Saturday

What a great day we had!

As soon as we could get everyone going, we headed to a wildlife reserve. 

It was breathtaking!

Gators!!

Then we packed up and headed to New Smtrna Beach

We had a huge area to ourselves thanks to mark and Denise's friend allowing us to access the beach from her house. 

Jellyfish

Cuties!

Nate loved sitting in the edge of the surf watching and thinking. 

Nice squiggle castle!

Crab

Then we rinsed off in a beachside shower, changed clothes beside the car so we could be at this amazing restaurant called The Garlic when they opened at 4. 

They don't take reservations and its very popular. Thankfully we were there when the doors opened. 

We miss you Marlowe!

I cannot tell you how yummy this place was! I went off paleo immediately when they brought out crusty bread with huge bulbs of garlic that you spread on the bread like butter.

They're famous for their chickens :-)

Best buds!

I'm so glad she always wanted to ride in Aunt Joys Van

Cousins are the best!
