More Florida Pictures

Thank you to Nancy for letting us stay in your place in Florida last week! We all had a really good time. Here are a few more pictures from our trip...

Out to dinner

Grandma Peg's new Car!


We went to an awesome Botanical Garden in Naples. It was really kid friendly and enjoyable for all ages!

Jack trying to Catch Butterflies

They had a little play house where Jack served Mommy tea and cookies.

Mommy's little helper, helping the garden staff...

 Relaxing!

It was a bit of a walk (40+ Acres), so Grandma Peg got a scooter to go around the place. Jack had to show her how to use it.

And we learned about the Birds....

And the Bees! (err... grasshoppers...)

One night we got Mexican Take-out from a place the specializes in their Hot Sauces. The boys came back with all the hot sauces the place offered, including the kind that you have to ask for special to get. You know, the kind that "real men" use. Well, needless to say, Will, Adam and Mike both lost about a gallon of sweat that night!

They cooled down with a bowl of Icecream with Jack.

Beach Days!

Daddy, where are you digging to?




Gramimi made Jack a Sea Turtle in the sand.

Pucker up Miss Sand Turtle!


The last day at the Beach was cool (only high 60's) and windy. That gave Mommy some cuddle time with her little boy!

One day we all packed in the car and drove up to Siesta Key to Visit Meema!

Grandma Peg and Meema hit it off well! They are now BOTH big fans of Mrs. Chens Chinese food!

The view from Meema's Condo! THANK YOU MEEMA! We all loved spending the day with you!

We went to an Animal Sanctuary in southern Naples one day. They had all sorts of animals that they had taken in because their owners couldn't take care of them. Iguanas, aligators, horses, pigs, goats, donkeys, ostrich, Tigers, Leoprds, Pumas, Tortises, just to name a few! We got a two hour guided tour of the place! We learned a lot. The Black Leopard thought that jack looked like an edible morsel!

We had a great time in Flordia! We hope to go back again soon!!! And remember, don't feed the gators!

Happy Halloween From FLORIDA!

Jack and his mommy and daddy were lucky enough to spend Halloween in Naples, FL with some wonderful family! 

We met Uncle Adam in Ft. Lauderdale on Friday night. Saturday we spent part of our day there and then drove over to Naples to meet up with Jack's Gramimi, Grandpa Wool, and Great Grandma Peg. 

We spent the morning in the pool. 


And then Jack dressed up in his Halloween Costume for a children's parade on 5th Ave in Old Naples. Jack was a cowboy and the hit of the town.

There were street performers out on the corners entertaining everyone, but....

 Jack was definitely the entertainment for most. He had more people taking his picture!






Enjoying time with Grandma Peg.


Then when we got home, the little cowboy got a second wind and became a little monster for Halloween!

And enjoyed time with him Daddy and Uncle Adam.

We hope to update you with some more pictures of our trip soon! Enjoy!
