Fort Myers Beach Top 10

Fort Myers Beach Top 10
10) A forecast with rain, usually means the inland or off shore is getting rain. In the 'off' chance it does rain, it's probably time to head in for a break from the sun!
9) Swimming in the pool never gets old.
8) If you are worried about what you look in a bikini, sit on the beach, watch the next couple to walk by and within a few minutes, you'll feel great about the way you look!
7) The sand is a natural playground!
6) You could possibly go an entire week without wearing shoes (or if you are Seth,not take a shower)!
5) Happy hour could last all day if you want!
4) It's so nice not having to do anything or be anywhere!
3) Daddy is home all day everyday on vacation!
2) Sunscreen becomes the new moisturizer.
1) Spending quality time playing, swimming, enjoying the beach, looking for shells, and hanging out with the family!

Beach vacations are grand because you really don't have a whole lot to do! And with busy lives at home with school, work, and so on, it is nice to have this time to relax. While I don't necessarily have to work (my work is my scrapbooking business and that's not even close to work), however, I do run a household of five people! So, even for me, it is nice to relax on vacation! Even though on this trip we are eating dinner in, which means cleaning up and doing dishes. Yet, should we go out, it would mean chasing Dane! It's all about choosing your battles! We are so fortunate to have a wonderful condo that even spending time inside is great! We are staying on a third floor unit (which the level only stinks during packing and unpacking), and our screened balcony is great to sip coffee, eat lunch or just enjoy the scenery! A few time this week Dane has napped outside in his stroller, which this has been nice because it's allowed me to stay outside longer! Myles and Elliott have been swimming fools, and today they were all swimming champions. Elliott is swimming longer distances without her swim bubble. Both kids are enjoying the time with Robbie. Oh and of course it is super fun when Uncle Ben or Daddy are swimming, throwing, and playing in the pool. Today the kids put in at least an eight hour day of swimming. It's amazing how well they play after using all their energy all day long! Tonight was a treat for the kids, Robbie got to sleep over. So they all three slept peacefully on the huge pull out sofa.
