I found a wonderful way to boost your antioxidants during this dreadful flu season. Bordering on being paranoid, I am determined NOT to get sick this year... especially with the stomach flu. There is nothing worse in my opinion!!! So, in my attempt to keep my family well I am drinking the most delicious tea (along w/ tons of Vitamin C).
Green Tea with Mango
Pick up a box of Green Tea with Mango next time you're at the store. Just the regular individual tea bags is what I've been using. If they have caffeine free, that would be best, but I love my caffeine :)
Here is the recipe:
Pour one cup of nearly boiling water over 6 tea bags and let steep for 10 minutes.
Add desired sugar (if needed... I use about 3T) and stir it into the hot water.
Once steeping is done, add 3 cups of cold water.
Heaven will be sitting down with your feet up in absolute quiet sipping on some iced tea while your body restores itself and builds a bug defense. Enjoy!

Brandt's One Year Photos
I can't remember if I posted these pictures or not, but since we just got two more, here they are again! We took Brandt's one year photos at Coral Cove Beach and he was (as usual) delighted to be near the water!

Riverbend Adventures
We enjoyed our MLK day off work (for Rick anyway) and headed out to Riverbend for some much anticipated biking on our new bikes. 15 Miles of beautiful trails in the heart of the Loxahatchee River wilderness proved to be a refreshing break from the 'noise' of daily life. Brandt loved seeing horses, birds, deer and other wildlife as he rode in his green chariot!
Go GATORS!!!
We had a great (LATE) night watching the FL Gators beat the Sooners to win the Championship Game... Brandt even learned the 'chomp chomp'!! Go Gators!

Family Photos
Here are some family photos we've taken over the past month or so. We were thrilled to get some of these taken at the beach where Rick proposed almost four years ago and get picts of our one year old. The last picture was the Howard Family Christmas Photo and yes, Maggie and Hannah are a part of the family.... all dogs are a part of their family!
