Rally for Mitt…..

As we say in the ‘South’ when we believe in something or someone- We go ‘Whole Hog’

Mitt Romney came to ‘Naples’ so in support we attended his rally on 5th Ave…..

Crazy crowd- but my Dad endured!

If you look to the right of the guy in the green shirt- you can see ‘Mitt Romney’

Go Mom & Dad…. they were posing while a photographer from the New Yorker magazine took their picture!

 Romney leaving the building- Steve got this shot!

Until Tues. the 31st…we wait!

 

Make Your Vote Count…

We are counting down to our Florida Primary on Jan. 31st

My mom and I went out for Family Night this past Monday and posted signs around town!

Nothing holds my Mom back!

We had fun doing this- almost like Secret Santa- running through the bushes and laughing…

We look at all sides of a candidate- moral character inc.

 If you drive by our house- honk your horn!

Get involved and do your part! You can vote early too!

‘GO MITT’

 

34 years and counting…

For those of you who know us- our Anniversary rolls around each January and we travel to some dangerous place (Egypt last year) so this year we decided to stay close to home and went to Orlando! The evening of the 13th we spent at the temple enjoying this quiet time together. That night we stayed at the Wyndam Resort.

‘view from our window’

Sat. the 14th (our actual Anniv.) we went to the Kennedy Space center. The weather ended up being colder than we thought- temp. being as low as 37'

We learned alot…

  I realized how vast our universe is and how even more I appreciate this planet we live on!

We also stopped by Ron Jon Surf shop in Cocoa Beach- we used to live in Orlando from 1985-87 and would travel over 2 hours to get to this beach and then would make a stop at this store. Fun memory for the kids…

Happy 34 years to us :)

More Please?

Time for an Airboat Ride at Wooten’s in the Everglades…

  Then over to Shark Valley to see the ‘Gators’ and other wildlife. Nick is keeping his distance!

 Two for one deal?

If you look close (to the right) you can see the baby gator! You think they are cute now :)

Nick became an official ‘Jr. Ranger’

Here are the sweet ones at their G.pa’s office!

Until next time….

Day to Day….. we like it that way!

G.ma & Emily slip away for an early morning bike ride…. G.pa too

a little chilly (for us) but still beautiful at the Naples Beach!

  We call Phil the ‘Low Rider’

Hanging Out….

A favorite activity- feeding the birds, fish and turtles…

 

 

For the love of Fish…..

We all did our part to catch fish- on our 2nd trip out Phil caught the biggest ones which we decided were keepers!

Christmas + Fun = Family

 Secret Santa strikes again…..

Caroling to Carola’s brother and family

Christmas Day- Donna, Andrea & Carola

 Nick with his Dad & G.pa

She’s all grown up :)

My Double Blessings…

Having a place to go – is a home. Having someone to love- is a family…
