June Visitors

Happy Birthday to my mom! She celebrated her birthday at our house.
Elijah and Madeline (one of my cousin's little girls) playing.

My cousin Erin and her family (including my aunt and uncle) came to Florida for a week vacation at Disney. They came over on June 14th (my mom's birthday) to have dinner with us.

My childhood friend Heather was in Florida visiting with another friend. We decided to meet at the beach and visit for a while.

This nest picture was taken at the Citrus Tower. It is tourist attraction in our small town. It is basically a tower that takes you up to a room that lets you look at the city. They say you use to be able to see Disney World from up there. We decided to go back this winter and see if you can see farther.

My mom got Elijah a kickboard and he is ready to put it to use.





After picking my mom up at the Tampa airport we went to the Tampa Zoo. It was super nice and we got in FREE with our Louisville Zoo passes.

In June we had lots of visitors. First it was Troy's siser, niece, and dad. Then my mom came to visit for 10 days. Then finally we had some friends from Louisville and their two daughters come to visit.

Kristen Graduates from High School


Troy and his three children. Hard to believe the girls are getting to be all grown up.

Kristen graduated from High School on June 5th. We had a graduation party for her atour house that evening.

Troy and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary on June 4, 2009. Troy's sister happened to be in town for Kristen's gratuation so she watched Elijah so we could go out to dinner to celebrate. We went out and had all you can eat crab legs at a yummy seafood restaurant near our house.

Living it up in Florida


We have now lived in Florida two months. It has been a BIG adjustment for us but not too bad. We have stayed very busy! Elijah and I have been on a couple of Troy's trips, which is fun getting out of the house, they are like mini vacations. I have joined a couple of mom's group which is allowing me to meet people. We have been attending a church regularly but they don't have Sunday School which is so wierd. Finding a church has to have been the hardest thing for us. What is up with NO Sunday School. They do have small groups that meet outside of the church at night but that requires us to pay a babysitter. It is also hard because I have to find a babysitter and Troy is not always home to go to small group with me. Anyway, June is going to be a busy month. We have lots of visitors coming one after another. We are going to have 5 whole days throughout the month without overnight guests. I am excited to see friends and family but it is a bit over whelming that everyone decided to come in the month of June.


There is a fun splash park and play ground in Orlando that is fun to go to.

Easter morning we went to Church and then to St. Pete Beach.


Troy's first trip was to Miami. He had to go for a week so Elijah and I went with him.





Elijah's first time swinging on a big boy swing. This is our Neighborhoods park.




My Best Friend Shannon and her family planned a trip to Disney two years ago. We got to see them three different days while they were down here. This is the boys at our house playing.



We bought season tickets to Sea World. Our first trip was with Shannon and her family.





Our second trip to the Miami Zoo, this time Troy went with Elijah and I.




Troy's oldest, Kristen, is graduating on June 5th. This is right before she and her boyfriend went to Prom.
