A Weekend in Paradise

The morning view from the condo we shared with Beth and David.

Todd and I had a weekend getaway to Amelia Island, FL. Two of my dearest friends from college married each other (FINALLY!) so we joined in the celebration. Ladybug stayed with her Mimi and PapaFish and had a ball.

My best friend Beth and her husband David's flight was delayed coming out of Chicago, so Todd and I had some time to kill. We checked out Walmart, Gander Mountain, and Old Navy. Exciting times. Then we realized there was a Budweiser plant just down the road. And wouldn't you know it? THEY GIVE TOURS. Tours that end with a hospitality suite where each guest is entitled to 2 - 12oz samples. Hot Dog!

Afterward we took some photos with Larry, the Clydesdale:

Kate giving Larry a kiss for luck!

We took this shot for my Dad, Larry. :) Sorry Dad. The horse's bum made it into the shot. Haha.

And Todd with his head up Larry's...yeah. You get the picture.

******************

Saturday we checked out the 45th Annual Amelia Island Shrimp Festival which was less about shrimp and more about arts and crafts before heading down to the beach to sun our OH so pale selves.

Here is my BFF Beth and me sunning ourselves before the wedding and watching our goofy husbands play in the waves. Thank goodness those two yahoos get along so well!

And here is the bride and groom during their first dance! Congratulations Megan and Jay...

And finally, the Three Amigos...reminds me of Senior Year.
