Disappointing Race!!!

What a disappointing Daytona 500!!! First off, neither one of our drivers made it into victory lane!! Second, the first half of the race was the "taxicab 500" and the end of the race was caution, caution, caution!!! The Budweiser Shootout and Duels were much better!!! (of course I am a little biased because Jr won both of those races!!!) Let's hope the race is better next week!!!

As for us, we had a GREAT weekend!! Surprisingly, we stayed in Florence ALL weekend! We found some new walking/bike riding trails near the house and went 3 times! We had a great time exploring the trails - until one dead-ended and we had to go all the way back! But it was fun to get out and enjoy the fresh air together!! Friday night we decided to grill out and eat/watch tv in the backyard! We had a roaring campfire - and the burgers Adam made were delicious!! And then we made homemade icecream - in the backyard, without electricity!!! We have a Play and Freeze icecream maker - all you do is toss/spin the ball for about 30 minutes, and all of the sudden you have icecream!!! And it was really good! We had a great night with Mandy and Dave, our newest neighbors who have quickly become some of our best friends down here in Florence. Tomorrow is back to work..... but then next Saturday we leave on our cruise!!! woohoo!! We leave out of Jacksonville and go to Key West and Nassau. It will be great times!! And then Mom and Dad will be here for a fun 4 day weekend at the beach!!! (I guess it is a good thing we stayed in town this weekend!!!)

Hope you all have a great week!!! Here are a few more recent pics!!!

What has happened to little Peyton- I guess I can't pick him up anymore to be held in his favorite position!! Hope you have a great week. Look forward to seeing you soon!! Can't wait for the fire, shopping, great food, and the beach--and to see you all of course. Glad you had fun on the trails. Love You.
