Flashback Friday

For our second edition of Flashback Friday, we'll cover our trip to Florida to visit Nick's family in July. This is where our journey to Guam really begins, because it was important to spend some quality time with family before we moved so far away.

We spent most of our time just hanging out. We took a day to go tubing down the Itchitucknee River with Grandpa Van. Grammy Michele couldn't come because of her cast. Howie had fun, but the water was freezing, so he mostly wanted to snuggle with Mama. We also took a Jungle Cruise on the Wacissa River with Grancy & Pappy Scott. Unfortunately we forgot our camera that day. Howie seemed to enjoy the cruise, & he could even see the fish under the water & the mullet jumping. We spent a little time on the beach there, and the freezing cold water didn't seem to bother Howie as much this time. But we had to drag him away when his lips turned blue. On our last day there, Grancy & Pappy took us to a local farm where they get eggs to see the chickens, goats, & other animals. Howie was most interested in the family cat. But the baby chicks were cute, too. We took the train back up to NC, which was lots of fun, except for the 4 hour delay that left us departing at 2 am. Now you'll understand the last picture in the smilebox.
