I'm trying to be patient.

After my trip to Floridaaaaaaa, I can't wait for summer.

For pedicured toes.
For flip flops and sandals and espadrilles.
For walking around barefoot.
For sand between my toes (and in the bottom of my purse.)
For hair highlighted by the sun and freckles galore.
For lemonade and grilling and baseball and swimming.

I just can't wait.

A Cure for the Winter Blues

I heard from some of my college friends a few weeks ago.

They wanted to go somewhere warm.
And they wanted to know if I was game.


I was game, my friends. I was totally game.


And so, this past weekend, I hopped a plane to Florida to enjoy some sun.

no sun the first day... a little disappointing.

My lovely travel companions

Posing for pictures...

...before we had any of these...

...which led to some pictures like this...

... but we behaved ourselves for one of these!

Finally! A sunny day...

... on our last day. (Healy's luggage on the beach.)

All in all a wonderful trip!

So it was a great way to get rid of some of the Winter Blues...

But I might just need another trip come March!!
