summer



i have had an incredibly memorable summer. it didn't turn out at all as i expected it would. some of my favorites from the summer would be:
- we took finley on her first visit to disney world
- we met the real black stallion and i almost died
- finley got to meet her favorite princesses and disney characters. she even got to dance to her favorite song with sleeping beauty.
- we spent a week at honeymoon island beach in florida
- i saw a manatee swim by 5 feet from me
- i went kayaking in the gulf of mexico
- we spent hours and hours and hours at the pool.
- i drove over 4,000 miles between tenessee, kentucky, indiana, missouri, illinois, and arkansas
- we got to see Wicked again. on the front row. it literally took my breath away
- i got to visit my favorite valley in the world at sunrise and take pictures. and i got to see the steel bridge before they tore it down.
- we got a new professional camera and i actually got some jobs taking people's pictures... www.andyrobephotography.blogspot.com
- i got to have a big pal with cheese and a sweet tea
- we spent a week in the mountains we miss so much
- we spent a week at the largest man-made lake in the midwest
- i got to go tubing with finley. she absolutely loved it
- i'm sure there's more... i have to think

we made it to honeymoon island outside of tampa fl. this was the first view we had of the gulf as we arrived just after sunset.
