Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Sunday night we put in our requests to Santa! Well, we took a picture with Santa at least!
Santa and I even dressed like twinsies! ha!
It wasn’t easy to get there but we made it happen and I’m so glad we did. It was a fun night up at the club with lots of friends!
Merry Christmas!
We started Friday with a trip to Skillets, of course. We then hit up the beach.
That night we headed downtown to Campiellos! Yum!
Maxwell took down this breaded and sautéed 1 lb lobster tail with no problem!
The next day we went to see Wicked (so good!) and then watched some football! Roll Tide! Right before the game started, Maxwell called us outside because we had a visitor!!
Gary the Gator was back! He’s SO big and we got a close look at him this time – he’s got a mangled right arm and a nub for his left arm! Gary’s been in some fights!
It’s always fun to see Gary and we’re very thankful he can’t climb up a ladder!!
Sunday we sadly had to head back to Birmingham but are so glad we had such a good Thanksgiving in Naples! Thanks for everything GJ!!
Thanksgiving in Naples was a beautiful and sunny day! Keath and his crew made it over around noon and we feasted on GJ’s turkey and dressing, deviled eggs, sweet potatoes, broccoli salad, apple pie, pecan pie – there is simply nothing better and I can confirm it tastes even better at the beach! I even managed to set up my phone so we could get a group selfie. The kids and I tried it out first…
and then we got the whole gang! Hooray!
After our food settled and some (Robert) took a quick couch nap, we made it down to the beach for sunset.
Of course the boys threw the football…
and Samantha flipped around!
It was a perfect evening.
We then went back to the house for more pie! That’s how you do Thanksgiving!
Really thankful for these goofy turkeys today…
and everyday!
Happy Thanksgiving!
We had a fantastic Halloween! The weather was perfect, even if a little warm. All the kids went different directions with their friends but I did manage to still get a porch pic of all three together which was all I wanted!
Samantha was a “Boss Girl” with 3 of her friends. I’m not real sure what they were supposed to be but I do know they sure were cute!
Of course Samantha’s favorite part of the costume was the fake fingernails I let her get!
Spencer was a grandpa along with Henry and he made me laugh so hard in that wig!
Maxwell was Shedeur Sanders along with a huge group of his friends. He headed over to Crestline for the parade and I didn’t see him until I picked him up at 9:30! I did manage to still get lots of pics though. Hooray!
Samantha stayed around our neighborhood bopping from house to house with her friends collecting lots of candy!
Spencer stuck around our neighborhood and Colonial Hills.
Robert and I weren’t quite sure what to do with ourselves with no kids hanging onto us but we managed to make it juuuust fine!
Nailed this photo. ha!
Overall it was a great night – everyone stayed out of trouble and followed the rules and got LOTS of candy!
Happy Halloween!!
