Daddy giving Lily a golf lesson

Lily has her own golf bag it holds a 3 wood, a 7 iron and a putter. If she stays with this sport, I think she will be really good at it. She is just so much fun. Always happy and smiling.

An evening at St Jerome's Fall Festival

Daddy and Lily are waiting in line so Lily could go on one of the rides. She has absolutely fearless, when it comes to going on any of the rides. She is such a funny bunny. She really liked this ride, it was a small roller coaster and she just laughed and thought wow, let's go a little faster.

This ride was the helicopter. Up and down she went, not only once but she wanted to have another go at it.
The Bear Affair was another fun ride for her, as you can see she had to be at least 36 inches tall, she just made it on the measuring stick. Thank goodnessCute, huh!!!!

A week-end with Sandy, Mike, Lily, Amity and Luke.

Anthony's Pizza is located in Ft Lauderdale check out their web site http://www.pizzajoints.com/United_States/FL/Fort_Lauderdale/Anthony
We all went to eat at Anthony's Pizza in Ft Lauderdale on Friday night.. Here are Amity, Sandy, (the birthday girl), Lily and Luke waiting for a table. The food was really delicious, we really enjoyed everything.

Backyard Wildlife

You have to look pretty close here, this is one of our smaller alligators, he comes up to our shoreline everyday and especially if we are cooking. Quite harmless at this size, however, I would not trust it when our dogs are out back, I watch them very closely, I always have my eye on the water if they go out back for a potty break. There is another one in the lake that is 3 times this size, not sure why they haven't pulled it out of here yet.
This is along our shoreline every day, I just love watching this bird, it's quite a fisherman. I thought I found this guy in my Sibley Guide to Birds, but then when I looked at it again, the neck was just not long enough. So, I have to keep searching and then I will upday this post.

Mike and Jim

Mike and Jim are just relaxing while we are waiting for Tonya to arrive. This restuarant was Irish themed and had so much stuff hanging from the ceiling that you couldn't take it all in. We watched many yachts go by in the river, some of them being towed and getting to their spot for the boat show that was this week-end in Ft Lauderdale. Mike had to move his boat during the week into his spot. It's a really fun and hectic week, the boat show, but once you have been there more than twice you really don't want to endure it again. There are so many people walking around, the food is expensive and the weather is really hot. So, I don't feel bad missing it this year.

Picture of us in front of the restuarant

Last Sunday and met up with Sandy and Mike. We had lunch at a really fun outside eatery along the New River on the Riverwalk. There we got to meet Luke for the first time and really enjoyed visiting with him. He is from South Africa and is a Motor Yacht Captain. He and Sandy are dating and they really do make a cute couple. Tonya, the one in blue is Luke's chief stewerdes. She and Sandy have been friends for a long time, we have not seen her in about 2 years and it was really great catching up. She just finished a race up in Pompano Beach, there, she ran, swam and rode a bike. She finished and said it was a great race.

NOT MUCH GOING ON.

There really is very little going on right now. I wish I could post some really cool things but sorry, I can't at the moment. Jim was really sick with the flu last week, thank goodness he is feeling better now. He didn't eat for 3 whole days, I can't imagine. Anyway, the bug is out of him and he is a happy camper.

We will now go and get our flu shots, something we have not done for 3 years. So, it's about time to get it done.

You can check out Belinda and Lily's blog and Karen's blog over on the right side, they always have neat things posted.

Until later.
