Florida Part 3

First day reunited with my one true love! I don't know how people do long distance on the regular. It was pretty much the most non fun I have had. 

Tried to squeeze as many beach sessions as we could between work

I had an oral argument in Miami so we took it back to our old stomping grounds and stayed with some old friends 

It hurricaned upon us on our drive and we discovered the car we had had a leaky sun roof.

I just stared at him every single day 

I literally almost passed out on our walk to get this grub. Worth it. 

Flew out of Orlando so naturally made a stop at Disney on the way

ate a lot of things with not a lot of regrets. Danny scored a deep fried snickers which was honestly a dream come true for him

had some pizza picnics

Summer Florida nights are for baseball-- the people we stayed with in FL had another guy staying with him who plays in the minors, super fun to go watch him. 

Our very last sunset on the pier by our house

Florida Part 2

My mom and sisters + spouses + babies came out for some beach time. And beached it up we did, all day every day. One day we took a ferry out to Anclote island and saw lots of dolphins and found some cool shells. We spent most of our time at Honeymoon island where we saw like 10 manatees one day. Also hit up Ft. Desoto beach park and found glorious sand dollars and saw sting rays.

Ahh I was in baby heaven

Ren was kind enough to sensor this picture for me:

Seriously there are not happier cuter babes anywhere on earth.

Ft Desoto 

Manatees at Honeymoon island-- we could basically walk right up to them but its technically illegal to touch.

It took me and my mom at least 8 tries to take one picture together, I may write an entire blog about it. 

There was a pier a couple of blocks from the house i stayed at which afforded excellent sunset watching each evening:

I am pretty sure this is the only picture I have seen with me and my two sisters. Too bad I look like clueless Morgan. 

Florida Part 1

Florida was a good time-- if I wasn't busy working then I was at the beach and thus not making time for the blog. I'm not going to edit any of these iphone pics, but just wanted to share what FL was like. I spent the first few weeks by myself then had some lovely visitors later.

My summer office:

Spent most of my evenings here: 

What my morning commute looked like: 

 Got a bike while I was out there and found this primate sanctuary in my neighborhood:

Fell in love with Honeymoon Island and its cute swings, fab beaches, and free little library.

Basked in beach treasures on the daily:

My little bro got sent to Ft Myers one weekend so I drove down and we beached it up

This beauty walked up to me on the beach to tell me "happy flag day." 

Loved hitting up Clearwater beach. So crowded, but fun to see and meet people from all over the world. Wished I'd had my DSLR on this day- I thought the lighting looked so pretty on this lady. I also felt somewhat creepy taking her pic.

 Annnnd I did this by myself almost every night:

And the office, which I should have put at the beginning of the post but I'm most def not going to take the time to rearrange it. 

Part 2: hanging with the fam damily!
