May 6-12, Brian and I went to Florida! It was the first time I've been back since I moved away and it was harder to leave than I imagined. I think we actually had a pretty full visit and accomplished doing all the things we wanted to and seeing all the people I missed so dearly though. Breakdown of our vacation: Beach, game night at Joe and Julie's with Kimberly and Austin, more beach with Jamesiepie, Rays game vs. the Rangers, seeing Ben and Alicia's home (post reconstruction), going to an amateur skating competition in Tampa, visiting Michael and Sarah, mandatory date night on Pier 60 and Clearwater Beach, church and seeing all my favorite people, Sunday family dinner, more beach, visiting one of the missionaries that taught me (Elder Nilsen still has 9 months left of his mission), Dinosaur World, not enough beach, and an extra night at Gramma's due to a tropical storm. Living in Florida for those 6 months last year was the best decision I've made in years.
"You'll never be completely at home again because a part of your heart will always be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for knowing and loving people in more than one place..."
Kimberly's brother and sister-in-law recently had a new baby boy, Alexander. He is precious! (And Kevin & Shannon have already carted him to numerous Rays games, way to be guys!!)
Joe and Julie have the cutest boys, I swear. Welcome to the Meyers family, Baby Seth! You are PERFECT.
I've already been replaced as the boys favorites. As soon as Brian picked up a light saber and played Star Wars, he won them over.
Date night at Clearwater Beach and Pier 60.
Florida sunsets are the best sunsets.
I don't think a better picture has ever been taken of Elder Nilsen and I.
Brian borrowed Kimmy's skimboard and was quite good at it, my snowboarding, skateboarding, longboarding balancing wiz of a boyfriend.
My favorite homies.
