Our Florida Trip: March 10-15, 2010

Summer's sister-in-law, Kristin is from Florida so we decided to take a trip with them.  We got some rain and wind but other than that, the weather was good (while it snowed back home in Utah!). 

We saw the famous Suwannee River...
(The pole to the left marks the different flood levels by year)

We went to the Gatornationals at the Gainesville Raceway (which is the main reason why we made this trip)...
(Dang, that's fast!!!)

We went to Shired on the gulf....
Jon caught 2 fidler crabs...

We survived the wind there (keep in mind, it's hurricane season!)...

We met a huge cat (he weighed in at 42 lbs about 3 years ago)...
(This is Olivia doing sign language for "cat.")

We hung out with Kristin's family at their house in Old Town (where we stayed)...

But, unfortunately, our vacation had to come to an end...
These are just a few pictures that we took.  Jon had never been to Florida and it had been 6 years since Summer had been there.  We had a lot of fun and ate a ton of good food.  We hope to go back again! Hopefully sooner than later!

Looks like you guys had a blast. Vacations are the best, the only bad part is at some point you have to come home :(

Summer, we had SO much fun with you guys! I still feel bad that we didn't get to do all that I had originally wanted, but I'm glad that you guys still had a good time. Such a cute blog!!
