Family Day

In the beginning of October we had a much needed family day and went to Jupiter Lighthouse and the beach. It was about 1 1/2 hours away from home. It was a nice drive and getaway. I am still learning this blogging thing so the pictures are not in order. Keri I will need your help with that....LOL!! Anyway here are the kids at the beach in Jupiter at a place called Blowing Rocks. It was very pretty.

Zack and Mike walking back from the lighthouse. A precious moment!!!

Here is the very tight and close-spaced stairwell. There were 97 stairs climb!! Boy were we out of breath afterwards!! LOL!

Here is Mike sitting on a bench near the red brick walkway. He didn't go into the actual lighthouse because it was too tall and close-spaced. We had fun waving to him up from the top of the lighthouse. Although he was really freaking out with us way up so high and near the edge.
Here is Zack and Raven near one of the portholes of the lighthouse. It was a little freaky being up so high. I had to really hang on as I leaned back to snap this picture.
Here is the same picture but facing the view instead of the lighthouse. As you can see from their faces they were a little scared too. You can't see in the picture but they were clinging to me!!!!
The light fixture that still works even though very old!!

Inside the lighthouse, we were taking a break from the 97 stairs we had to climb!!

The sign says it all!!!! :)
