Round 2

We had a few round 2s this weekend....Patriot and camping....

Friday started off with me going to the Tigers vs Braves baseball game. A friend and I went to the game at Disney's Wide World of Sports. The game was sold out and there were tons of Tigers fans. The Braves play their spring season at the Disney facility. It was 80 and the sun was glowing...prefect baseball weather :) It was great seeing Damon play for a real team too :)

Saturday started with us packing up my car for a weekend at the beach. We decided that we were going to stop by a Jeep dealership on our way out to take a look at a Patriot. A few hours later we left the dealership with a NEW burnt orange Jeep Patriot. Scott was sad to say bye to the Mountaineer (again) and I am happy he is in a safe car. After a trip back and forth to the apt and trading in Scott's old car we were on our way to the beach.

We headed to Vero Beach to meet up with some friends and camp. Due to our camping trip in August Scott tried to make this trip the best camping ever :) So we set up camp and the boys started a fire. The bonfire really reminded me of MI (people don't have bonfires here like they do up there). We even got to teach our native FL friends how to make s'mores. It was the first time they had every made them. I do have to say the weather/temperature was way cooler this trip and the mosquitoes aren't out in full force yet :) We did however forget pillows...oops


We were suppose to get up Sunday and head to West Palm Beach because Scott was suppose to go "looking for bugs" (lobster hunting). Well due to storms and wind the dive trip was canceled :( So instead we all went to the beach for a bit and headed to lunch at one of our favorite "beach shacks" Dakine Deago Insane Burrito. It is this really cool little beachy burrito place.

Scott was quite disappointed he did not get to "bug" but the weekend was wonderful. I am still up in the air about this whole camping thing...one night is not bad but any longer we are going to have to work on that...haha!

The rainy season has started...the humidity is coming back....summer is right around the corner...

Weekend Off

I finally had 2 days off in a row from both jobs :) and it was on a weekend :)

On Saturday Scott and I went to the East Orlando Beer Festival. The weather was prefect (a nice 80 with the sun out all day) and the beer was great. We got to try some of our favorites (Orberon) and some new stuff. I have found a new liking to Ciders as well. We both got a little red which means the tans are on their way back :)

Scott finds it very "cool" to wear his Bell's soccer jersey when we go to different beer things. So naturally he had to wear it to the festival and as usual people came up to him saying how "cool" he is for having it. He has decided that Bell's should pay him because he is helping to advertise for them. I think it is just funny...it is a conversation started to say the least though!


Today we have been laying low. Scott is going out of town AGAIN for work so he is getting ready for that. He will be in Miami (which he is not too fond of) doing a dive all week. The one thing he does like about the ocean dives is that there is a lot more wild life for him to see. I am still questioning this whole work thing....hahaha :)

We are both back to the grind tomorrow...

Hope everyone is doing well...we miss you all!

Way TOO Long

It has been way too long since the last blog...which means we have been VERY busy in the last 2-3 months. So we are going to rewind and start where we left off....

Christmas....Christmas was wonderful! My parents and brother came down for a week to spend the holiday with us. We went to Disney (of course) and spent x-mas day on the beach. It was great to be spending time with them :) We couldn't have asked for better weather either! It was a bit different having it sunny and warm for x-mas though...not in a bad way though. I was really excited to cook our first holiday meal which we did x-mas eve. Here are some pics.
For New Years we went to dinner and out with some friends. Scott had his first Tranny experience too. The bar we ended up going to had a tranny mc. To this day he still does not believe me that it was a man dressed as a woman.

2010 has been busy and eventful so far....

I now have 2 part time jobs. I am still with Williams Sonoma which is during the day and starting in January I started a night job doing inventory for stores. Needless to say there are a lot of days when I don't get much sleep and some days when Scott and I don't see each other but on the bright side I am keeping busy and making money.

The big adventure we are on right now though is finding a home. We are in the midst of house hunting. So far it has been tons of fun, exciting, and kind of scary. We have spent any free time looking at houses.

The weekend before we went to Charleston Scott's parents were able to come down to visit for the weekend. We went to Disney and Scott took them to see the Manatee's (I had to work :( and I gave up on those guys...after trying to see them 3 times and it not working out I am thinking it is not meant to be). The three of them also got to head to the beach and get some sun.

We recently went on a mini vacation weekend to Charleston, SC. On our way there we stopped in St. Augustine. It is the oldest city in the country and was est. in 1565. It holds the Fountain of Youth - which we did not find. We both loved the city and will be planning on going back again soon. I had to have Scott put a time limit on our stop because there is so much to see there.
Then off to Charleston
Scott had his annual work conference and I got to go along again this year. Friday I spent the day exploring Charleston while Scott was in class/work. Saturday he worked half the day and the other half we spent in the city. We went to a great lunch at a little southern place called Poogans Porch - I had fried green tomatoes benedict, grits and biscuits and Scott had a crab cake omelet and biscuits. We also took a tour of Ft. Sumter which was great. After that we decided we are officially use to the southern weather. We were both bundled up in hoodies and coats and still freezing. I of course liked the old churches and cemeteries throughout the city and Scott liked the bridge.
We were then lucky enough to have Beave and his girlfriend come to visit us during their spring break. We went to Disney and the beach. It was great to see them and had a great time!

Besides all of that nothing is going on here...hahaha!! We are enjoying 2010 so far :) The weather is starting to get nice here (80 today) and I can hear the beach calling our names in the future here. I am so ready to be back at the beach and soaking up the sun!
