Stolen Camera


Today, I went to up-load some pictures on to my computer. What I discovered is that some cheeky little monkeys stole my camera, and this is some of what I found! I was cracking up!

Pictures of the Trip!

Andrew in his FAVORITE position!
Mother and Daughter!
Just chillin' trying to keep up with all the gossip!
Cousins- Cousins!
Andrew stole MaryCate's flipflops and wore them! Curtis might have some competition with princess dresses in the future!
Outfit from Auntie Annie! Brigit called him "Crabby Pants," all vacation!
My anxiety went up a few notches after seeing this sign. Let's just say, we didn't do ANY swimming in FL!
Enough Said!
This is the LIFE!
We called them "Burt and Ernie!"
Do we HAVE to go back home!?
We went to the grocery store to get dinner and eat outside with the kids one night on a walk. I saw this guy in the background. I told Brigit we should just eat at home. I was ready to make a bee-line out of there. Brigit insisted we stay and eat outside. This guy had a blender plugged into the wall of the grocery store with NO top in sight! He also had a framed 8x10 picture of Jesus around his neck hanging by a string! GHETTO!
Brigit ripped on me for my AWESOME "shelling" abilities! Well, look who LOVED it! My kids thought that the shells I brought back for them and the coconut were the BEST presents EVER! Boo ya BRIGIT!

How Spring Break Has Changed...



Spring Break 02---I was so anxious I had to take
valium to get on the airplane.
Spring 09---I was anxious that my kid was going to poop on the airplane.

Spring Break 02---Our legs were cleanly shaved every day.
Spring Break 09---We were lucky if our armpits got attention.

Spring Break 02---Vacation was actually vacation, NO working out!
Spring Break 09----I wore a pedometer every day to make sure I got 10,000 steps in.

Spring Break 02---Brigit was at the airport to welcome me with signs.
Spring Break 09---I was lucky Brigit remembered to pick me up.

Spring Break 02---We were drinking cocktails on the beach.
Spring Break 09----Our kids were drinking cocktails on the beach!

Spring Break 02---Bikinis all around and we were looking mighty fine.
Spring Break 09---Hello Mamma's dairy farm... and can you say stretch marks!

Spring Break 02---We spent getting as tan as possible, reading gossip magazines, and napping!
Spring Break 09---We spent walking the babies, to lull them to sleep, and searching for shells for the boys at home.

Spring Break 02---We spent blasting music in the car, screaming at the top of our lungs.
Spring Break 09---There was plenty of screaming going on in the car, and it wasn't coming from us!

Spring Break 02---Coffee was a luxury.
Spring Break 09---Coffee was a necessity.

Spring Break 02---We had a blast!
Spring Break 09---We had each other!

WHAT A GREAT TRIP!  Perfect weather, wonderful hosts, and well behaved kids!  A nice treat, during the cold winter! See you back in MN!  Brrrrrr!

Another Fun Day in the Sun!

Another great day in Florida!  We had awesome weather, and found an even better beach!  Our day consisted of two long walks, 3 hours of naps on the beach by the kids, Gossip Magazines, and lots of sun!  Tomorrow we are gearing up for more of the same!  I'm going to enjoy it, because on Sunday, it's back to reality for me!  Brrrrrrrrr!


Under our umbrella...best investment ever!
The sign said "No nude sunbathing on the beach!"  Naughty kids!
How cute is she?

Spring Break '09


MaryCate thinking "is this guy gonna cramp my style?"


The question has been posed, what are you doing in FL....the better question is, what aren't we doing. Weather update from your meteorologist Katie Leaver: Sunny and 82 all day today, perfect beach weather for the 4 beach bums. As I walk along the beach with Andrew in his cute little swim trunks and his sun hat, people say "Oh what a cute baby," to which I reply "Spring break just ain't what it used to be, but it is a hell of a lot better than snow storm they are experiencing back home." Our original plan was to head to the Twins vs. Yankees game tomorrow, but we've decided that nothing is better than planting our "sexy" post baby bodies back on the beach...watch out Sanibel Island here we come. Enjoy the pics, more to come tomorrow night!!
