So the Wente Family went camping at the beach this weekend. Well, it sounded like a good idea when we planned it a month ago and Brian was going to have the day off to pack and get us ready. Let’s just say Karen is not a camper and a few comfort items were left at home. But after all was said and done we actually had some fun. Especially Sirius! He thinks Fort Desoto Park Doggie Beach is the best place ever. He can’t wait to go camping again!

We looked around a bit and decided stuffed ones would do just fine. If you know Brooke you know that was wishful thinking on our part. The requests became less frequent but she continued asking for a pet turtle. Her persistence paid off, and today she finally became the proud owner of 2 little yellow belly slider turtles. A friend at school bought them for her son and he decided they weren’t any fun so we offered to “adopt” them. Brooke is excited as can be about her new pets. For now they are living in the bathroom for instant hand washing after any contact with them. And even I have to admit they are darn cute.

In a skirt and flip flops none-the-less!

In New Symrna Beach they allow driving on the beach. Which is great because we don't have to haul all our boards, coolers, and toys to the beach.
