Florida Weekend

This past weekend, Joe and I flew down to New Orleans, rented a car, and went over to Destin to stay for a few days. We had a wonderful weekend. We went to the OU-Florida State game in Tallahassee on Saturday. It seemed that everything went our way all weekend from good seats on the plane to not having to wait for dinner anywhere, etc. The only "bad" thing was there were marine pests in the water at the beach. I rarely get in the water anyway so it didn't really matter to me. Here's a picture of a jellyfish on the beach. We marked it with a stick so someone walking along wouldn't step on it.

Here's a picture of Joe and I in the stadium. Our church youth director was sitting down about 2 rows in front of us and Michael's mother was sitting about 10 rows up and one section over. I saw her but she didn't see me.
This was supposed to be a couples weekend with our friends that all go to OU/TX together, but none of the other wives ended up coming because of last minute commitments with school-aged children or trials coming up, etc. Here are the guys together outside the stadium. We didn't sit together nor did we see each other the rest of the weekend. Didn't even stay in the same town.

One night, we drove over to Panama City Beach and went to dinner at Pier Park. Fun place!

Saw a Texas pimp-mobile while we were there. Can you see the big horns on the front of the car?
One of the other marine pests were blue crabs that seemed to be all in the water the first day we got there. This one was dead on the beach.
We ate at all our favorite restaurants and I ate lots of seafood. I loved my weekend with just Joe and me. It's the first one we've taken since shortly after Kristen was born (before Kaitlyn) - about 22 years. I have lots of other pictures on my phone camera but currently don't have any way to get them from the phone to my computer.
