a weekend of celebration!

Hey there ... long time, no blog right? Life has been so busy lately ....













Hope you had a great weekend ... we spent ours with my family ... CELEBRATING my Mom's birthday (a little belated).


Mom & her gift bag ...


... and, as always, Buddy is right there to help her open her gifts (he LOVES presents and thinks they're all for him, so precious!)


As you can tell, he likes to be silly !!

We had some outdoor fun during the weekend too ... Sal and I took my parents' kayaks out for a spin at beautiful Indian Rock Beach (where the sand is SO soft and white!).


My Mom and I let Sal & my Dad bring the kayaks to the beach for launching ....
A couple of birds stopped by, apparently they wanted to go kayaking too!




We also had a relaxing picnik lunch at a park with this as our view -- complete with frolicking dolphins! --- a gorgeous day!

I even managed to get Aruba to look directly into the camera, that's so RARE !!! She and Buddy had tons of fun with "Grandma & Grandpa" !



We had buckets of rain during the drive home, but this was our reward when it let up ... a full-arch rainbow, stunning!

I'm still SO behind on some other events that I've meant to post here, way back from August, yikes! ... like our visit to St. Augustine, my Creative Escape Day 4, etc. Will get them up here soon!


Have a great week,
