It's Just Great

My mom and I drove down to Sarasota on Friday to join my aunts and Grandma to celebrate my Grammy's 81st birthday...

Going to the beach in February adds a whole different aspect to Florida. It's different, but in a lot of ways the same. You wake up to find the waves continually rolling in like they always have, the sun welcoming the day, the wind making the trees dance... it's all the same. The only difference is waking up and not knowing if you will wear a bathing suit or a sweatshirt down to the beach.
Now, this Georgia girl that has been stuck under a heap of clouds the past few weeks has been desperate for a peek at the sun. I lay there, basking in the sun, smothered in sunscreen, dreaming the day away, and enjoyed every second of the quiet. It's just great.

*pictures to come :)
