Florida Fun





The girls, including Krysta, were on Spring Break this past week so we spent the time in our all time favorite vacation spot, Destin, FL. Krysta and her boyfriend Grant joined us as did JJ, Angie and their boys. Jeff's parents also joined us for a couple of nights and we celebrated Jeff's birthday and Granddaddy Jack's 65th birthday while they were there. The kids had an absolute blast and if not in the pool were at the beach or playing putt putt, or jammin to guitar hero, or fishing at the pier, or looking for crabs at night, or eating out and having some great seafood, or shopping, or just hanging out and enjoying being with family. The weather was absolutely perfect after a couple of days of rain and the week went by too quickly. Only 5 more weeks before Krysta finishes her first year of college and is home for the summer. :)

Melissa comes to STL!

We were so happy that our good friend Melissa Mayo made the drive from Cincinnati to come spend part of her spring break with us. After Jake's soccer game on Saturday, we spent the day taking her out for good food and to the Arch. It was a first for us to go to the top of the Arch... 630 feet up! We had lunch at Pappy's Smokehouse and then had dessert at Crown Candy! We hope more of our Cincinnati friends will come see us soon!!
