FLORIDA!!!

So I'm not sure why blogger isn't getting some of the pictures?!! ARG but anyway- I'll work on it later- for now here are some of our trip to paradise! Candy and her family were very gracious and fed us and put up with our Beth that didn't sleep well at night! We fit in tons of fun:







Beth did pretty well in the plane- we were just glad to be on the plane since our flight was cancelled due to the snow storms and we found another way to get there just in the nick of time! We went to the zoo and saw Azlan! (j/k just some cool lion)


Sunset at the beach was amazing- Beth LOVED the beach- just like her parents I guess!




mnn lots of treats- popcicles and homemade smores (we had a great time with our nephews and neice!)

Our future home! (totally kidding I would never want to live in florida- just visit!)


Ben and Jared went deep sea fishing and caught us our dinner! mnnn they had fun with the pelicans that wanted thier bait... mnn eel guts!







We went to a crazy fun art festival- the kids had a great time!- Beth loved the balloons :)




Ben and I had a date (with beth) at The Dock- fancy shmancy but oh so fun and tasty



The people at our neighboring table kept throwing dinner bits (seafood) off the railing to the fish- so lots of fish got fancy dinner too!



We enjoyed the everglades (lot of alligators up close and personal!) And Jared and Candace went all out with dinner- we had two kinds of fish, crab legs and shrimp! it was soooooo good! They fed us very well!


We wanted to camp out since it was so warm but the sprinklers came on at 2:00am... (since when do sprinklers come on in february!? - I guess in Florida they do!) here they are drying out the tent... opps!






There is a manatee in this picture but you have to look real close to see it (mostly under the water)


Tired girl in the plane coming home... We had soooo much fun! Thanks candy and jared :)




ps- this baby in my belly is getting bigger! I think I'm 15 weeks along and feeling pretty good!
Sorry the pictures aren't in order- i can't figure out blogger... :(

It looks like you had a wonderful vacation. I am happy for you that you got to go and get some sun. Your photos are very nice. I laughed at the pelicans so close.
