Florida - Part 1

This is July 2010 - Part Two

We spent a fabulous week in Florida on the Gulf of Mexico with Jason's parents, grandparents, brother, sister-in-law, and our adorable niece, Allison!  We had a wonderful vacation and it was perfect!  Katelynn loved our beach house!  ♥ 

Saturday... We flew from Milwaukee to Tampa and drove to dinner to meet Grammy and Grandpa and Big Papa and Gigi.  We had a wonderful dinner and then took a midnight walk on the beach.

Sunday... Pajama's on the beach!  Katelynn was so excited to get out of the room and on the beach. 

 I love seeing Katelynn with these four!  ♥

All smiles with Grandpa!

A long day at the flea market, swimming, playing in the sand and no nap meant a just before dinner crash on the bed.  Fast asleep...

While Mommy and Daddy got ready for a fabulous date...

That lasted only an hour, before I got a phone call from Grammy, needing us to come back to Katelynn!

 Our date night, turned into family dinner at CiCi's.  (ugh).


Monday ... swimming in the morning, a trip to Tampa in the afternoon, and then a big family dinner at the Wine Cellar!

 Aunt Sandy and Allison- stealing a picture as soon as she got out of the airport!  ♥

July 2010 - Part One

July was over much too quickly for my liking. We had such a fun and busy month. We started off July with a bang, a fun weekend visit from Marge and some fireworks for the 4th of July...

A fabulous night of martinis on the deck ♥
