Florida Vacation!

Ca d'Zan Mansion, Sarasota, FL

For the last week and a half, we were in Florida. We just got back on Monday. It was just wonderful. Our trip down was good and B. did amazingly well. It was about a 26 hour trip for us one way......boy, was it long. Our trip began with a friend's wedding....the whole reason we were going down there in the first place. This girl is not just a friend....she is like a little sister to me. She was the girl that my brother was dating at the time of his car accident. So, she is pretty special to me...especially since she was special to Matt. It has been 10 1/2 years since we shared that tragic day. Matt will live on in our hearts and some day we will be with him forever. It is hard not to wonder "what if", and it was hard to hold back those tears....but I have to trust that God knows. It was so great to see Kristi happy and with an amazing guy who loves her deeply. I am so glad to have been able to share in that joyous event in her life. I love you, Kristi "Jo".
















After the wedding festivities, we stayed in Florida for 1 week and got to have an actual vacation something we haven't had for a very long time. B. loved the beach and the waves...or "wabes" as she called them. Enjoy the photos and we'll load some video later too.
