More Florida Wildlife Pictures

I've been having a lot of fun with the camera Greg got me for Christmas. The best thing about Florida is all the wildlife shots I'm able to get. Here are a few I've taken with the new camera.
This one I got today..TOTAL luck. I was on my way to the dentist and I saw the Bald Eagle flying up to the pole. Thank goodness I had my camera in my car!

I ♥ this shot!!! Total luck shot!

Not the best picture of the Bald Eagle, but still cool.

My Sweet 16 Girl

Well, we now have an official 16 year old in the house! Jordan's birthday was March 25th. I think she had a pretty fun day. Went she got home from school we did gave her birthday presents to her, which mainly consisted of LOTS of art supplies. She also got some money (which is always good for teenagers) and I got her a new CTR ring. We took her to Outback for dinner, then she went to one of her friend's plays that she had tickets for. Her friends family took her out after the play as well, so all in all she had a fun day. Here's some pictures of her day along with one of her mini canvases she painted.

19 Years & Counting...

It will be our 19th wedding anniversary on January 18, 2010...January 18th is also the day Joseph & Emma Smith were married. (Just some trivia for ya) I can't believe how fast time seems to have gone by. We've gone through a lot both good & not so good. I'm very thankful for all I've been blessed with through the years. Thought I'd post a few pics through the times. Happy Anniversary Greg!! I ♥ you with all my heart!
