Off to Florida...

Due to the devastating news about my sister, we had to quickly head off to Florida, where she lived. It most certainly wasn't a vacation, so I didn't take as many pictures as I should have, but here are a few.

My crazy mom, siblings, and Alexis, trying out the air mattress!

Sweet Bella and her buddy Miles relaxing together

The baby whisperer, AKA, Uncle Matt

Spreading some of Karrie's ashes, at her favorite place...the beach

Alexis Grace

Spitting image of her mom!

The moon that night...it shined to make a cross

Unfortunately, my little niece Kaehla had no interest in getting her picture taken. As horrible as the situation was, it was great to spend time with Alexis and Kaehla. They both look so much like Karrie, it's crazy!

Miles' first road trip!

And oh what a road trip it was! My good friend Kerri and I were headed to Toledo to see our friend Tiffany (who just had surgery) and Erin, who had her daughter the day after Miles was born. So, you're thinking Toledo...no big deal right? Normally it wouldn't be, especially since a bunch of my friends went to school there, but we should have known better than to follow Tiff's directions! (We love ya Tiff, but giving directions is not one of your strong points!) So, after Miles screaming for a solid 30 minutes, and getting lost in the ghetto...and I mean GHETTO, as their streets didn't even have names, just letters, lol...we finally made it!! Tiff is recovering quickly, and hopefully she'll be back to normal in no time! We're just happy she's doing so well!

Tiff and Miles

(notice Miles staring...he found Kerri very entertaining!)

Still staring at Kerri!

Miles already taking a liking to Reese

They even had their arms linked!

Smiling at Kerri!

Long day...catching some zzz's together!

and ready to go home!

Luckily Miles didn't cry on the way home, but that's because I ended up sitting in the back with him while Kerri took the wheel. I so wish this child liked the car...sigh! At least we all made it home in one piece, lol!
