Monday, November 1 - I can't believe it is November already! Nick and Katelynn started their week of fun school days getting ready for the Sadie's Dance this Saturday. They are super cute! :) At mom and dad's house last night, Zack stubbed his toe. He was so sad about it so we put ice on it and I held him for a while. This is what we woke up to this morning! It is black and blue!! Poor guy, I'm sure it is broken...right before his last soccer game!
Tuesday, November 2 - It's been hard. I've been fragile. My friends know this and Jen Moon dropped off this box of sunshine for me. It helped but I am still in a pretty dark place. I am not eating much, sleeping well, or spending much of my day without crying. It's been a really rough few days. :( I appreciated her reaching out to me though. It was very kind!
Wednesday, November 3 - Reunited and it feels so good!!! Mom, Jenni, and I hopped on a plane at the crack of dawn this morning and jumped across the entire country to Florida. There is a super funny story about me walking off the jetway with those two carry-on bags. One is Jenni's and I *thought* the other one was mine! It was not! 😂 Oops! After a full day of travel, we made it to Florida and met up with Kenny, Katie, Kam, and Kayla! It is SOOOO nice to be together!
Thursday, November 4 - We got up at the crack of dawn (really, it was like 4:30 am Utah time) to get to Universal Studio's Island of Adventure first thing. We had a great day riding rides, eating treats, and just being together. Kam was my little buddy and held my hand since I didn't have Ricki there to hold my hand during the "scary parts". Seriously, he was my little attachment all day and I loved every. single. minute! Oh, and K&K are pretty much super models!! When we left the park, we hit up VooDoo donuts. They are so famous, we just had to! :) They were really yummy! (Shhh, we had a donut BEFORE we had dinner. What happens on girl's trip stays on girl's trip!)
Friday, November 5 - Today was a bit more chill than yesterday. We had a relaxing morning and ate our leftover donuts for breakfast. We went and watched Kenny pump some iron in their apartment's super nice gym. Then, we went to lunch at First Watch, a yummy breakfast/lunch place. Mom's main goal for coming to Florida was to get Christmas shopping done so we went to the mall then Target to get that done. Great news, she did it! She got them all done! Kenny and Katie were so sweet and cooked us a yummy dinner. I didn't help with dinner...I played with the kids! We colored pictures. :) After dinner, we played a few rounds of Pictionary before us girls headed to the hotel. What a great day!!
Saturday, November 6 - We spent the (windy and freezing cold day) on the beach! We met up with Uncle Dan and Aunt Carolyn there, hunted for sharks teeth, sat on the beach for about an hour, and then ate lunch together. It was so nice to see them! I haven't seen Uncle Dan since Grandpa Howard passed away 18 years ago! Time flies! Then, we went to a mini golf course that has live alligators. You golf the 18 holes and then get to feed the alligators! It was seriously so cool! Katie had to work tonight so she left early then after golfing, we went to dinner at the Steak n' Shake. This is where we said goodbye to Kenny and the kids. Man, that was hard! It's just so weird not knowing when we will see them again. Of course, we had to get our annual Kenny Christmas kiss. :) Tonight, Nick went to his first official school dance with Katelynn Romero. So cute!
Sunday, November 7 - And again, we're home. :( We had some craziness getting home. Jenni ended up on an earlier flight than us from Denver to Salt Lake so we sat in Denver for 3 hours while Jenni sat in Salt Lake waiting for us to come in for 2 hours. Regardless, we all made it home safe and sound. What a trip! It was quick but jam-packed with fun!
