The Howard's Three-Ring-Circus

Okay...it's been FOREVER since I last posted. Here are some pictures from Spring Break...March 21-27.

This year for spring break we wanted to do something different. We rented a house on the beach in Cape San Blas, Fl...just off the coast of Port St. Joe. We drove the RV down...which made the LONG ride down a lot easier. Although the weather wasn't the best...we had a nice time. We found an excellent restaurant, a local oyster bar, and LOTS of sea shells. I mostly enjoyed spending time with family. AND...I FINALLY got to meet my new nephew Brody! He's a good baby and I can't wait to see Rylee and him again in May. (They're planning a trip to Wisconsin.)

Pop-Pop and Dani
Dad and Ann came over for a couple of days. They brought their granddaughter, Braeli. The girls had fun playing. In the evenings, on a couple different nights, we played games. WE had some GREAT laughs!!!


Rub-A-Dub...3 girls in the tub!

Braeli was being silly with her ring-pop


Isn't Brody handsome? :o)


We went to a State Park for an afternoon. The kids found several crabs and lots of shells. We saw a few snakes and there was a sign posted to "beware of gators"...so we didn't venture out too far

We DID have one nice day on the beach. The guys did some fishing and even caught a few.

We took our dog, Millie, with us. She had fun chasing the sea gulls and the waves.
