the eagle has landed

No eagle has landed. BUT I did take my first eagle shot.

Ha...I wish...it was more like this:

There is a chance it was a vulture but you can see the little white eagle head. There was also an eagle nest and eagle confirmations from Chris's dad which seems legit enough for me.

cupcake love love

There can never be too many cupcakes. Or birthdays- as long as you are under 10. Happy 6th birthday Kayla!

 

May her sweet cupcake obsession never fade.

rockin the park

We went to one of the downtown events today. Sophie was mad at us for not taking her somewhere she could run around and wouldn't even look at us on our way home. If she could only appreciate downtown Tampa she would be a much better dog ;)

full moon

The weather has cooled to a nice crisp 67 degrees and Tampa looks so peaceful at night- especially with the full moon. Aaahh the moon...

It is strange to think that the north east is being battered by Hurricane Sandy while we Floridians have such perfect weather.  Nonetheless, I hope everyone in the hurricane's path stays safe and dry!

spice up your life!

We went to St Pete today and all the fragrant smells pulled us into this spice shop. Highly recommended (although we have not actually TRIED the spices).

Although the choices were unlimited, we bought:

Cherry Creek Seafood Seasoning
Dill Dip Seasoning
Tikka Masala Seasoning

yum.

Formal animal introductions

Meet the dog: Sophie (also responds to Sopher)

And now the cat: The Cat (also goes by T.C.) ((his real name is Max))

Sophie tends to be a goofball. The Cat is much more sophisticated and kind of a snob. Both are my favorites though.
