Winter 2011 has been grim, but we have a secret weapon...



Remember this...?
Ugh.





Ahhhh!
Hello, Florida, old friend.





Turn that surly upside down -
I swear, we were all instantly transformed into more joyful people
the moment our toes hit the sand and surf.





Little FISH, showing off mad swimming skills.
Brought to you by Foss Swim School and
the above/beyond efforts of Teachers Allyson and Beth back in MN!!





Pool vs. Beach?
BOTH.





 Happiest 4yr old on the planet.





Beach style - as always, Helen working her look.
Shout out to our good friend Cari Lee for showing me
the wisdom of the long-sleeved rash guard.





We didn't actually have the entire beach to ourselves
 but ya really wouldn't know it from any of our pix.
Simply a little slice of heaven.




Sunset on our last night...back to the cold and snow.
However, we've been fortified for the final push.
See ya next year, Anna Maria Island!

Heather, I'm missing the pictures of Helen and you and Stew and Melissa and her family. How about some new ones? Your Uncle Butch
