Florida Trip - Day 1

As many of you know, Steve has been traveling a lot lately with work which has left me at home with the girls. Thanks to this as well as a couple of feet of snow and temps in the teens, I decided to take the girls and head to Florida for a couple of days. Steve's parents & his grandma decided to be snowbirds this winter and are vacationing in Ft. Myers Beach, Florida for 6 weeks so we decided to come down for a visit. :-)

Although still a little cool at times...mid to high 60's...the weather has been great and is a wonderful change from what we're use to this time of year. The girls did wonderfully on the flight down and Sarah has been having a ball playing in the sand and picking up sea shells. She's been up every morning before 7am because she's so excited to go walking on the beach with her Grandpa. They've gone each day and have come back with some pretty cool finds! She's also desperately trying to go swimming, but we're also desperately trying to distract her since it's just not THAT warm. :-)

Below are a few pictures from our first day on the beach. Enjoy!
