Life Laid Bear

A Beach Weekend

Living so close to the beach, you would expect to find me there more often than I really am. It's the porcelain skin and whatnot. You know those times where you come off of the beach looking as red as a lobster. Well that is me all the time. So when my mom booked a cabin just 30 minutes from our house, I had to say yes. Of course with SPF 75 in hand. So this past weekend, we headed out with my parents and Kyle's parents for a short but sweet beach trip. The cabins were beautiful, the weather was perfect and the company was excellent. 

Weekend Trip & new addition

This past Friday we headed over to Jacksonville to spend the night with my parents before I went to Orlando to try on some bridesmaid dresses and meet the other bridesmaids. It was a really nice drive, and of course the pups were in tow. They are so silly on long drives. Long being a whole two and a half hours. 

Side note: Have you tried the Starbucks Valencia Orange? So good!

Can I see mommy?

 

This little one insists on sitting right in my lap the entire time. 

The trip is pretty much a straight shot down Interstate 10. And is 99.5 % all trees. So the scenery is a little lacking. We don't mind because we talk about a whole bunch of nothing, and play silly games. By the time we are done, the drive is already over. On Sunday, we went to Repticon because I have told Kyle for almost a year now that he could have a bearded dragon. So well... we ended up coming home with a new addition to The Williams Family.

Her name is Kilgharrah. I am a huge fan of the BBC version of Merlin, and of course the dragon from that shows name is Kilgharrah. Which means "The Great Dragon". It just sort of fit like a glove. So help us in welcoming our new member to the family. We are one pet away from a zoo over here. 

Thomasville, GA

Thomasville is only about 25 minutes from Tallahassee, so it is an easy Saturday trip. It is just such a cute place to stop and stay a while. We went on Saturday for some shopping, food, and wine. It is just the perfect day trip.
