Florida

Emily, Laura, Sara and I went to Ft. Lauderdale this past weekend for three days. We had so much fun. It was a great break and although I don't all of a sudden have never ending patience for the boys, I'm glad I went.

The beach. We were so glad that our little Inn provided umbrellas for us. We would have fried. The water was perfect- calm like a lake the first day (so that we could see all the fish and sting rays), a little bit wavy the second day, and pretty windy the third day (see second picture). It was all I wanted and more. We hung out every day- reading and eating cookies.












Dining Out. We went grocery shopping for breakfast and lunch, but ate out for dinner every night.
















Miami. We drove to Miami one evening and went to a very different outdoor mall. It seemed very... foreign. Little markets, weird smells, everything in Spanish. It was fun.











Ice Cream. Sara used to live down there and knew of this amazing ice cream place. We got a little too rambunctious and ordered way too much. We tried to shove it down, but didn't come close. We were sad to see it all get thrown away.
