We're home!!

We returned before the sun came up at 5:30 a.m. this morning!  We drove through the night because (1) we missed our new home, (2)  we had lots to do before getting back to work, and (3) the furniture store called and said the rest of our furniture was being delivered today!  We originally planned to be home sometime tonight, but it worked out better this way. 

For those of you not in Florida, here's what you missed...

-The first three days:  God blessed us with an abundance of rain showers.  They say rain showers come and go in Florida, then the sky gets beautifully sunny again....ha, well...not while I'm in town!  Surprisingly, it did not bother me one bit.  It was MAJOR good luck.  This wasn't just rain on my wedding day, it was a monsoon!  And if it didn't rain, we would have faced the opposite problem---heatwave or 100+ temperatures.  The day was wonderful.  It was such a special time for us and we are glad to have shared it with our closest family and friends.

-The honeymoon:  We visited a few places on our own, but wanted to spend lots of time with the people that traveled the distance for us.  One day, we went to a 4D moving theater and Ripley's Believe It or Not Titanic Ship with John and Mary.  Another day we laid on the beach with Troy, Mal, and Rob.  Every night we picked a different restaurant and met everyone there.  (Eating at new places is my favorite part of vacation!)  And on the last day, we met the Waddell's in Destin! 

Now it's time to get back to reality, which we are looking forward to!  We still have our home reception on August 6th, but until then we have lots to do at the new house and in my classroom.  :)
