Florida... part one

Last week we made a LONG flight to Florida. Didn't get to our hotel in Panama City til 8:30 pm ... partly due to Garmin leading us in a few circles .. then zzzzzzzzzzz!!!

 But the next morning we were ready for a little adventure. We found a cute little cafe... Andy's Flower Power Cafe and Bakery...
 Then we set off on a Pirate cruise!!

 Here's Mike on the pirate ship.... please note that is NOT his purse!!! Ha!
 Me!... I am just so excited to be on the ocean!!
 OK.... look in the middle of the picture at the top... that is our pirate that sailed the ship... the pirates looked more like biker dudes... but they were very entertaining!


 This was a great place for kids... the pirate dudes entertained all the kids with tons of activities for two hours!

 This part was SO exciting... we saw dolphins... up close!!! So cool!!
 I found a pirate....
 ... and Mike found some treasure!!!
 After the pirate cruise we went to Pier Park. We could have spent all day there.
 Ha... spitting turtles!!!
 We discovered this... and now we are ADDICTED!!!! when we flew home we stopped at the one on Val Vista in Mesa... didn't know there was one so close to us... LOVE the burgers there!!!
 LOTS and lots of shops
 Hence the name... it was right by the pier and the beach.
 The sand in Florida is white and almost as fine as salt!
 Oh yeah... a vacation isn't a vacation without ICE CREAM!!!
Very fun day... now we are going to the REAL reason we went to Florida!!!! Stay tuned!!

bathroom...

Well... a LONG time ago our master bathroom looked like this. You walked in.. sink on the right... wall on the left... go through another door... potty on left and shower straight ahead... and then ya kinda back out.

So we got tired of that little layout and did THIS!!! Destruction!!!

SO.... for a couple years (yes really... actually more than a couple years) our bathroom stayed like this while we pursued other less costly home projects.
OK... it's TIME!!! finally last week.... more destruction!!!
Let the fun times begin!!



 SO... we are now in the middle of putting it all back together... but it is starting to shape up quite nicely. We still have a LOT more work to do so the final reveal will probably be in a few more weeks. Stay tuned! Just gotta LOVE home projects!!!

About Me

My photo
Hi there everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people have a little life story on their blogs. So, always wanting to keep up with the latest BLOG trends, I've decided to put on a little blurb about my life for anyone that's interested. BUT, so no one is bored or has heard it all, I've put MY LIFE in ORIGINAL story form... Once upon a time there was a brown eyed girl, born of goodly parents, who set out on a journey. She traveled for a very VERY long time, through desert, mountains and forests and along the way she brought with her 6 wonderful treasures. But, alas, there were dark times, battles and dragons along the way, but she kept on going, with her treasures giving her strength and direction. Then in the desert, she met a blue eyed handsome prince, who had also been on a long long journey, and he had 2 treasures. So as you might have already guessed the ending.... the brown eyed girl and the blue eyed prince along with their treasures and a bunch more treasures, lived very happily ever after! Life is GOOD! It's party time now!
