Right after Greer's graduation, we had the pleasure of flying down to Key West to spend the week with Jeff's brother, Kyle and his family. It was great fun and we were so glad to get a good visit in with them!
Presley
LOVED her cousins, Charlie and Greta. I think the feeling was mutual--they lavished her with lots of love and attention and were very anxious and excited to help me take care of her (they're going to be good helpers when their baby sister arrives in September!).
We had a lot of fun cruising the island on our bicycles. P was too little to fit in the seat on the back of Jeff's bike so, she spent the week strapped to Daddy and "flying" around town. She LOVED it! Jeff got such a kick out of hearing her jabber and squeal with delight and he sure turned a lot of heads about town!
They fun was almost more than P could take...
Our days usually consisted of a bike ride and beach excursion in the morning, followed by lunch and an afternoon nap, and an evening bike ride, beach excursion, dip in the hot tub, getting the kids to bed, and a late dinner for the adults and visiting. It was so relaxing and so much fun!
"Momma, did you see that lady in the butt-floss!?!"
No hot-tubbing for Presley but, she loved plastering her face against the window to watch the other kids!
Presley was so good the whole week. She just kind of went with the flow. She loved the beach and the water (although, she demonstrated a love for sand-eating that kept me on a very large sheet for most of the week), took some great naps, went to bed early, and generally loved being on vacation with her Momma and Daddy! She didn't really enjoy flying this time, though. As we took off, she kind of flopped back in my lap and got this look of her face like, "Ahh, what's happening to me!?!? Thankfully, she fell asleep pretty quick after that!
No vacation would be complete without some delicious eats. Including the infamous key lime pie from Blue Heaven. It was mighty sweet but, mighty tasty!
Our last night we treated ourselves to dinner out at Blue Heaven and, while we weren't too impressed with the food, the atmosphere was cool and the company was excellent! Plus, we were all entertained with Greta's feats of gastric capacity--home-girl can eat!
To end our vacation, we took a nice walk down Duval Street. Presley slept though most of it--face it, after the drag queens, nothing else was as exciting!
We did find a lovely live band playing out by the water and were thoroughly entertained by Greta and Charlie's dancing. Jeff has a video of Charlie's sweet moves that I'll post--he has his Dad's moves for sure!
