The Beach, A Fish and A Wedding

Can I just tell you that I have fallen in love with Florida? Patrick and I went to Jacksonville/St. Augustine, FL for 5 days and had the BEST time! We got to lie on the beach, Patrick got to go fishing and I got to hang out with girlfriends. We stayed at the homes of some lovely family friends and felt so welcome (and we got to eat their food). And the end of our time there was the wedding of one of my best friends, Lauri, which was the culmination of a fabulous vacation.
We missed the girls, (thank you grandparents) but the trip was so relaxing and refreshing that I think it has made me a better mom. Or atleast it gave me a better tan! Ha!

This picture is for you, Jeffrey!

The Beautiful Bride, Lauri

Doesn't she look so much like her mother? I love this pic!
