Sunny Day Fun!

-Playing in the sand volleyball court making a "sand"man.
-Trip to the pool.
-Our first trip to the beach.





Loves Along the Way

We made a number of lovely pit stops to get here. I apologize now for the blurry pics ahead but it was all I got...

-We stopped at Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo, TX (its a real place for those who've heard the country song). Some guy buried Cadillacs on his farm and now people come and spray paint them. Don't let the sunshine deceive you...it was bitter COLD.
-We stayed with my sister, Kristy and her family in Georgia. It was GREAT!! We got to see their new digs and catch up with all the kids.
-We went to the American Girl Doll store in Georgia. My favorite doll growing up. Needless to say...it was a miracle that we walked out without buying something.
-We ate at Steak n Shake...my how we've missed delicious steakburgers and shakes.
-We visited with all of Jason's family in Texas but kicked ourselves after leaving because we took no pictures. We ate a yummy lunch there at Texas Roadhouse with his mom and sister (rather fitting we thought).






From Snowflakes to Sunshine

We hitched up the wagons and headed east. We traveled through a total of 9 states. We woke up Saturday morning to about 4 inches of snow (I briefly panicked) and we finished packing the truck and hit the road. We ran into plenty of rain and snow along the way but all in all we enjoyed the LONG journey together. Navie kept busy with books, princesses, and movies. Jason and I stayed entertained with several books on tape. We love our new place and our new life in sunny Florida!!!

Daddy's Birthday SillyBration

Well blogger has started showing a whole bunch of words and symbols for each of the pictures that I download so I cannot do any more captions under each picture because I have no idea where one picture begins or ends.

But anyway we celebrated Jason's 33rd birthday on Friday. It was our best celebration yet. We started off with a round of mini-golf. Navie was such a good sport, she kept trying until she got it in the hole. She may have picked it up and moved it a few times but it was lots of fun until around hole #14 or so. She started to lose patience with herself but still so fun. After golf, we went to our favorite place Texas Roadhouse. Since Navie's birthday is in December too, Navie sat up in the saddle with Jason. Hopefully I'll get a picture of that up soon. Then on to see the Muppet movie. Jason got 3 free movie passes from work so we thought we'd better use them up before we head out.









Don't they look happy with their cake...not sure what that was about. After the movie, Navie fell asleep on the way home before having cake. Not to worry, she woke up at 4:30 in the morning crying because she didn't have cake. But the crisis was averted and she was back asleep in no time. After lunch the next day we had cake. Yes it was pink and yes Jason had a big piece on his birthday (the night before).
