Since Davis has a brand new job that pays him for having holidays off now, we decided to go to Florida to pick up Carter and John Michael. We left after he got off work on Thursday and headed out. Not even 30 minutes away from the house, the car made a horrible noise! Our serpentine belt had snapped. We limped our way off and put on a new one. Got back on the interstate, and Snap! AGAIN! So we limped off again and then not even a few minutes after we were sitting there, KABOOM! Our radiator had cracked. Hence the tow truck and subsequent hundreds of dollars spent on fixing all of this junk. But that didn't stop our journey! We arrived in Florida around 4 the next morning, but were woken up with sweet hugs and kisses! I missed those boys something fierce!
We swam hard and played hard. We let the boys shoot off fireworks for the first time on the beach and we enjoyed watching the fishermen bring their catch in. One day, I promised Carter, we will take him on a boat to go fishing. We fished every day and used the casting net all the time as well. We caught a crab and even a few tiny fish in the ocean! John Michael played tons of beach baseball, and we couldn't stretch the daddy far enough. Very relaxing! We made it back last night and found everything the same - which is always a plus.
Since today is John Michael's birthday, we have a BIG day planned of fun with a birthday party to top it off tonight!
