going out.

We went to sweet tomatoes before we left Florida.

2 mentionables. . .

First, what's different about these 2 pictures?

I had some stains on my skirt, so I soaked it in oxyclean. . . but forgot about it for a week. After washing it, it looked so white and new, and I thought "Yay!" So, I wore it out to lunch. Then I held Ivy. She jumped around a little and next thing I know my thigh is hanging out. I had only been up to the salad bar once at that point. . . and who only goes up once at an all you can eat?!

So, I improvised with our camera bag. Luckily we had taken it. haha.

Sadly, the skirt barely lasted until we got home. I took it off and it was practically in shreds. Non-salvageable. Darn. I really liked that skirt. It's probably already decomposed in the land fill by now. I guess I have to be careful with that oxyclean!

Next, lunch was free for me. Yay! Talk about a bang for the buck.

A little history. . .

I always find stuff in my food--hair, mainly. I'm notorious for it. I think everyone would find more in their food if they paid attention. But alas, I seem to be the one to end up with "the goods" in my meal.

This time was no different.

I was saving the best bite for the end. As I put it on my fork, and almost to my mouth, I noticed my broccoli was moving. "uh, that's not normal," I thought. And upon reinspecting my food I realized it was a creepy, crawly, green bug. Sick. I couldn't eat anymore. Brian took my plate up to the manager and the manager (bless him), said, "oh, that again," (What? this happens often? haha), "which table are you?" he asked. And he was about to give us all a free lunch, but we just didn't feel right about that. So, my lunch was free. After Brian told me that, I decided bugs aren't so bad. . . when they're free. . . so I headed back for more! haha (controversial? haha)

2nd to last stop.

maybe we had the best friends in florida. yep, I think so. they took us boating a couple weeks before we moved. mmmmm. so fun. so amazing. thanks peeps. fun to know ya!

and then we stopped on a little island. maybe it was really cold. and maybe all those shells were really sharp. but maybe we liked it anyway.

alright, no maybes about it. we had a great time! :)

and then we fished. well, jeff fished and i reeled it in.

and then jonah and lance reeled in another one.

and then we let them go.

and then the boys went to bed. and sometimes, that's the best part of the day for me. :)

yep. they're social. they don't want to miss a thing. not a thing before their lids shut. and then it's dreamland. . .
