St Pete Trip (pics and text messed up - sorry!)

Saturday, we went to St. Pete to see our good friends Gracyn and Brooke. Such fun as usual! We started at the AMAZING St. Pete farmers market where they have tons of food vendors, fresh fruits and veggies and live music....this old lady was rocking and rolling to the live band. Such joy for life! It made me smile...so I took a pic. :) The kids copping a squat at the market for a snack Then we went to Picasso Pottery T painted his own ceramic "mural" as usual And we did his annual hand/footprint for his Wall of Fame at home! This is T's finished masterpiece (pre-firing obviously) And THIS was all the brushes the kids used...T told me before that "I am gonna use every brush and then I will be done." And he did! :) Brooke was so sweet and got T a bday cake! And it was yummo! T blowing out his four candles. Good practice for the big day in 19 days... T's first boatride A view of St. Pete skyline from the water T on the boat T and G playing on boat My sweet sailor A dolphin who swam right next to the boat....he kept jumping out of the air but my camera was not quick enough to catch it. So cool! Bird Island (just for you, sis!) They claim there are over 1800 birs nests on this one tiny island. A pelican chillin on Bird Island Captain Taylor! He thought driving the boat was WAYYYYy cool! He now told me he wants a boat of his own. Stay in school, dude! And now, I leave you with our hilarious automated booth pics from the Pier....it felt like a clown car....we could barely stop laughing!

Wow! That really sounded like fun. Love the boat ride plus the farmer's market had to be fun.

Maybe T can be a river boat pilot - his generation's Mark Twain?

Love it! Love Tay!
We do hand prints too but they are different -- might need to make a few tiles with Deck!!! Thanks for the idea!
