Day 139 - Helpin' Out

Our church is gearing up for it's annual Yard Sale and this afternoon, we went over and spent some time helping prep the sale items.  I think it's a good lesson in Community Service to help out and so each kid was put to work!


Nothing like the satisfaction of a job well done!

Day 134 - Josh Vs. Calzone

We found a little gem of a restaurant tonight in the heart of West Palm, right next to the ocean.  Josh ordered a calzone, never realizing how large it really would be!  Needless to say, he didn't finish it!

Today, Josh and I toured this fantastic old home built in 1901 by Henry Flagler (investor in Standard Oil) as a wedding present for his wife.  We loved every minute of it and found it fascinating.  Amazing!
