Florida to PA and back again

My gorgeous cousin Sarah got married 2 weekends ago in Florida and Eric shot (photographed) the wedding. It was a beautiful wedding and my first time ever visiting FL. We played in the Atlantic Ocean, which yes is warmer than the Pacific and had an overall great time with family. And since we were already on the east coast we decided that a trip up to Pennsylvania to visit Erics mission would be fun! He hasn't been back since he got home in 2004. It was SO. MUCH. FUN! If it wasn't for missing our little bunnies (that's right the kiddos stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Greenhalgh) we wouldn't have wanted to come home at all. It is just so breathtakingly beautiful there. So much green, and stunning lawns, and vegetable gardens and flower beds EVERYWHERE. I swear, the house could be a total junker and practically falling to the ground but their front lawn would be perfectly manicured with a quaint flower bed. I just fell in love with the place. And it was neat meeting so many people that Eric had taught and the members of the church that he had become friends with. Thank you to everyone that opened your home to us, we love you all so much!

Blue is for...get coloring!

I love the lake. I especially love the lake during the summer. And I MOST especially love the lake when there are jet ski's to be ridden. Thanks Dad and Renee for planning this fun trip, we had a blast!


Look at this crazy baby hair!

The cuteness that is Devin and Marisa :)


Cousin love




Not sure why I didn't get a single shot of my dad, Renee or any of the boys :( Looks like we better do it again SOON!! {hint hint wink wink}

Oh and to explain the title. The other night while driving home we were coming to a stoplight. So Reagan starts saying, "red means stop, yellow means slow down and green means GO!" she pauses for a second then says "and blue means...get coloring!" Just a delightful little look into the funny things my Reagan says :)
