HAPPY CHAOS

This is going to be one of those "I'm sorry I've been such a crummy blogger" entries. 

I apologize for not getting around to reading everyones posts and for the the lack of content over the next few days. We have a graduation, a birthday and the second oldest heading out to Arizona all in the same week... Plus working extra hours to pay for the extra expenses.

I'm grateful for the happy chaos but I miss my quiet days with time to think. Summer is definitely off to a busy start.

On a different note, kind of, I want to do a movie night with the kids/family/friends once a week over the school break, we started last weekend with Grease (a ritualistic chick flick if there ever was one). Any suggestions for movies? I'm partial to 70's flicks  but I'm open all ideas. Except for scary movies, I save those for the early fall. 

Happy Wednesday, friends!

MONDAY

It goes by really fast, doesn't it? 

We're at the end of May and the end of the school year... For us, summer officially starts in 9 days- woo hoo! Swimming, sun tans, horseback riding, the zoo, the science center, the beach, kayaking, movies, the mall, the park, fire works, long lazy days, cook outs, etc, etc, etc! 

Everyday holds an adventure if you're open to it. :)

PS: Over the summer break I'm looking into Liv and I possibly volunteering with a group that integrates horses with special needs patients. I'm pretty psyched about this!!! 

What do you have planned?

LAZY DAY

It looks and feels like summer in Florida has arrived.

PS- I know you guys freak out over gators but they aren't as bad as they seem. No, you don't want to get too close and you definitely do not want to piss one off... Nor let your kids or pets near them (common sense). But if you respect them, they will respect you

In Florida alligators are a given. In fact there's an estimated 10,000 plus gators located in Lake Jessup alone (pictured above). 

It is what it is... They are amazing creatures. 

PS- If you want to see something really wild (literally and figuratively) check out this post from "Views From Our Kayak"... Luis and his wife got the dream shot that we all hope for when out on the water!
