Beachin'

 A sunny day in Fl, so we headed to the beach! 

 Clouds in land, but the beach was sunny :)

 Some wind & sun - a good combination for a walk along the shore

Vsit from my sister!

 My sister and her daughter came to FL for a surprise visit for my mom!  They only stayed a few days - but it was still fun!

 She brought her Westie, Lily, with her.  Fortunately Bolts didn't mind her too much :)

Flash Back Friday - my first trip to Europe!

2002 - my first trip to Europe.  I went with my friend Peg to London!!  We had a great time even though the weather was a little chilly.

Shopping!

 Getting closer to buying an RV!  We're not sure if it will happen this winter or next spring or next fall yet.  It's fun shopping for sure!

Merry Christmas!!

We hope everyone has a magical day!!

Merry Christmas Eve!

 Snow!

 Bolts favorite - light and fluffy!

Some are still sailing!

 Our sailboat is put away for the winter, but we've seen a couple sailors still on the water.  These guys were spinnaker sailing under the Mt Hope bridge!  The air temps were in the 30's, brrr!  The water is still in the 50's though. 

Yumm!

 Some yummy food we've been enjoying lately!  Almond flour bread - it's pretty dense, but really good!

 My unhealthy coffee creamer - one that is only out for the holiday season - So good!

 We've found these superfood bowls to be so yummy - perfect snack with chips.  A little high on the sodium side as most packaged food is the only negative.

 Didn't get enough turkey at Thanksgiving  - so we tried these turkey breast tenderloins - Yum!!

Flash Back Friday - Chicago Marathon 1999

My second marathon - and one of my favorites!  I got to celebrate with my family - my parents, my brother & his family, and my sister & her family :)
