Whityn goes to Florida!


Well, here I go...I am about to attempt a VERY long post...there might be a part 1 and a part 2. I haven't decided. We will see how this unfolds.
As many of you know Jordy and I were on spring break last week. We flew to West Palm Beach, Florida for some R and R...and Aunt Beezy's wedding. There is lots to report...of course...I will try to hit the highlights and stay on track. We left on Friday from Victor and drove an hour up the road to Idaho Falls to stay the night for our VERY early flight on Saturday morning. It was a fun way to start our vaca...we stayed at the BEST WESTERN (it was really nice) and it was right across the street from Jakers...a yummy little eatery (THANKS for the locals hint Afton)...
We left from Idaho Falls at 6:30 AM and arrived in WEST Palm Beach just after 10 PM...4 planes...many many poopie diapers...a few major meltdowns and lots of laughs. Whityn was a little trooper. We spent the next four days visiting with family, going to the zoo, swimming, playing with cousins, shopping, prepping for AUNT Beezy's wedding, EATING tons of seafood, soaking up the rays and enjoying doing NOTHING. Thursday - Sunday we ventured on down to Delray Beach, Florida and stayed at the Seagate. It was soooooo amazing. They had these huge fish tanks in the lobby with TONS of sea creatures in them...Whittles love it. We strolled around, ate ice-cream, visited the beach, ate more seafood, met new people and had a fun WEDDING weekend with the Griffin-Kirwins. We were so bummed to come back and leave the beach on Sunday. We got back into Idaho Falls around 11PM...and pulled into the driveway around 1:30 AM...and back to school this morning...again Whit was a trooper...he turned 8 months, cut his front two teeth, and is gearing up to CRAWL...that kid is a mellow one..we got so many compliments from people...he is quite the little jet-setter.
THE following are for your viewing pleasure:

  1. Those are great pictures!!I'm glad that Whityn did so well on the trip. Bless his heart...cutting the front teeth are hard. :) Doesn't it just make you want to move to Florida? I LOVE it there!
