Scenes of Summer

It was a super low-key July 4th this year, but all five of us were together at home and got to see a pretty spectacular display over the water! 






A few days after the 4th Vivian left for a Catholic Youth Conference in Atlanta, so its was just the boys and Matt and I for the weekend. It was great to have some one on one time with them, even though I was still feeling pretty beat up from Covid.  I was slow moving, but it was worth it!
Camp Helen State Park...
I think this is my favorite spot in all of Florida



That's a manatee swimming right by the boys!

MANATEE!

Florida Farewell

Our last sunset in Florida didn't disappoint.  Honestly, it wasn't an emotional farewell though.  I always felt like our time in Florida was fleeting. As a family, we transitioned the kids in and out of the house over summers, and in and out again. In two short years we transitioned through different schools and jobs and friends. These last two years especially, I felt like a transient. Never quite settled.  Now, it's time to settle. I'd like to plant some roots, even if they aren't deep and forever at our next assignment. Like us, they just need to be strong for the season.  Eglin AFB, Florida  1 June 2023
