Our New Spot

We are finally getting somewhat settled at the new park. I have promised many of you pictures of the new spot and here they are. As many of you know, Shawn is happiest with a pole in his hand. The new park is perfect for him. This is what we see when we walk out our door. Shawn can finally get the fishing he has been craving while still spending time with us. I can't tell you how happy he has been this week. We are all loving it.






Jacee has even decided to get in the spirit of the outdoors. She and her Daddy gave me some Leslie time last night. As much as I love being a full time, stay at home Mommy, every now and then I need a break. After taking some time for a long shower without crying in the background, I came outside to find Jacee and Daddy fishing and watching nature. It was the most awesome sight to see the two of them spending this time together. Shawn would point out the ducks flying over, and Jacee would watch them and scream with delight.
Jacee watched the fish jump, the trees blowing in the wind, and just truly enjoyed her Daddy time. I never could have imagined how happy such a small moment could feel so huge and
important. As you can probably imagine, all the new experiences and excitement left our little girl a bit tired. It didn't take long for Jacee to drift off to sleepy town, leaving just enough time for Shawn and I to get ready for our next adventure. Dinner at Pirate's Landing. I will never get used to the idea of eating dinner on a dock overlooking the bay. It always puts a smile on my face when the hostess asks "inside or outside". I think Shawn now just expects the answer "outside please". Jacee enjoys it too. She gets to feel the wind in her hair and watch the waves come in. It is a beautiful scene. Once again, I forgot the camera.
Maybe one of these days I will learn to think ahead so you can all see the sights that we are so blessed to see on a daily basis. The next adventure that my loving husband has promised us is a dolphin watching excursion that is offered in Port Isabel. I can't wait!!! I will try to take the camera for that trip.
Well, Jacee has woken up from her nap so I will end this for now. I hope to see you all soon. Have a safe and good week.
We love and miss you all;-)
