We arrived at our vacation home in the late evening of May 8.   The couple that came with us would be vacationing with us in Aruba then returning home on May 20 while we would be staying at our vacation home until May 29, returning home in the early morning hours of May 30.  We weren't flying out to Aruba until May 12 so took a little time to do some sight seeing.

One of our friends' kids works on the cruise ships and was docked at Port Canaveral so we met up with him in Cocoa Beach for lunch at Captain J's.  Cocoa Beach is well known for it's beautiful beach.  I took a quick walk down the pathway from Captain J's to take a few pictures then headed back up to enjoy a lovely lunch on the outdoor deck overlooking the beach.  It was a wonderful way to spend a couple of hours with good friends!

Blog Your Blessings Sunday - Discovering Home

We spent our last night at our old house on August 31^st then spent September 1^st and 14^th living between two houses.  Our new house was officially in our name on the 15^th and we flew out to our vacation home on the 19^th  where we stayed until October 6^th.  We are both exhausted even though the fall vacation was quite pleasant.  We had gorgeous sunshine and heat mixed with good company and a lot of fun.  As we packed on the Wednesday before flying out to 'home' I couldn't help but think we really weren't going home.  It's still a house not a home to us because we haven't been turned it into our home yet.  Yet in many ways it is going home.  It's where our friends and loved ones are so it is home.  We feel comfortable there.  It's our community, where we belong.  It is our home in the big picture now we are discovering our new house that will become our new home :)
