Jake - the soccer star!

Jake had his first soccer game last Saturday! He did fantastic considering he'd never played before and his team, for one reason or another, has only had one practice! He ran hard and kicked hard and ended up scoring a goal!!





Jake is the second blue shirt from the left in the picture below.



WAY to go JAKE!!

KABOOM!

So this is what I like to do in my spare time... dress up like an 18th century Spanish soilder and fire cannons!! That is me (in the picture below) lighting the cannon at the Castillo de San Marcos National Monument. There are a few dozen volunteers who participate in historic weapons demonstrations every weekend at the Fort. It is such a blast!!




On this particular Saturday, we had enough females to have an all-female cannon crew - the first in the history of the fort! (L to R) Jill, Me, Melinda and Erin

Winter Luau

More from our great neighbors...
Mitch and Kelli hosted a Winter Luau to celebrate Madison's birthday and John's birthday which were only a few days apart. So we all dressed in our 'tropical' best and came ready to limbo!! Of course, we're having a slight cold spell here in Florida so it ended up indoors!!
Greg, Mitch, Kelli and Cindy all ready to party!



The kids had a good time... of course they have a good time just about anywhere!


John and Cindy got friendly with the totem pole.


And then John got friendly with the poster...
Happy Birthday John!
