Florida

My hubby & me

The Southernmost Point in Key West

Hot Florida Babes

Walking on South Beach (in the day)

The Florida Gang at the Sandbar: Jessi & Nick, Dave & Melissa, Seth & Jenni

Miami Beach

My sweet hubby and I spent one week in Florida with our wonderful friends Melissa & Dave, and Jessi & Nick. It has been 8 years (since our college days) since all 6 of have hung out together! We were so fortunate to use Dave's parents' timeshare in Miami and Marathon Key. Thank you to them!!! We had fabulous food, including one evening of grilling fresh Florida salmon, lobster, shrimp, and steak (thanks Dave & Nick!). All but one, hmmmm who's that?, enjoyed many alcoholic beverages. I even got to play sober cab a few times (in our sweet minivan rental). The weather was in the 60s, one day being 75. We all managed to get a sunburn tho! We even hooked up with Stacey & Darin, as they were in Key Largo! We had a fabulous getaway. Abby & Ashley enjoyed their time at home with Great-Auntie Leslie and then Grammy & Grampy. We were quite excited to see our little girls at the end.
