Happy Valentine's Day

The day started off with pancakes topped

with chocolate and strawberry syrup. Yum!

We drove to Toys R Us so Isaac could download

something to a DS game through the WiFi connection

available in the store only.

Of course, we found a few other goodies while we were there.

Here are some of the cards from our HEART ART ATC trade from last week:

Mounts Botanical Gardens

Today we visited

Mounts Botanical Gardens in

West Palm Beach.

It had been awhile since our last visit and it is even more

beautiful than we remembered.

The weather was perfect and there were so many things in bloom

that it's hard to believe this is winter.

The natural maze has grown very tall but the kids commented

that it seems to be getting smaller to them!

The Palm Beach Zoo in the Winter

The White alligator at the Palm Beach Zoo almosts looks fake. We stayed and watched it for awhile just to make sure it moved. Oh, and Eric spotted some of it's poop, which proves beyond any doubt that it is real. It's only there for a limited time so we were lucky we got to see it!

There was quite a bit of chill in the air and it seemed that everywhere you looked there were iguanas soaking up the warmth of the sun.

We also saw Maya, the new baby jaguar. She was having such a good time playing with her mom.

We have been posing for pictures on these bronze tortoise statues for years. Even when we get too big to sit on them, we will never be too old for the zoo.
