Overdue Florida post and picture overload

A few weeks ago Carson and I went to Florida to attend my older sister's wedding. I know what you're thinking, "How terrible it would be to HAVE to go to Florida in February". Don't worry, I was willing to sacrifice four days of student teaching for her. That's just how much I love her. We were there for five days and really had a good time. We hung out on the beach, ate some good seafood, and partied at the wedding. Let's just say, I was not ready to come home. The frozen tundra just does not compare to the tropical weather of St. Petersburg, Florida. 

My dad and I enjoying the dance floor. (Check out my grandparents to the left of me. They are really enjoying the dance floor!)

My new brother-in-law Erik and I. Keli sure got herself a keeper.
Carson and I after the wedding on the beach. Check out my sweet farmers tan. Looks great with my bridesmaid getup doesn't it?
My sister Annie and I at the reception.

The view from the bridesmaid sweet. Maybe now you understand why I was not ready to come home. 

Us on the beach. 
Annie, Me, Mom, Keli and Emma at the spa.
Dad and I. Look how white I am compared to him. GRRR!

We la la loved it in Florida! We hope to return in the future.


Things in our life are just the same as always. Carson continues to play and work (in that order), while I slave away daily teaching high school students about drugs and making them run laps and learn sport skills. Only three weeks left!! CANT WAIT! 

We hope everything is well for you! Summer is near!
