I guess one of the crazy benefits that we've missed for years is having weekends to make plans. Time to have fun, time to do things as a family and just have...well, time.
Heading out to Sanibel Island to see some birds, see where Jenny works (Bailey's General Store), cruise around, soak up the rays and dip the toes in the water. We hit one of the beaches and saw some massive osprey nests. Not quite as imposing as Eagles but darn, those things look nasty.

| Dang that sucker was big.... |
Next we popped over to the beach to see the original light house on Sanibel beach. Not open for tours, not that there would be room, but still cool to see. Being that old, I'm sure it has stories and would give a haunting a big thumbs up. :)

| Someone forgot to change the bulb.... |
Both Amberlyn and Cody had different agendas on the beach. Cody was hard at work continuing his sea shell collection while Amberlyn was determined to build the perfect sand castle. Off we went and managed to accomplish both.
 |
| Yeah, like she wasn't born to live on the beach. |
 |
| Lost in thought....I bet it is something about Star Wars. |
We stopped to see Jenny's store and grab a bite to eat (Island Cow - yummy!!!). The kids got to see more of the island and we snagged another beach spot on the way before leaving the island. Different side of the island and more shells for Cody to grab. Amberlyn was all about soaking up the tan at that point.
At the end of the day, we had a fun and relaxing day with lots of fun things to see. All that being said, time to give everyone The Bird!
