Spring Break in Florida -- What were we thinking?!

Note to self.....don't go to Miami Beach/Ft. Lauderdale during March unless you want to "party harty" with the college kids! What were we thinking!!! Even though we did have ONE college kid with us -- but, Lerin (THANK GOODNESS) isn't the "party harty" type, so we endured two complete nights of no sleep because of all the 'spring break happiness' going on in the rooms next to ours at our hotel. Lynn, Lerin and I (Alexa was home with two friends the week before for her spring break -- so Lerin was going to be all alone, so we took her with us for a few days) headed out to Miami Beach/Ft. Lauderdale area to hit the beach before Lynn and I headed out on a cruise to Key West and Cozumel.


We did manage to have a good time anyway! Except that it RAINED two of the days on our trip!!! Grrrr.... why is it that the last two times we have planned trips to Florida, it rains on us?! What is up with that! Lerin flew back home after 4 days and Lynn and I jumped on the cruise ship for 4 more days.


We had a great time, but were really glad to get back home. It is really true -- "there's no place like home." We finally made it back in to St. George around midnight on monday night -- I had to be smiling and ready for my students at 7:00 a.m. the next day, plus had to run right after school to New Beginnings at church -- needless to say I was exhausted by the time my head it the pillow that night. I think I am almost rested enough to start planning the next adventure!

Jadilyn's sleepover

We were lucky to have our cute little Jadi come and have a "sleepover" on friday night. We had a blast with her! She learned two new tricks this week -- she can wave bye bye and pulls herself to a standing position! She also came to show off her first teeth to us. Can't you see them in this photo?! We all can't believe she will be 9 months old on the 17th!
