Here comes the summer! Sorry, everyone we've been busy with our life lately that I don't have time to even put pictures or update our blog!!! I'm so bad with this because I have facebook and its so easy to keep in touch with family and friends there than having to think what to write here. ha.ha. Anyways, this past weekend we drove down to Tampa, Florida to visit my in-laws. Its a 9 hour drive from Alabama and we knew that it was going to be a long drive with our two kids in the car. We were really excited and were looking forward to seeing everyone in Tampa. We left Friday night around 6:30 p.m and got there early in the morning the next day around 4:30 a.m! My husband and I were so exhausted esp. him cuz he had to work that day and then he was the one doing all the driving. I felt so bad because I only drove the last hour. When we got there my mother in law was still up waiting for us to arrive. We talked for a bit and then we went to sleep around 6 a.m. We got a few hours rest and then we went to visit my sister in law Leah and her husband at there new house. We swam in their pool and then we went to the neighborhood pool and slid down the big slide it was so much fun. Monday we went to the zoo with my other sister in law Sarah. She had free guest passes so we didn't have to pay that was great. We saw the kauala bear, monkeys, aligators, sting rays, manatees, sharks and lots of other animals. It was really hot so we didn't stay the whole day. But it was a lot of fun, oh Gabe got to feed some little birds it was so cute. On the 30th my hubby and I celebrated our 3rd aniversary. It was raining that day so we went to go see Transformers 2. It was great action movie we had a blast. Then we went to Chucky Cheese with the entire Thornton Clan including the Andersons and the Lowes. The kids had a great time playing the games and riding the kiddy rides. We wanted to stay the for the Fourth of July weekend but my hubby had to be back for work. So we drove back wednesday and got in a little after 11 p.m. We really had a great time it was great to see most all of the family and some friends and just hangout for few days. We can't wait to go back and visit again. We took a lot of pictures hope ya'll enjoy them!!!
