FTF Winter Rally 2016...Can you find us???????



There's always time for fishing!

I'm guessing these two were the only ones filleting their fish at the campground that night!

Meanwhile, back in the rig....

This seriously happened!  Bodie wedged himself between the front seat and the couch - he climbed into the blanket bin and fell asleep!!!!!

This dog loves napping in the sunshine!

After the rally, we met friends at Clearwater Beach!  Gotta love a beach with a gigantic water slide!

My hubby loves me....He rented me a beach cabana so I wouldn't fry in the hot Florida sun!


Found this little gem, not far from the campground. Braden fished with two friends and Aaron and I hiked with Miss Christine and the other kids!

Twins!!!!
So thankful my friend Christine invited us along on this field trip!

Let's play in the dirt!

The Three Stooges!

The treasure hunting crew!

What a fun day!!!
Did you know????


Who knew?????

Learning adventures are always more fun with our friends!!!  So glad we could meet up again this year!!!

The boys with one of our favorite traveling families!!!

So much better than the zoo or Gatorland...We were able to enjoy the outdoors and see these fantastic creatures in their natural habitat!!! (They also have an amazing Visitor's Center...and it's all FREE!!!!)

On our way...

My friend Christine!

Looking for alligators....and Braden, of course, has his fishing pole..."just in case"

Everyone needs a hiking stick!

Children....in their natural habitat :-)

A friendly little sword fight!

Hahahahha





This picture DOES NOT do it justice...This was the largest alligator I have EVER seen!!!!



Buddies!
Must be LOVE...

We were able to visit the Weiner's while we were in Tampa...

It was like a mini vacation!!!

Bryan...meditating!

Braden was able to do some fishing off the dock!

They certainly have a little piece of paradise there in Cape Coral!!!!

Me and my favorite MIL!

Aaron and Pop-Pop!
Bodie's happy place!
