325.365.2013 Finding our Places

I love that at the new house, we are all discovering our new spaces. Where do I empty my pockets when I get home? Where does my open wine bottle get stored?

Pooch is finding the best sleep spaces. Away from the fire? Closer to the fire? Against the chair? In the open carpet space? Or where dad can’t find me?

324.365.2013 Always Waiting

The pooch didn’t like us leaving today for grocery shopping. But he does love to wait at the window for us. We even put his blanket there.

Otherwise, we had a fun day. Anne came over with Maggie so that the pups could play in the back. She brought quiche! Then after grocery shopping, we went to the dog park with M, B & B.

Now we’re watching TV by the fire.

322.365.2013 Last Day

Today was sad… A beautiful warm day driving around in the convertible realizing that we leave tomorrow. 😦 But we finally got to Sanibel and Captiva. Definitely worth the time!

First we started the day with some champagne.

Then we headed to Pinnocho’s for ice
cream. We heard from several that it was amazing… The Italian wedding cake was delicious!

The beach at the Lighthouse was fun for a walk and shells.

Dave enjoyed the drive as well…

And of course we came back to relax in the pool. I love it.

321.365.2013 Day Excursions

After a leisurely morning, we hopped in the car and headed of to Miromar Outlets because I had a hankering to shop. It was a gorgeous day for a drive with the top down!

We walked around for several hours at the Outlet and I feel like I did pretty good on controlling the spend… Except for a nice new piece of Tumi luggage. I’m so excited! Dave enjoyed feeding a pond of Koi fish that also had several turtles in it.

Then we headed down to Naples. Our friend Russ that is with us wanted to see it and it’s his birthday. So, we thought it’d be a great idea! The drive was amazing and we watched the sunset from the car.

We found a little Italian joint and had some delicious pizza. Yum.

Afterwards, we walked around 5th Ave that has a ton of shops and restaurants. And ice cream… Yes, ice cream.

Now I’m exhausted!
