Where did the Florida weather go???

Well, we made it back from Florida just in time to FREEZE here in Kentucky!  Oh well . . . the sunny, warm temps were fun while they lasted!  We had a GREAT vacation with our friends!  Here are some pics from our time in Marco Island!!!

The Beach!!!  

Sunset at the beach--BEAUTIFUL!!!

Nate and Aaron shootin' hoops in the pool behind the house we stayed in.  THE HOUSE WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!  (Thank you, Kempers!!!!)

Sorry if this grosses you out, but Nate and I are still in LOVE after 6 years!!!  :)

The boys were in heaven - - look at this SCREEN!

The front of the house

Grillin' out!!!!  YUMMY!

The Ransons at Da Vinci's (the best Italian food on the island, just so you know)

Dining at Da Vinci's!

After a long day of shopping, the boys thought it would be cool to put on some of their new clothes and hats to show off their purchases for the day!

This is the view from the back of the house--AMAZING!

Beach day!!!  

We ate A LOT--it was awesome! :)  I started to take pictures of every single place we ate, but I lost track after the first full day.  :)

Nate bought our little guy a Gators hat! 

So, as you can see, the trip was AWESOME--from the food to the setting to the company to the shopping to the sleeping to the eating to the eating to the eating -- it was GREAT!!!!!  

Back in the real world . . . 

Our agency got 6 referrals yesterday!!!!  (3 girls, 3 boys)  Congratulations to the happy families!!!

Jill and Nolan are coming to visit this weekend, so we're looking forward to having a piece of home here with us!  Happy Halloween, everyone (or Happy Harvest--whichever you prefer)!  :)
