Our Trip to Florida!


Kyle and I went to Florida to celebrate our 8 year anniversary last week. I can't believe we've been married that long!! Every trip we take we make a list of our most memorable moments. It's really fun to look back on the lists that we've made. Here is the shortened version of our "80 Most Memorable Moments on St Pete Beach"...


#23~Delicious Mahi Mahi at Bubba Gumps

#76~The Candy Kitchen--candy cigarettes (didn't know they still made those things) and the biggest jawbreakers we'd ever seen!! The ice cream was delicious too!!

#74~We both scored a hole in one...on the same hole!!!! We both got 2 hole in ones!!!

#66~Seeing the live alligators at the mini-golf course.

#55 & 56~Paddleboating at our resort--First we ticked off this swan. Then we got stuck sideways in a narrow channel and was rescued by a young foreign kid.

#40~The atmosphere at Paddy O'Sullivans (complete with loud, hard Scottish rock music). Kyle liked his burger though:)

#19~Lying on the beach in our cabana--LOVED IT!!! Note Kyle's burnt feet!!

#29~Meeting up with good friends Brent and Beth and eating by the water at Bubba Gumps.

#39~Relaxing and reading "1000 Gifts" on the beach.

Just to give you an idea of how quirky this "memorable moments list" really is, here are a few that I don't have pics to go along with...

#10~ 2 for 1 Raisin Bran
#13~ Saying goodbye to our 2 little chubby cheeked kiddos and Chloe asking "Where's the plane?" when mom and dad picked them up at our house.
#15~Wondering what really goes on at the "Adult Only Pools" at our resort
#23~Cheetos with the Gaulkes on the beach
#31~Realizing that SPF 30 was NOT enough!
#49~Pizza Hut Express on the beach with grape gatorade-yummy!
#50~Seeing people catch fish on the pier
#54~Hanging out at the "Adult Only Pool"
#63~ Eating approximately 10 Oreos on the beach

Sounds like an amazing trip! I love that you keep lists like that...I'm sure looking back on those memories will be so special to you some day! :)

And how are you liking One Thousand Gifts? I convinced Chris to read it while he's down due to his work injury, and he says it's taking him awhile to get used to her style of writing, but he likes it. Hope you like it too! I know it blessed me so much. It's my favorite book of all time, aside from the Bible of course. ;)

I'm LOVING One Thousand Gifts too!! I was wondering what Kyle would think of it too and I'm betting he might feel like Chris...the writing style maybe works better with our girl brains:)

So what DOES go on at the Adults Only Pools?

Hee, hee Lynnette!!! Absolutely NOTHING goes on at the adult only pools. Kyle was disappointed that there wasn't even a sign that said "No Nudity". There was a little shade at that pool so we decided to check it out since I looked like a ripe tomato:)
