Lately

We were road warriors last weekend. This was definitely our longest road trip yet, and we had a great time. We went to Pensacola to see the Greenes and loved seeing Alex and Robyn, too. We went skeet shooting with the boys' toys, and the girls were actually pretty decent! We went to the beach Saturday night for dinner. It's beautiful out there! We scoped out some beach houses and yachts we'd like to own one day and took a stroll down by the water. Stacey had never really seen sea oats, but they are absolutely beautiful close up! Robyn collected a tar ball for her classroom, and we saw a late night clean up crew on the beach. We spoke with them about how clean up is going, and they had really positive things to say. Jimmy Buffet's new Margaritaville Hotel just opened up complete with a Landshark bar! We hope the gulf gets its visitors back soon.

Pensacola was just a stop on our way up to Jackson, MS for the wedding of dear friends to us- John and Anna Clemmer. We got to see Stacey's college roommates and stayed with the Thomas couple! Stacey misses those girls so much, and being together felt like old times again. We missed Brian, but other than that- it felt like the whole gang was together! How about we all go to the beach this spring before the Pages experience PCSing (did I use that term correctly?) and move to El Paso?

The wedding was beautiful. It was the first wedding Zach and I have been to since we got married, so that made it extra special. We heard the vows and remembered the promise we had made to each other a little over one month before. As always, seeing friends was such a joy! And instead of saying “see you later”, we were able to tell them that we'll be back in Starkville in one month for the first MSU football game! We're so excited to get back home!
