Florida Days 4 and 5: The Henry Family, and Florida Day 6: Home Again

Sorry it has taken me so long to post about the last few full days of our trip to Florida. I've been really busy. Anyway, on Saturday, May 24, we drove to a tiny island on the gulf side of Florida, called Pine Island. Not the big Pine Island on the southern side, but the tiny one near Weeki Wachee, in Spring Hill, Florida. Okay, anyway, we went to this island that had a beach and a playground and met up with some friends of ours that just moved to Florida last Fall. So, we spent the morning at the beach with the Henry family, well, at least part of the family. We had a lovely morning sitting on the beach, watching the kids, and talking. In fact, we talked so much that I forgot to take pictures. Then we went back to the hotel, took naps and then went swimming in the hotel pool and then had dinner.
The next day we drove up north again, this time to Lecanto, Florida to go to church with the Henrys. We then went to their house for lunch and stayed all afternoon. It was a great day, and again, I forgot to take pictures... :( Maybe next time I see them I will remember to take pictures of my really good friends. We left there, packed up and had dinner, and went to bed.

Then on Monday, May 26th, we woke up at 3:30am, got packed up and in the car by 4am, to get to the airport for our 6am flight. We landed at 8:30, got our stuff, fought with the cab driver, went grocery shopping, and were home at 10:30am. We then left the house at 11:30 to go to a little girl's birthday party. We left the party, went home and everyone had naps... We were exhausted, but it was a nice day... And we were glad to be home!

This picture reminds me of when we used to hide in the cupboards and scare mom by making the drawers move :)
