\"sand<\/a><\/p>\n

I feel like its always a shellucky day when I see a SAND DOLLAR on the beach.<\/p>\n

\"beachcombing<\/a><\/p>\n

I saw quite a few cutie shellooties finding lots of these beach bucks on our iLoveShelling adventure to Cayo Costa with Captiva Cruises<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Very shellucky to see not just a KEYHOLE SAND DOLLAR but an ARROWHEAD SAND DOLLAR as well!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And sweet teeny tiny baby SAND DOLLARS.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The water was so blue and clear, we even saw a live and healthy SEA STAR that survived some obvious damage but now regrowing two arms.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

At the surf’s edge, we were finding all sorts of mini shells. I saw a spot of orange come in with a small wave so I immediately grabbed at the foam and sand before it washed away…. Aha gotcha! I snagged this beautiful little HORSE CONCH…. Candy!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Mine was so little compared to Lilly’s HORSE CONCH…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Look at these beautiful shells! The SHARKS EYE is shellmongus, the dark color of her LIGHTNING WHELK is stunning and that butter yellow horsie- woweee.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I loved meeting so many cool families…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So cute, right?\u00a0The family and tattoo…\u00a0what an amazing work of sea-lovin’ art…. wowza!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And shellfies!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"shellabration<\/a><\/p>\n

Did you notice their tee shirts they made for their shellcation? hahaha They are cuties, clever and shellarious!!!! :) LOL<\/p>\n

\"sanibel<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And….. the Sanibel 4th of July parade was soooo much fun too. Dick and Mary (they helped glue shells on Shell Love Bug!) rode with us to cheer on the shellebration.<\/p>\n

\"beetle<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After the parade, the fun continued with a Shellanguage book signing<\/strong><\/a> and shellfies with Shell Love Bug<\/strong> <\/a>at Bailey’s General Store. Hope you’ve had a safe and happy week! :)<\/p>\n
