sea finds

I'm really, really good at finding stuff in the ocean.

2 pairs of designer sunglasses speak for themselves :)
honest. i found ray bans and miu miu sunglasses BOTH in the ocean on separate occasions.

I've also found a star fish, loads of cool shells, sand dollars, sea urchin skeletons.... plastic bags, beer bottles you know.

My very favorite things are sea fans
now. you can't take sea fans from the ocean.... apparently they take years and years to grow.... but it's not my fault it one washes up on shore.
the best time to look for a sea fan is after a storm and rough waves,  they break off and come to shore looking for a new home on my shelf.

yesterday Amber is actually the one who spotted the sea fan & I'm so glad she did!  I love it!
and I have a HUGE new conch shell that is now my door stop.

happy snorkeling!

Thankful for a beach day

this past weekend was Grenada's Thanksgiving and Lee got 2 days off of school!!! 2!
he won't get any for American Thanksgiving :( so I'll be home watching the Macy's parade alone.

He studied Friday and Monday (his days off) and took a break for Saturday and Sunday!
It was a great two days together... even better than the break after midterms.
Saturday we went to the beach, went grocery shopping together (which is something I really love to do together, makes me miss when we were first married and went on grocery adventures at Kroger to get all the deals) came home and watched college football, had dinner and ice cream with candy bar cut up in like a blizzard, and watched a movie! 

I almost took this little guy home until he crawled out and got his goo all over my hand and I screamed!

skipping stones

and I found a perfect sea urchin skeleton snorkeling!

life is good.
