Hello, Summer.....Hello, Crawfish Boil!

We spent the afternoon at Riverside Park in Vero Beach, stuffing our faces with crawfish flown in straight from Louisiana! 

What a fabulous way to kick off Summer of 2011!

Today was a hot, fun-filled day of bounce house bliss and pizza! 
Fortunately, inbetween chasing my daughter at her friend's birthday party, I captured a few shots! 

Happy 4th, J!

Spring is Here!

Ah......these sweet lil' ones we've been waiting on for several weeks! 

 Total count still unknown, as the full batch has not all hatched!

...waiting on Discovery

Living on the Space Coast has many perks.  The Atlantic.  The Indian River.  The sunshine most days. 

One of the best experiences is seeing a shuttle launch from Kennedy Space Center. 

Unfortunately, my journey to the Cape for one of the final launches didn't get as far as I'd wanted, so my lil' munchkin and I pulled over at Satellite Beach to wait it out.  She summed it up best: "Mom, it was a great day at the beach!" Yes; yes it was.
