Family Time




We are enjoying our time together, relaxing and staying close to home...not to mention trying to save $$ on gas!! I won't go there =[

We attempted to go to church today; arrived late and left early, so I'm not really sure if it counts!!

Nana and Papa are coming soon and we are going to go hang out by the pool.

Happy Reunion!


The reunion has begun!! Christopher and I met Taylor (TeeTah) and Hope (Hopey) at Tampa International Airport last night. When Christopher saw his sisters, he started running toward them, arms open wide! Taylor dropped down to one knee and it was such a touching scene. Yeah, I got it on video! Of course!! Maybe I'll figure out how to put that clip on here in the next couple of days. Tons more pictures to come for sure!!

Father's Day 2008


We had a busy Father's Day yesterday. Poor Colin. No time to rest! He had office hours on Saturday, so that was just a regular day and then we had so much to try and squeeze in on Sunday, it didn't matter that it was Father's Day! We did go to church which was nice. Well, except that Christopher wasn't thrilled to be there. He kept saying "Go now?" every five minutes, despite the multiple snacks and toys that we brought.

After that, we went for brunch at one of Christopher's favorite restaurants and he got to see his "girlfriend"; a regular waitress there that he adores. I took a picture of her holding him. So cute.

We squeezed in an exciting hour of grocery shopping and topped off the night with dinner at John's Pass. We ate outside on the boardwalk. The weather was absolutely perfect. A gentle breeze and low humidity. Such a nice night to eat dinner outside. We love walking the boardwalk and looking in the shops. We didn't see any dolphins in the bay this time though and I skipped the frozen custard! All - in - all, not a bad day!

My What Big TEETH You have!!


So, we're averaging twice a week at Busch Gardens! Christopher is really starting to feel like he owns the place. This is the only chance that I get to get any exercise! Christopher won't tolerate sitting in the stroller for a walk at the old park and whenever I try to ride my exercise bike, you guessed it, he is right there trying to climb on with me. I used to ride during his nap, but lately he hasn't been so consistent with a nap. I even tried getting up early yesterday to try and ride before he got up and yup, before I could even get started, he woke up. So, anyway, I get a nice walk. I skip the tram and walk around the whole park for three to five hours. I'm not skinny yet, but I'm hoping!!

My girls are coming, my girls are coming! June 25th is the BIG day! Hope and Taylor are coming down. Britany has to work at camp for at least a week and then she'll be coming down. She is leaving here on July 21st, and flying to Denver to check out the Air Force Academy and then back to NH. Taylor heads back to NH on July 10th for cheer camp and Hope is here until July 14th.Obviously, I will be taking a million pictures!

Hopefully, we will do Disney at least one day while the three of them are down.
