Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Our last day in Naples was also Spencer’s 8th birthday!! Not too bad to get to spend your birthday in one of your very favorite places! We had brownies the night before – birthday boy’s request!
That morning GJ did it all up to celebrate him!
He got to pick breakfast at Skillets and lunch at Firehouse Subs. Love that kid!
The only bad thing about Spencer’s birthday? We had to leave Naples that evening to get back to Birmingham.
As always, we can’t wait to go back! When’s the next trip?!
The kids got out early for conferences last week and had eDay on Friday so we hopped on a plane Wednesday afternoon and headed to Naples! It was the first time for the kids to be in an airport since the pandemic but I wasn’t worried – they are expert mask wearers!
This crew was pretty darn happy to see GJ at the other end of the trip!!
I was pretty darn happy to see this belated birthday chocolate pie waiting for me! ha!
Thursday was Susu’s 98th birthday (wow!) and we got to zoom with her which was a treat.
Robert joined us on Thursday night and we had a great time – and didn’t do just a whole lot. The best! Well, we actually did a lot but not vacation things. GJ and Daddo have bought a new, smaller house so we helped move things over and get stuff set up. The kids enjoyed swimming in the new pool and learning to play pool!
We all got a good workout in moving beds, the slot machine, and the Peloton! We can do it!
We did make it to the beach and it was just about perfect. Can’t beat the beach in October!!
After spending the month of June at the beach without Robert, I think the boys were really happy to have him there to throw the football!
We love Naples!
Doesn’t get much better than this!
They are my forever Friday favorite! Make it a great weekend!
Friday! We celebrated birthdays and ate plenty of cake this week. Robert got to watch a baseball game on his birthday. I got to watch a flag football game. There was also a tackle football game and soccer practice mixed into the week. I don’t think either of us would want it to be any different!
On the night of my birthday I was telling Robert how I spent my day – running errands, a tennis lesson, a PTO meeting, and a flag football game. He made the comment that last year while working I would have killed for a day like that. SO TRUE. I’m so grateful for days like my birthday! Here’s to another year full of special days full of nothing special!
Make it a great weekend!
Happy Birthday to our favorite guy! He throws the balls. He fixes the computers. He puts away the dishes. He does the taxes. He tries to educate us on music. He makes us laugh pretty hard. Most importantly, he loves us well!!
He’s also still quite the stud!
Happy Birthday to the very best Dad around!! Cheers to another year!!!
We love you!!!
