My brother Jeremiah and his girlfriend, Amy, and Julie came to visit for ten days. We ate A TON and played a lot. Here are two of the events that we did. We had 8th row at the Braves game. Don't ask who they played or what the score was....I don't know. But the funnel cake was tasty.
Then we went down to Palm Coast to mom and Dad's beach house for about four days. We even got a short visit from Amanda and Jonah. Shell seeking was the highlight.
Then Jason and I drove to Alabama to go cruise Florida. Don't ask. We were intended to go to the Bahamas. We ended up really enjoyed Key west though. This is in front of Ernest Hemingway's home.
A direct descendant of some of his famous six-toed cats. Really. It happens to be taking down an innoecnt bird in this picture. But six-toed nonetheless.
The house again.
Bringing sexy to the beach. :) I know I know. Irresistible.
I thought this structure was really cool. It featured a garden inside.
The famous Banyan trees that adorn Key west. They grow horizontally instead of vertically. They were soooo cool.
Truman's little white house. Almost every president and several other nobodies( like Thomas Edison...you may have heard of him) have stayed here. There was a ton of history here so Jason HAD to stop by.
Our dining table group. I am the tan one in the middle. :) We had so much fun just relaxing and eating and sleeping. Did I mention Jason won the ping pong tournament??? I HAD to mention that to make it look like we actually did something on our cruise. That was in between naps. And our kids got the ultimate care from Grandma Allred. She even had their laundry done when we picked them up. That's what I call babysitting!

I want to know why you didn't go to the Bahamas!! They Keys are so overrated!! :) You look really skinny...I know you're pregnant, but have you lost weight??
you're hilarious. love the "irresistible" pic. keys west actually looks really nice and beautiful. i'm sure jason was eating it up.
fun fun!! it's crazy how much stuff we do--i feel spoiled and i didn't even get to go on the cruise...
Oh my gosh! Looks like tons of fun! I am dying for a beach right now!! I had no idea you were pregnant! Congrats!!!
You took a cruise of Florida! Hum...I think that Florida is a little overrated :) You look really cute (and super tan). I do like your pictures...except the ones of me and my big bum. do i really look like that?? good thing Jonah is cute!
You know what? My Memorial Day totally sounds like something that would happen to the Allreds...so funny. I have to laugh about it. I have lost a little weight since I started the challenge- maybe 3 lbs?? I think my body is (finally) just re-shaping itself since giving birth, which can account for more than weight loss. Although I still have a few more pounds to lose and one more pant size. That is interesting that you're losing weight...are you throwing up? Nauseous? Thats kind of nice...I gained more with my third than my first two. I can't believe how little Katie gained...I wouldn't know though since she's the WORST blogger EVER!! :)
wha? I didn't know you were taking a cruise. How fun! We are coming sometime in the summer to visit. Looking forward to seeing you!
what a fun trip! anywhere warm makes for a nice getaway wherever it is. :) and how nice to have some time just the two of you!
I love cruises. Your pictures were great. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun! When are you due?
Way fun trip. We need to talk all about it some time. And yes, Rachel - thanks for the dig! :) I AM proud to be the worst blogger ever. I can only assume you meant me. Given the context of the name Katie in that sentence. I don't know why I avoid blogging so much. SOrry. But why are you talking about my weight gain anyway? Sheesh! Is that all I am to you? Some sort of circus freak??? Claire - I love you, I miss you. I can't wait to see you this summer. Yippee! I just wish we were going on a glorious cruise together instead of just UT. But whatever. I'll take it.
