Wow, Let's Do A Little Catching Up!

Okay, so it's been 2 very busy months since our last post, so I better fill everybody in!

First of all, my mom and dad came to visit in December and we had a great time! They stayed for about 6 days and we went all over: The Everglades was our first day (I think this was their favorite--my mom and dad are totally into traveling to see natural land formations and places that are unique to different states. Hence, I have memories of going on vacations to Carlsbad Caverns, The Badlands of South Dakota, The Grand Canyon, Death Valley, Yosemite, Yellowstone, Devil's Tower, Devil's Golf Course, Devil's Gate, Devil's Postpile....hmmm, why are there so many that were named after the DEVIL?? Haha...probably because those were the coolest formations....now it sounds like I'm saying the Devil is cool...I better stop now.) The next day was Fort Lauderdale Beach and Nova, where we met up with Steve for the Grand Optometery Tour. Then we did Vizcaya, Coral Gables and Miami Beach (I'm told Miami Beach pictures at sunset didn't turn out :( so disappointing, because that was a beautiful one!) The next day we went down to Bahia Honda Key, 30 miles north of Key West and a great beach! The highlight of the day, though, was DELICIOUS Frozen Key Lime Pie on a Stick Covered in Chocolate! It's to die for! Check it out...Largo Cargo, in Key Largo.

Anyway, it was a lot of sightseeing in a short time but it was lots of fun and my mom and dad said it was actually very relaxing--a real vacation before they are off to their mission....

Yes! They got their call! They're going toooooooo....

Recife, Brazil! A 18 month Temple Mission. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recife

Well, that's as much as I can do in one post!
