two weeks away from home...

ahhh, we took a much, much needed vacay the last two weeks. first, to tulsa for the fourth (post below). then we were off to florida and enjoyed one of our favorite places on earth, seaside. my goodness, that place really is a little glimpse of heaven. jay and i had decided years ago on a trip there that once we had kids, we would do everything in our power to take them to seaside each summer.

so, family vacation number one, there we were...and we LOVED every second of it (sidenote - didn't see one tarball or glimpse of anything oil related, and didn't have one moment of rain, just beautiful sunshine every day we were there!!) we also spent time with my brother's family and some of their friends that came in the second week. so much fun!!!

get ready for picture overload!!
