Karen flew in on Thursday night and got an earlier flight than we had expected, so as soon as she came in we went straight to dinner and then had a lazy night. Lish and Karen drove me into work the next day and then went to the airport again to pick up Scott. They came and brought me lunch later that day and then they just relaxed. They came to pick me up and we made a fabulous Costco run. We still have a lot of the food we got from that trip. It's wonderful! Afterwards we went to a nice dinner.
Saturday morning we headed back to the airport to pick up Maggie and Brandon. We had them drop off their stuff and headed out to go canoe-ing down the Wakulla River. That was a fun experience! We hadn't done that before so we had a good time. On our ride we came thisclose to a family of manatees. We were surrounded by three of them! It was pretty amazing! That night we headed to dinner at another one of our favorite restaurants (there were lots of good eats during this weekend). After dinner we just relaxed at home with Jazz and watched a movie.
(Maybe some too excited in-laws here?)
Sunday came and I had to go to church to do sharing time. We skipped out early so we could get stuff ready to head to the beach. (I know, we totally broke the Sabbath. But family fun is important!) We headed to St. George Island, which was beautiful. The weather was almost perfect. It was a little hot though and I could tell I was getting too much sun. (I got so sunburned after that weekend, I was swollen.) It was really nice though to relax at the beach. Jazz loved it too, of course. 
(The sand face Maggie and Brandon made. They designed the eyebrows after Lish's. How thoughtful.)
It was a busy weekend. Lots of traveling to and from the airport, lots of laughs, lots of playing with Jazz. We had a great time and loved that our family made that effort to come spend time with us! We can't wait to see them again soon!
Monday morning came and we slept in a little. Then we headed to the Tallahassee Museum, which is more like a zoo. We walked around and saw all the cool Floridian animals. Then we had to take Maggie and Brandon back to the airport. Karen, Scott, Lish and I then went back into town and grabbed a late lunch/early dinner. Then we headed back to the airport to drop off Karen and Scott.

We love that you loved having us! AND if anyone needs a recommendation on what to do in and around Tally, Lish and Whitney are the bomb. We DID have lots of good eats and even better ice cream; and the best of all = JUST BEING TOGETHER :-) Thanks for hosting us; we miss being nearer to you both. Love you TONS, Moms
What a fun trip! Yeah, there's something you might've missed.... I'm 18 weeks along in my pregnancy, so a baby room is a must :)
We LOVE the in-law pic...you and Brandon do look a little too excited :) Thanks for hosting such a wonderful weekend. We hope to host you guys sometime up in Bmore.
