These are a few of our memory pictures of Nathan & Vicki's visit to Naples. We had a great time with lots of activities and good food. You can tell by our looks that we all had a ball! The visit was over too soon but the memories will last always...

For those of you who would like to see our temporary home here in Naples, these pics are for you. The villa is furnished (not to our specifications), but it will do for the short time we will be here. the prettiest areas are the entrance and the patio. Every morning we can see the sun rise on the golf course. Palms and the flowers make it!

Dinner at Del Sordo's
















We were invited to the sweetest Italian family's home for dinner Saturday. Of course the food was delicious and the family is so welcoming. Here are a few of the friends and family that joined us. The picture in the kitchen is Imelda, James and Sandra(daughter). The other Italian couple are the Piscitellis.

shopping trip to Waterside
















Staci and I decided to go shopping at a real elegant center--Waterside Shops. Of course we had to go to Antropologie. Here are a few of my favorite things: the hammock, lucious bedspread and this neat "A" filled with rubber bands.

We had a fun time while "Grand-pa Les" took care of the kids...he was just waking up when we got home!

Each morning when we meet at the Kingdom Hall for service, the beautiful flowers are breath-taking. It starts the morning off with a bright, happy feeling....I love the variety of flora here in Naples.

Breakfast in Naples....


We are trying to personalize our temporary home and our first furniture purchase is this little bistro table. The owners of this villa had left their patio furniture and it was terrible (off to the trash it went) and now we have something cuter to eat breakfast on and enjoy the Florida air (rather humid)...we can watch golfers from our patio and we are collecting a few balls!

Here we are at a Florida "hoe-down". This party was at a beautiful banquet room in one of the Naples' subdivisions. We were two of the few real Texans attending and we didn't look the part! Oh, well it was lots of good food, dancing, and fun friends.
