The above picture is of me kissing a dolphin named Lenny at Discovery Cove when I went to Florida with my Aunt Connie, cousin Adam, and my parents in February of 2007. I thought it would be a great occassion to post it up here, since last night my parents randomly decided that they'd like to go to Florida at the end of the month if my dad can get the time off from work. IT's a slight chance though because my dad's one out of the two bosses at his work, and the other guy recently broke his leg and is out for medical reasons. But oh how I love spontanaety..
On another note, I went shopping with my parents today. My dad bought us all some really nice snowshoes, and boots and gloves to go with them as a late Christmas gift. I'm really looking forward to setting out for the trails with them and a bunch of my aunts, uncles and cousins one of these days. We'll have a blast! Then we went out to lunch at Panera Bread which was packed to it's maximum hold but still absolutely delicious, and hit up the mall to do a few more returns. Abbie and her mother were there, so I shopped around and visited with them for a bit as well. I ended up with some really nice iceskates from Dicks Sporting Goods, and 2 shirts and a scarf from Charlotte Russe. I also bought my friend Ashley a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle t-shirt because I know she's really wanted one for a long time.
Tomorrow after church I'm probably going iceskating with some friends.. I can't wait to use my try out my new skates. They're beautiful :)

I absolutely adore that photo! When I went to Florida a few years ago I got to go swimming with dolphins too (: That's such a great experience! I hope that you can go there again.
It sounds like you had a successful day shopping! Hiking with your family should be really fun. Mmmm, Panera, yum! That was nice of you to get your friend the TMNT shirt too (:
Have fun with your new skates!
cute picture!
congrats with the shopping and late christmas gifts!
also, i saw the picture on the right, the 'best friends forever' picture, and i adore how you two are opposites.

Aw this post is just lovely!! :) Your dad is so sweet! Love daddys. :) && that picture is uber cute <3
Sorry it's been a few days! Blogger wouldn't let me comment you >:(
That picture is spectacular. I've never been swimming with dolphins, only a shark, and you can't really kiss them ;)
Ice skating! We have a really tacky, crowded ring near where I live. I went on it last year and everyone was so rude. I want to go skating either on a real frozen lake (which we don't get here anymore) or a bigger, less crowded rink.
