Friends and School Vacations!!!

Jake didn't have to start at Disney for a few weeks and our friends Jon and Gretchen that are in Dental School in Milwuakee had only a few days break before they started back up, so they flew into Orlando and we had a few fun packed days.  We drove about 4 hours to go to Naples and the beach there was like paradise, so we stayed clear until sunset and it was just beautiful.

The everglades were just barely outside of Naples so we drove out.  I thought that this sign was great the only crossing signs I have ever seen living in Idaho is for deer, so I was blown away when I saw a Jaguar crossing sign. I won't lie it kinda scared me to get out of the car!
Jake finally got to see a Gator out in its natural habitat!  You may have to blow up the picture to see it, but I promise its there.

While Jon and Gretchen were here there was a shuttle launch so we drove out to Titusville to watch it.  It was awesome to be that close you could feel the heat and vibrations of it even though we were across the Indian River which is about thirteen miles away.



Last and finally, Addi was invited to go to Baby Rulin's first birthday.  She had soo much fun and is still singing Happy Birthday a week later. 

It's good to be Home!!

So as you all know I was in Idaho for a few weeks while Jake was in Buenos Aires for school.  Anyways it ended up that we were away from each other for two weeks and four days which is the longest we have ever been apart.  So needless to say it is soo good to be back home with each other.  When me and Addi got home Jake had a little surprise for us and he took us to Sea World which I have been begging to take Addi to Sea World ever since we moved here.  We had so much fun and the best part is that for residence you pay for a day and then get to come back the rest of the year, so I am so excited to be able to go back again with Addi through out the summer when we will be bored while Jake is working!

Addi just loved the Shamu show, but not quite as much as the dolphin show she loved that the dolphins danced to the music in the water, she was just in awe!  It was a great trip. 
The very next day we went out to the beach to spend the day.  Addi is the biggest beach bum I have ever seen this was the only way I could get her to leave her Grandparents and get back on the airplane to come back home was with the promise of going to the beach as soon as we got home, and she did not forget my promise she reminded me the very next morning!
