Spring 2010 Vacation---TN, LA, MS, AL, and FL

Just thought of adding some of my favorite photos of our Spring Vacation down South! It was so much fun, not to mention our riding in First Class! woo hoo! Talk about being LUCKY! Remember the koi fish we saw next to the Starbucks in Florida? Or how about having dinner at Bimini Bob's Restaurant in Daphne, Alabama! And the white sand beaches in Seaside, Florida and grabbing those seashells you love so much?! And grabbing your souvenir from the shop while Tata was checking us in at the SanDestin Hotel and Resort?! That palm tree necklace is the prettiest one I've ever seen. You sure know how to choose the coolest souvenir, don't you?!

I'll have to post more pictures later but I just wanted to recall some of the fun things we did on our trip. I think Tata and I really enjoyed the dinner in Florida where you ate almost all of the raw fish! We laughed so hard because you don't eat fish, remember? We laughed so hard just watching you chow down on all of it and thinking, you NEVER eat fish, but you will eat it raw? Now, that's a true Hawaiian if you ask me. :)

I think you'll agree seeing the alligators in Alabama was cool too! Or how about grabbing those fancy mardi gras masks in New Orleans, Louisiana? You love to swim. You love beaches, pools, anything with water. It was so hard to get you to go when it was getting dark. You even loved the pool in Florida that was in our sandestin resort, you know, the one with the dolphins?

Well, this much I know. I LOVE VACATIONS WITH US 3! It's so much FUN! I can't wait for the next one. I wonder where we will go next. Any ideas? :D

I love you my love!

love, Mama

A Poem Made Especially in New Orleans....

The Red and White Delight

Three spoons please is all it'll take

To make our tummys quit with ache.

We three grab and tub and pull

For this little delectable is much too cool!

Shiny glazed strawberries galore

I implore to "Give Me MORE!"

Creamy white topping with powdered sugar

Makes this delight an irresistable flavor

A cake a biscuit I can't quite decide

But we three know our desire to try

So Mama and Tata and I take a stare

Just before we devour this enticing glare!

YUM! Strawberry Shortcake in New Orleans at the Palace Cafe' April 2010.

A POEM FOR ANNA

Colored cotton candy clouds

dance for me I beg you now.

staring out the plane I see,

a rabbit running beckons me.

open wide and come inside,

less you be consumed by the upside down chicken that lay beside.

Yes, an upside chicken Anna dare she say,

up, up, up, high above the clouds I think I'll stay.

for it's colored cotton candy clouds I see,

now won't you join me in my creed.
