Florida

Soooo... first off, Tyler and Erin - you can stop waving now, we're back from our vacation. :)
Well, I've been feeling pretty cruddy and tired since we got back from Florida and so this blog is way overdue. Turns out I had sinusitis pretty bad and my thyroid levels were low (which is not good), so I'm on some medicine now to make me feel better; but enough with boring health stuff. :)

We had an awesome time on vacation with my sister and her family and thought I'd post some pictures of our time together. :) Most of the pictures, of course, include Samuel.




This is my sister Lori, her husband Jeff, and their boys BJ and JoJo. No, those aren't their real names... and yes, this is the first family picture I have ever had of them. :)

Here, Sam is completely flirting with the princess at Medieval Times. He gave her a flower, danced around a little bit, and then proceeded to hi-five her, the king, and all the royal guards. It was awesome. :)

Samuel is ready for the beach!

Having fun at the beach. The beach was BEAUTIFUL! The sand was super, super fine and practically white. It was a private beach too, so there weren't a lot of people around.

We stayed at my aunt and uncle's condo down in Siesta Key. It was very private and quiet which was great. Sam had lots of fun playing basketball and ping pong, but had the most fun playing in the pool! His favorite thing was to jump in the pool... over and over and over again. :)

Mark got incredibly, crazily burned while we were in Florida. Here he is feeling sorry for himself.

Mark, BJ, and JoJo are showing off their muscles....

and here, Mark is showing off his mad boogie board skills. haha. :)

Me and Sam at Animal Kingdom

The last time my sister and I had a picture of just the two of us was probably 20 years ago. This picture was long overdue!
