I was thrilled to travel with my new sister in-law Tissa King. Juli lives in St. Petersburg, Florida. It is such a neat area. So much to do. Shopping, tons of cool places to eat, breathtaking views and people watching! I would LOVE to move there. A wish of mine is to wake up and have a water view. Just think if you could see the beach, hear the waves, feel the sand between your toes whenever your little heart desired. I would wake up daily in a good mood? How could you not be happy? I'm not picky folks. That water view could be the lake and I would still happily sip my coffee of a morning, listen to all the birds, watch the wildlife and be perfectly content! Back to the Florida trip..... Juli took us to see some of the most beautiful and peaceful places.
Looks like a picture that comes with a new frame.
Yes, I totally asked this mom if I could take a pic of her
adorable and relaxed little guy.
We went to eat at Hula Bay Club in Tampa.
This was our view so you can imagine I was one HAPPY MOMMA!
We drove a little over an hour towards Sarasota where we spent a couple of days at the Siesta Key Beach. AMAZING! No joke! I had no idea the beach would be this gorgeous. I will say no beach vacation I've been on compares to this beach. I read online it was voted the best US beach with the whitest, cleanest, coolest sands. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. Check out the Sunshine Skyway Bride we had to take. It's so HIGH and kind of scary actually. They made it to where cruise ships can pass underneath it. If that would have taken place as we were on it, I might have passed out. Really cool views though. By the way every attempt I took to capture this bridge failed. I totally stole this off the web. You can tell it's signed by the photographer. The rest were taken by me.
I WIN! I did get this cool pic ALL by myself!
Here are a few shots from around her house ~ ENJOY
:) I know I did (:
A HUGE THANK YOU TO JULI FOR HAVING US~ I really enjoyed our visit. I know you are far from family right now but you have so much around you to use to continue creating yourself. Keep growing stronger in your faith. Keep reaching your personal goals you've set. Keep finding the little things in life that MAKE YOU HAPPY! I would use everything surrounding you to draw your happiness from and just LOOK at what all is around you at this moment in your life. I'm not saying it's always easy ~ I'm simply saying take it ALL in and appreciate where you are NOW. God would have never put that dream in your heart if he didn't want you to live it!
~ I LOVE YOU JULI ~
Come back!! Come back!! I miss you. Great pictures!!!!!
