st pete recap...

so here's the st. pete recap... which honestly isn't too exciting because I didn't take nearly enough pictures... the flight from atlanta to tampa wasn't too bad and we landed and got our rental car -- the man behind the counter at budget was "nice enough" to upgrade us.... what did he upgrade us to... oh yes. grandma's car --

we were driving around in true florida style... grandma style. DJ kept telling everyone he was borrowing his grandpa's car -- he thought it was really funny... I on the other hand, got over the joke real quick. other than the sunset pictures I already shared I sucked at taking pictures -- I did get some of all of  us at the wedding on saturday night...

DJ had a great time with his fraternity brothers and I had a fun time laughing at them all... It was also amusing to hear grown men call each other by their college nicknames. good times all around.

sunday and monday we spent with my mom and had some great food, relaxing times and just caught up. I also realized I didn't take one picture of my mom/with my mom all weekend. I'm the worst.  we did help  her pick out a new laptop and set it up so I feel like I get some good daughter points there [when in reality DJ did most of the work, so he just gets son-in-law points]. It's so refreshing to me and relieving to see how amazing DJ and my mom get along - she has never had anything negative to say about him [which is rare with my mother] and I'm pretty sure she loves him more than me [but he is the nicer one in our pair so I can't really blame her]. anyways, all in all a great trip with great friends and a fun time catching up with my mom. I'm so excited to be back in Wilmington in ONE week to celebrate our last wedding of 2011 [yay tiff & josh!] and to catch up with lots of friends... I'm not going to lie, I'm also looking forward to this weekend of doing nothing [first weekend in almost two months that we're not traveling somewhere - crazy].

...in completely unrelated news, it's 10:40am and I've already eaten all of my lunch. be jealous.
