I kinda suck at this blogging thing..

LoL. I failed the 30 Day Photo Challenge by Day 5. I guess that's what happens when you make the decision to start something like that a few days before you go on vacation. Oops! Speaking of Florida, we had a FANTASTIC time! We ended up leaving on Friday morning at 2am, and surprising Jon and Krys by getting there WAY earlier than I told them we would be. I triiiiccckkeedddd yoouuuu!!! ;) I was making posts on Facebook about us going to bed, and then being up and packing the car and leaving, all the while we were really already halfway there. I ended up calling her about a block from the house, BSing about where we were gonna stop for lunch, and that we were halfway there. The conversation went something like this..

Me: [To E] Babe, wheredo you want to eat lunch at?
Krys: ARBY'S!
Me: Ooo Arby's sounds good!
[Turns onto their street]
Me: Actually, though, I was thinking of eating at a place called, "KRYSTAL'S HOUSE!!"
[HONK HONK!]
Krys: You have GOT to be shittin' me!!!

HAHA it was amazing!! She forgot we even had the Caddy, so she didn't recognize the car when we turned down the street. I loved it!! And then... I got a BIG hug, and then, "WHERE'S MY BABY?" Figures! I already expected it anyways LoL. She totally bypassed E, too, haha! I handed her Dom, and she disappeared into the house. She had some loving up on her nephew to do! It was a great start to a great week, even if it did go too fast! Here are some highlights:

Gavin and Emma fell in LOOOOOOOVVEEEEEE with their cousin! They loved holding him all the time, and giving him kisses. It was so sweet!

We had a crab night, courtesy of Jon's brother, and it was AMAZING! Even more amazing was that E manned up and tried some, and was surprised when he really liked it! SCORE!

Krys and I both were both itching for some new ink, so we went and got matching tattoos! Iris is the "birth flower" for February [much like amethyst is the birth stone], so we picked out a butterfly iris and this was the final product! We love it!


 For St. Patty's Day we had lunch at McGuire's Irish Pub. Super tasty, and we had a ton of fun!!


And now we're enjoying spending time with my brother, Russell, his wife, Angela, and their babies, Sam and Lily. They came down here to visit us on Russell's Spring Break so they could meet Dominic. Oh, and see us, too, I guess, LoL. I'll be posting pics from this week soon!

It looks like you had a great time! :D I'm so glad you had a good vacation. I'm not usually into tattoos, but that is a beautiful Iris tattoo! Love it!
