Florida Spring Break: Fort Myers Beach & Anna Maria

Image
Day 3 of our Spring Break adventure took us to Fort Myers Beach. We spent time in Fort Myers Beach last year in February for an adults only long weekend, but it wasn't as busy as spring break time in March! We spent almost an hour trying to find a place to park, after calming down & finding a spot, we decided to walk to part of the beach near our car instead of miles away near the fishing pier and shops.  We had a quiet spot that was perfect for the kids to play & spread out.  This is one of my favorite photos from the entire trip, it will be printed & framed! These are the moments that make it all worthwhile! We went for a long walk down the beach to the fishing pier & to find some lunch. Daddy ended up being the taxi for most of the walk. After our day at the beach, we headed back towards Sarasota to our hotel for the evening. We took a drive over to Longboat Key to watch the sunset & have fresh fish at the Dry Dock Grill . Day 4 started out qui...

Florida Spring Break: Madeira Beach & Sanibel

Image
We started our Florida spring break with an afternoon in Madeira Beach. My cousin & her family live near Tampa, Florida, so we decided to meet at the beach for a dolphin cruise & dinner! It was such a gorgeous day- 85 degrees & sunny felt incredible to us Wisconsinites!  John's Pass is a shopping area on Madeira Beach with many fishing, dolphin & jet ski tours.  The kids loved watching all the dolphins come right up next to the boat.  We had dinner at one of my cousin's favorite places for fresh fish - Mid Peninsula Seafood . It was a very small little place with a tiki bar atmosphere. I had the grouper and the shrimp scampi, both dishes tasted incredible!!! Day 2 of our spring break brought us to Sanibel & Captiva Islands. Our first stop was for a delicious lunch & homemade key lime pie at the Key Lime Bistro ! Bowman's Beach on Sanibel Island was our relaxing spot for the afternoon. We laid on the beach, played in the sand & our kids enjoyed...

Hedbanz as a family on Sunday morning before church together. We hadn't played a game together in a long time and they loved every minute. We laughed and laughed.
