islamorada, Marathon and Key West. We rented a house in Marathon that would accommodate all 14 of us and we were quite pleased. We had our own private pool, dock, covered porch and balcony. We rented a boat and oh we enjoyed that so much with fishing and just riding. I have so many pictures that I wish I could share with you all but mercy, not enough time in the day. I did post on my Facebook page all of our pictures and just a few on Instagram. We went to so many different places and encountered many new sights and sounds along the way. The places that we dined not only had great food but beautiful surroundings. YES, I would love to go back one day but I will say this; "There is no place like home and no bed like mine".
(Pictures are not in any order)
Their visitor center had so many cute photo props. We probably snapped at least a dozen pictures there. LOL!
The property in which the house was on that we rented was surrounded by Banana trees. Too bad that I do not like banana's but my family sure got to enjoy the bountiful harvest. Oh, the Iguana's were everywhere! Sorta freaked me out at the beginning. I was a tad better by the end of our stay when several would be walking alongside the pool that I was sunbathing in! LOL!
We walked so much on this trip! The very first day on our trip Marty and I had walked 6.1 miles. My family walked many more miles than we did though I can assure you! They are YOUNGER! LOL!
We caught enough fish on our trip that we can have a nice fish fry before long at home.
Thanks for letting me share a little of our vacation with you! Marty and I decided to stay an extra day after our family left so we stayed over in lovely Palm Bay area and finished up our trip in Daytona. We sure made lots of memories.
Here's to a good time had by all!
"Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, for His steadfast love endures forever!" Psalm 107:1
Hugs and blessings, Cindy
What an amazing family vacation! I love bananas so I could have eaten your share. Lol. Did you use a special camera? Your photos are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThanks Margie. The girls and I used our cell phones and we shared our pictures with one another. I would have gladly given you all the bananas you wanted girl!
