Florida for the 4th

So we went home for the fourth of July, well my home at least! Nathan went out fishing and was able to reel in a Bonita (I think that is right!)

The trek out to sea was cut a little short with some incoming weather but he at least got a small taste of the Florida life. We went out on Junior's boat for the fireworks extravaganza and even had a boarding by the coast guard. They were out collecting drunks and losers so we were left to go about our business.

Emilie and Katie came along and Katie was nervous that Junior was going to get taken away by the police boat! Pretty funny! Also we get back to the dock and after we get Katie unloaded, Grandpa asked Katie what she thought of the fireworks, her response? "Boring." We could have got her 99 cents worth of sparklers and she would have been more impressed!

We also went wedding location hunting with Homer. He did most of the pre scouting the week before we came and we spent Wednesday and Thursday checking out his picks. We really liked alot of the places and are excited with the choice of the Jupiter Beach Resort and Spa.

The date is January 24, 2009! Now comes the fun part of working on the guest lists to narrow it down to a reasonable number. Fun fun fun! We are going to Morehead this weekend to talk to the Kentucky folks to get their plans rolling and see who can and can't make it.


On the housing front we are still quite furniture-less but thanks to the rents now have a new set of linens for the bed that we don't yet own....hopefully this will be solved this afternoon since Nathan got his George Bush money and I found a deal on a mattress and boxsprings! I will keep you posted as we make the house look less like homeless people have taken it over and more like we actually live there and have a brain in our head and jobs!

Hope everyone had a Happy 4th! Cheers!
