Our weekend of adventure...

This weekend our family went to Florida for my Grandpa's 90th birthday! Wow, what a trip. Noah got to ride on his first plane, which he loved and thankfully we really great on, and we got to spend some really great family time together. We rode on 4 different planes between here and there and both boys were just fascinated by them. Adin has flown several times before but loves to sit by the window and watch the take offs and landings, which we learned quickly was one of Noah's favorite parts too! While in Florida we did the typical family reunion things with a couple of trips to the beach included! Adin loved to run into the ocean and just crash into the water and Noah LOVES to eat sand! I know I know, it is gross, but he was literally covered from head to toe in sand and sticking it in his mouth by the handfull! We all had a really great time and got some really great pictures! I will try to post them soon. All in all we had a great time.
***Special note to Mandy...there is an amazing jewerly store there that my mom took us too and I thought of you the whole time I was in there! You would love it...extremely cute jewelry, with amazing prices so if you ever plan a trip to Bonita Springs, Fla let me know. I will give you directions : )***
Now, on to other things...for those of you who don't know, we have a contract on our house in Texas and have put a contract on a house here in Tulsa. We are very excited about all of it! We are closing on our house in Texas either the late afternoon of the 30th or early morning of the 31st and then hopefully can close on our house in Tulsa on the 31st as well. At this point, it looks like we will be in our own home for the holidays and I really excited about that! I will keep you posted on things from this end but please be praying for smooth transitions all around! I will write more later, AND will be able to write more and post more pictures once we get into our own home!
Will write more later!

So what did you bring me back?!! hahaha!! :0) Lance and I want to take a trip back to Florida someday, so I'll have to keep that destination in mind! (and maybe by then I could actually AFFORD to buy some jewelry!ha!)
Seriously, I'm so thrilled that the housing issue is working out for you and having your own home in time for the holidays is an amazing accomplishment. Isn't God good?

Florida....I am JEALOUS!!! I'm glad you had so much fun! Wish I could have crashed...how awkward would that have been, if I just happened to show up on the same plane as you guys! Stalker much? I'm just kidding!
