Florida Photo Overload

 

So it’s been a busy few weeks since we’ve been home from our family friendly vacation in Florida.  A good kind of busy.  We sold our home and moved and are attempting at settling in.  Today was my first attempt at doing some baking as the freezer is really lacking in breakfasts…….and many other goodies I tend to keep on hand for our family of 6.  It will slowly get filled.  I’m loving the big new island in the center of my kitchen to work with!

Anyways I had promised more photos of days on our Florida trip.  So here they are!

Pool Happiness!  Although I was a little nervous having a pool with our almost 2 year old it was loads of fun!  Hours were spent in it.  Diving lessons, splashing lessons, pretend swimming lessons, soaking up the rays etc. All in the pool!

What’s a vacation without pulling out my camera for some enjoyable fun.  Seriously he’s the cutest isn’t he???  His 2 year photo shoot……….can’t wait to make some of these big to hand out and put on my wall! Oh and he was all game in allowing me to do these photos.  1st 2 year old to allow me to do this without hesitation.

This was our trip out to Egmont Island.  I told you I had more photos on my camera as I said on this blogpost.

The above photo is a big shipping boat and we watched this amazing dolphin show that was happening right alongside it.  These 3 dolphins were having a great time jumping the big wake by the boat.  And we had a great time watching it on the boat that we were on as seen in the above photos.

The photos above are part of the exploration on Egmont Island.

And just around the bend was a little snorkeling.  D took our oldest out on her first snorkel trip.  Apparently she was a natural! Too bad they missed out on the puffer fish that someone saw a little after they came back aboard.

Anyways that is the summary of photos of the trip! 

Off to making new memories on the adventure in our new home.

A little bubbly

This was the very first night that I officially slept well.  Finally transitioned over to the Dutch time zone.... Started the day with by filling the stomach with a good Dutch style breakfast.  If you're not Dutch could you guess what it is? With full stomachs we headed out for the day.  It was a rather frightening start down the skinny Dutch little road.  It barely can handle a bike and a car passing each other.  So to our surprise a massive semi truck was barreling down the road.  We pulled over in a pullout but  became trapped between a large truck and the canal. That canal was not looking too pretty for a swim.... Glad we didn't end up going for that swim and the we had no extra rental car bills to pay as the truck nearly missed the sideview mirror.  After safely arriving to the park n' ride we caught the bus.  This is a fantastic system if you're in Holland!  It cost 5 Euro to park the car and ride the bus for up to 5 people! ...

Trips and treasures

A little while ago I put the link back up on my social media page from a blog about Mother's Day.  Although I get very emotional about the day and the upcoming to the day with my precious Mom being in heaven, I do remember that I have the honour of celebrating motherhood and celebrating with other mothers in my life.  I know it can be a difficult day for many in different ways.   My one little guy who hangs out with me a lot gave me a special treat when I was down....how can you not resist his smile, with a card, cup of water and an apple all delivered with that big smile and even bigger heart. Shortly after that day I was given the privilege of going on a much desired field trip with my daughter.  If you know me at all, or even through this blog you know how much I desire the ocean and the wonders of it.  This trip to Salt Spring Islands did not fail me or my wonder of our wonderful creator.  We have so much more to experience from the ocean..... ...

2021

 Turned the calendar to 2021 a while ago and just have not sat down behind the computer to type away in a while.  I just had those summer 2020 blog posts waiting to be completed.  At last that goal was accomplished and I feel like the rest of 2020 went awash......I made a video to summarize our year and felt like that was good enough to complete the year.   I won't say our 2021 had the most marvellous start.  Our family was in isolation and I can't remember what day it was of 24 days being inside our home that we rolled the new year in.  However we were loved upon by many family members and friends over the time of being indoors.  Also what better time in the world to be "stuck" at home as you can get your grocery deliveries and any other shopping done and delivered all within 24 hours.  We did not suffer.  We may have been a little stir crazy at points, but we made the best of it! Building forts hasn't happened in a long time in our house, b...
