Hints about viewing pictures, slideshows, and video:
If the pictures are too small: Click on the picture to see a much larger version. Click the back button in your browser to return to the blog.
If you'd like the .jpg file for a picture, right click it and choose "Save Picture As..."
To see slideshows better: Click on the slideshow to "activate" it. Then click the plus to speed it up or the minus to slow it down. Hover over a picture to see the caption for that pic.
To play videos: Click the video to "activate" it and then click the "Play" button (the triangle). I like to pause it immediately and wait for the whole thing to buffer so I don't get blips while watching it.

Escape to Florida

In early March, we went to visit our friends, Carey, Vera and Laura Hobbs, who live in Orlando, Florida! While there, I took about 100 pics of dear Laura (who's about 18 months old) and a few pics of the rest of us! Here are a couple of our favorites from the trip!



Sean and Laura reading together. Just look at those adorable pigtails!!!










Our self portrait while visiting Sarasota. It was a little windy, but the sun felt wonderful for us poor Oregonians!




Lunch in Sarasota... CHEERS to Mojitos, Sangria and Virgin Mango Tangos! :-)










We definitely enjoyed some refreshing fun in the sun...













...but don't let him fool you. That water was NOT warm!!!


Overall, we had a fabulous time. Of course it was great to get a break from our Oregon winter, but our favorite part was just getting to spend time with wonderful friends! Thanks for being such awesome hosts, Carey, Vera and Laura. Can't wait until we see you again!!!
