We're baaaccckkkkk!!!!!

wowzers, what a week we have had!!! We headed out last Thursday after work and arrived in Jacksonville around lunch time Friday and immediately hit up the beach. The weather was amazing our entire vaca, we got really lucky. Friday night we stayed right on the beach to hang out with Westley's family.

Mom and Paul couldn't wait to get on the beach! 

Friday Stephanie, Wes' little sister came over to the hotel and brought her boys to swim and hang out. 

WE MADE IT!!! 

Wes and Christopher played in the sand all afternoon until dinner time, so cute! 

Then we all met up at Joe's crab shack for dinner. (All 28 of us total) 

Mom and Paul gettin' ready to get crackin' 

Wes and Stephanie! 

Chris and Westley's older sister Courteny. 

"The Gang" 

Teddy, Westley's older brother had to get up on a table and do the chicken dance, hilarious!!! 

It was so nice to finally meet everyone and Wes had a great time catching up with his siblings. Luckily we caught our cruise ship where they all live!

sail away...

We're headed on our cruise TODAY!!! I can't wait to get on the boat and lay out and relax all week long. Oh and see all the beaches in the BAHAMAS!!!

random pictures

I don't think the dogs EVER get out of the window all day long...they are here when I leave in the mornings and still here when I come home in the afternoons. same spot every.single.time.

Lyla will mix it up...every.once.in.a.while. She likes to lay on top of the couch. (this was prior to their baths) 

I.Love.This.Car. So fast and oh so nice and pretty dang good looking too. 

This picture of Roxi cracks me up. She looks like a little old lady with her cigarette hanging out of her mouth, hilarious. 

I got a quick picture of Lynlea the other night too. This is 9 weeks out from meeting Joss!!! 

Josslyn's first bathing suit!!! so sweet and so tiny. 

I just had to post this. I asked Wes to hold this dress up while I sent a pic to mom the other night and he thought he would strike a little pose to go with. 

voyager

what a saturday. wes, his dad, and bert got up really early to go fishing. they ended up staying all morning and half the afternoon. so allison and i headed out to run some errands. we went to old navy, target, khols, tj maxx, lunch at jasons deli, and then headed to the mall. we seriously left my house at 10:30 and didn't get home until 3:30...weeeew! afterwards the dogs and i ran with wes to his office and then back home to get ready for our fun night out. us 4 all went to the casino for a nice dinner and to hang out and listen to a really good band.

bertle and westley all dressed up!!!

bert wanted "senior pics" re-taken so this is the best i could do, hilarious!

after dinner we did a small amount of gambling. i played wheel of fortune with allison and wes played sex and the city, yes he did!

we stayed for a few hours and then headed home since we lost a hour of sleep that night.

voyager was the band that night...so good.

*funny hemi story: while we were at the office hemi was running around the parking lot and pretty close to the pasture where the horses are (he didn't notice they were out there). then right when we were getting ready to leave he noticed a horse walking towards him...oh my! he started growling, kicking grass everywhere, and acting a fool. he ran as fast as he could back to the truck BUT stopped about 5 times to look behind him to make sure it wasn't following him. that dog is such a MESS!

double date on a week night

WHAT??? Wes and I went out to eat with Al and Bert tonight. We never go out to eat through the week, we usually save that for the weekend AND I love to cook. But we usually eat with Al and Bert one night through the week at one of our houses and I usually cook. (even if we eat at their house. FYI Al DOES NOT cook)

We went to BWW to watch the Hogs loose...BOO! And I had my very first buffalo wings, they were pretty good and spicy!

OH Bert...gotta love some Bert. He keeps us in stitches ALL night long.

And the BIGGEST sports fan ever!

Poor Hogs didn't pull it through but better luck next game. (fyi We are horrible)

Big weekend plans...can't wait!
