Anniversary Trip To Florida

Jonathan and I both had vacation time scheduled for the 2nd week of October but we couldn't decide where to go for our anniversary. We had thought St. Louis, camping, Hot Springs, etc. But I got an email for an awesome deal to go back to Florida and so we decided to go!! Who decides to go to Florida in October on 9 days notice....um...us?! WE LOVE THE BEACH IN OCTOBER!!!! The weather was PERFECT!!! It was in the mid to high 80's and the water was not too cold. There weren't a lot of people there because it is the off (and hurricane) season which made it even better!


The day we checked in, we got upstairs and looked down and this was on the beach. We sat up and watched these people get married on the beach. We thought it was sweet and ironic that we were celebrating ours while they were starting theirs!


We wrote our names in the sand one afternoon!

He wasn't afraid of us at all! He hopped all around us looking for crabs.

Aww....relaxation.....


:)

This bird was hanging out too! Just looking for food.

Jonathan's anniversary present! He loved it!

We went fishing and the following pictures are out of order so here is our fishing trip......only backwards! lol

We only caught 1 of this kind.....

All our fish......

We caught 28 pounds of fish! They cleaned it for us and we got to bring it home. Mostly red and white snapper. We had 1 trigger fish and 1 pompano..sp?.... We caught some that we had to throw out. Not bad for a 6 hour fishing trip!!

Our boat!

This bird was waiting on us when we got back from fishing. Bet he knew that he was going to get to eat the part of the fish we didn't want?

On the boat on the way back to dry land!! I was ready.

Some of our catch.....

Jonathan showing off what we had caught in between stops.

I think this is the trigger fish....

This one was so tiny.

Jonathan was ready to go fishing....it was 8:00...

I thought this sailboat was beautiful!
