The Boys Are Back in Town!!

I have had alot of fun these past couple of weeks. It has just been us girls ( my mom, my sister,and I), as my dad and brother were in Canada. but they are in Boston tonight and will both be home tomarrow night! I am soo excited to see them. but us girls have had a whole lot of fun together too. Admittedly most of our time was spent watching chick flicks and eating watermelon. We did go on a little road trip for a night though. On Monday we ventured to the west coast of Florida to a little island called Sanibel and Captiva. It was absolutely gorgeous there! We stayed at this great resort type hotel. We went to the Mucky Duck for supper. We bet money on a crab in the Nascrab races. He didn't win even though his shell was the shinniest, he just sat in the middle of the table. After the races we went to the beach in front of our hotel to look at the stars. They were amazing! When I get a house of my own I am going to make my whole roof out of glass so I can see the stars every night! I miss the stars so much... all you see down here in the city at night is smog and airplanes! The next day we went to the beach. It was the most amazing thing ever. The sand was white and smooth and sparkly and it stuck to my skin and stayed there all day... it wouldn't come off. hehe. While we were at the beach we went shelling (that is looking for shells). Well, we didn't have to look far at all... the beaches were COVERED with them! I have never seen so many shells in all my life! They were literally piled up on the beach and the farther out in the water you went the bigger and shinnier the shells you would find. After the beach we went shopping at some outlet stores. I got some great Jeans and a cute purse from Gap for only like $20 total! and I also got a swimsuit... which wasn't really a bargain at all, but very flatering. It was a wonderful trip and It was nice to get to know my mother and sister a little better again. We have bonded alot over these past couple of weeks. We've realised some different things we have in common and also, hehe, a little bit about how to push each other buttons a bit too much. I love my mother and Sister, but our house definitely needs its testosterone back!! Welcome home DAD and CALEB!! We missed you!!
