Florida! (But can't prove it)

Chris and I had a great time in Florida last weekend! Of course, I took a couple of photos of the hotel room . . . and the camera battery died. But we had a wonderful long weekend in Ft. Meyers Beach. It was chilly for Florida, but still around 70 degrees (a good 90 degrees warmer than it was at our house that morning), so we thought it was great! We laid on the beach every afternoon. Drove around and did some shopping and saw the sights. I got my butt kicked in mini-golf, as I do every time Chris and I play. I called home 4 times a day to see how the girls were. I missed them so! And we had wonderful dinners out. I think I ate my fair share of crab cakes and key lime pie!

The girls had a great time. The logistics of leaving 2 children for 5 days and 4 nights is astounding! On Thursday night, my mom, my sister, and her two children came to stay at our house. They watched the girls until Sunday afternoon, when Chris's dad and his wife came to stay at our house Sunday night. They drove the girls to daycare on Monday morning. Then Chris's mom picked them up form daycare and drove them to her house where they stayed until we arrived home on Tuesday. I kept calling to make sure I knew where Mira and Amelia were! But we arrived home refreshed and relaxed to two very happy and healthy little girls. A good time was had by all!

Thanks to everyone who watched Mira and Amelia for us. We really loved the time away!

A few photos of them at home while we were away:





Oh, and this is so funny! Depending on what kind of house you have in our neighborhood, you have the chance of a phallic-shaped ice sculpture forming. This is what we "get" to look at from our kitchen door. Hilarious!
