Cheetah in Florida

Dave and I just got back from our trip to Marco island Florida.  It was a wonderful break from the busyness of work and kids.  We took Lauren's little Cheetah along for the ride this year and she saw some amazing things.  By the end of the trip I was aching for the kids and for our home, but it was lots of fun.  We drove wave runners in the ocean, went parasailing, had lots and lots of food and read some books.  As always it's great to be home.

Cheetah watching the parasailing.  She didn't actually get to go up.  She's too small and might have fallen off.

The wave runners.  No pics of us on them because I didn't dare bring the camera going 55 miles an hour in the ocean. So super fun.

We had some great times in Florida.  I'm glad even if the kids couldn't come that Cheetah was able to enjoy the memories with us.  Big thanks to Tonya who came and stayed with our kids (along with her 5) and to my Mom for watching our little Kurt!
