(hopefully) These are the last pictures from my cell phone camera! My sweet husband bought me a camera that I don't have to share with the business! So, here's a little of what I have left on the cell phone . . .
First day at the beautiful Englewood Beach cottage. I didn't spend much time out in the sun (hey, my prescription meds say "avoid sun exposure", okay??) But this was the lovely view from the shaded patio.

| Sweet Margaret Annie and her cherished sand dollar. I think she said she collected over 80 shark teeth from the beach! Margaret Anne-style archaeology! |
 |
| Adorable Nathaniel was happy inside the "donut" -- well, at least for a little while! |
 |
| One of the fun restaurants at the beach -- it was actually very good homestyle Italian food. |
 |
| Nathaniel can't wait -- toes are just as good! |
 |
| Last day -- a little relaxing after breakfast before packing up. |
 |
| Load up the vehicles, time to head home! For a beautiful shot of the family portrait right before this scene, and for many more wonderful pictures of our trip, go to the Stricklens' blog: http://thestricklenfamilyblog.blogspot.com/ |

| Back home, a sweet surprise after a morning yard-saling with the Stricklen women: Lunch together out at the Barn/Back Porch! Here, we visit the gift shop, and Molly loves this clear platter with a poinsettia. Nothing to get in the mood for the holidays like visiting the Barn! |
 |
| If you know Margaret Anne, you know she has been collecting fake food for her little play kitchen for years (she may be outgrowing it, since she didn't beg for this!) Here, she admires a realistic slice of German Chocolate cake! |
 |
| Okay, what in the world is this?? Well it's what is left of our very first muscadine crop!! This represents about half of this year's total crop! Well, the vines just got planted this year, so . . . whaddaya expect? They ARE delicious, BTW! |
 |
| Just added this to let Amanda know that we missed her while she was gone, and let her know that her cup is waiting for her. |

So, now to learn my new Sony camera and be a little more timely in posting new pictures! God has been good to us and our family, and we will not forget His faithfulness. Thank you, Lord. (Okay, I'll be exploring what has happened to Blogger since I last posted and see how to increase the font size on the captions!)
