Happy thing #12

Today was an incredibly busy day and I've been on my feet since 9:00 a.m. I didn't get a picture taken, so I'm going to share with you one of my happiest of happy things.

This is the beach on Siesta Key. At sunset. With birds.

This is one of my favorite places in the world. We go every few years, and I can't wait to go back.

Just the fact that is exists makes me happy.

If you've missed me...

It's because I am on vacation with my family.




And this is a funny group. It could certainly be a movie. There are 32 of us. It's amazing.

Coming home

In the morning, I'll be getting on a plane and heading back to cold and frozen Indiana. My wonderful sister-in-law will be getting me from the airport in Indy and my family will be heading down that evening to get me.

It's been a really great, relaxing trip. I have have been horribly spoiled and am feeling so much better. I am looking forward to getting home to my family, but a trip like this again in the future is certainly not out of the question!

This is me with my Wicked at the Sandbar on Anna Maria Island.
This was taken at Siesta Key Beach on Wednesday morning. It was really foggy. About ten minutes after we took this picture the fog started to burn off and it was gorgeous. I'm not dressed like this because of the temperature. I'm trying to avoid further sunburn.
This is my mom and I at Siesta Key Beach this morning.It was only on the 50's this morning--but it was still beautiful--so we just took a quick walk and got a few pictures.
