We had been looking forward to our spring vacation for a very long time!! For almost a year we had been talking about and planning to spend our time with our wonderful friends the Burrows!! Okay, so we didn't end up going back to Jamaica like we had talked about--we will save that for another time!!
We were not able to leave for Jacksonville until Sunday morning, so our vacation started with the arrival of Nick and Keri Friday night! We don't get to see Nick and Keri nearly enough, so we took the little bit of time that we could get with them. Friday was Nick's birthday so the four of us went out to eat at Miyami (a Japanese Steakhouse here in town), and had a great time. After dinner we introduced Keri (she is originally from Michigan) to Harris Teeter, she had never been in one before. We had a big time doing a little grocery shopping!! The only person besides immediate family to baby-sit Isabella so far, is a girl by the name of Megan--she does a wonderful job!! Thanks Megan for keeping her so that we could have a wonderful double date!! It reminded us of our ABC days!!

Saturday morning we continued to celebrate Nick with a birthday breakfast of pancakes and turkey bacon!! After breakfast the boys worked in the yard and the girls hung out inside. That afternoon there was a tailgating event at church. Everyone took their own food and cooked and then went inside to hear a Christian comedian/singer--who was hilarious!! Our neighbors the Hopkins went with us!! Emma Ray and Isabella get along like they have known each other forever!! They are so sweet to watch!
