A Little Preview

We just got back form a much MUCH needed vaca to Palm Beach, Florida. I am one of those people who after visiting somewhere obsessively wants to move there. There is something very romantic about daydreaming about dropping your life and picking up and starting anew somewhere else. I imagined what it would be like to have a sunny Christmas, palm trees in our yard, and swimming in January. I could maybe do it. Probably not but it's fun to imagine. Everything is a bit shinier in Florida. Hence the name 'Sunshine State". I get it.

We kept our vacation simple. I was worried that C being a 9 year old boy on the go go go would be bored or find our trip to be mediocre but it was the exact opposite. He must have said "thank you" a bajillion times and made mention that it was the "best vacation ever" a LOT. Mostly we just did the pool, the beach, the pool, the beach, on repeat and that was just fine by all of us. We took a little day trip to Lion County Safari which is crazy fun. Hendrix loved every minute of it and it a total beach baby.

more to come on this but here are a few pics...

  5. Glad you enjoyed my hometown (boca). But yeah, its hot hot hot...and the life there is expensive and snobby. I love that beach dearly, and highly recommend getting up at 7am and taking a lone beach walk, hunting for shells. We Floridians call it shelling. :)
