Orlando, Florida

Last week Justin and I made a business trip to Florida. Other than work we also had a few days to enjoy what we thought was going to be sunny Florida :-) As it turned out, supposedly we got more rain during our first few days there than during Florida's three largest hurricanes combined! We had 15 inches of rain in three days and it still continues to rain. The day we arrived and the day we left were sunny so we thoroughly enjoyed what sun we had. Even though it was quite wet we still had a marvelous time together and felt like we were on a second honeymoon!





This was our adorable little rental car! I have always wanted a lime green bug and Justin was so tickled when he was able to get it for us :-)












Seaworld in the rain :-D

The dolphin show was our absolute favorite!

This is the car for the Boston Lobster restuarant. I just happened to notice it as we were driving by one evening and my wonderful husband graciously pulled over so that he could take my picture. Can you imagine driving this thing?!!

One evening Justin took me to a medival dinner show. I had never been to something like it before, but had always wanted to try one. We were given our black and white crowns and seated in the black and white section so that we could cheer for our knight while he fought against the evil green night. It was a lot of fun.



That's right...no utensils! We were served chicken, a baked potato, soup, and garlic bread which we had to eat with our hands just like Robin Hood!

Need I say more? :-)

Hey Bethany,

We sew our culottes using an out-of-print pattern.

The pattern is somewhat hard to find because it's copyright is 1978. :)

It's Simplicity #8391, and they are really easy to make!

It's well worth it to get this pattern! We have been very pleased with it.

God bless!
