June 28th

Well, today is our last day on our honeymoon! It is so hard to believe that the wedding and now our vacation is over. :(

This morning started off with an early morning walk on the beach. Dave took me to the "point of rocks". It's a beautiful area of the beach that is full of shells and large rocks. I really don't think I can explaing how many shells are covering this beach!!! It was really neat! After our walk we went back to our room to finish packing. We had to be out of our room by 9:30, but our plane didn't take off until after 6pm, so we decided to go shopping at the outlet mall in Ellenton. This place has a special meaning for Dave as his grandparents used to live in this city and his Grandma used to work at one of the stores in the outlet mall. We enjoyed strolling through the shops, picking up a few bargains along the way. My most priced souveneir from the trip is a brand new Coach purse and wallet! It's fabulous (if I do say so myself)!!!

The drive back was pretty easy and uneventful. We made it to the airport safely and found our gate. From that point on we just waited....and waited....and waited...for 4 hours! When we finally got on the plane, everything went smoothly and we were back in Houston before we knew it! Martha picked us up at the airport and drove us back to our new apartment!!! It was crazy to walk in the door since we only lived here for about 3 weeks before we left for WI! Anyway, we still love it and a big part of us was actually glad to be home!

I couldn't have asked for anything better than what this trip brought me...

-fun times with my family and friends in my home town

-the most amazing and beautiful wedding a girl could ever imagine

-a fun, exciting and relaxing trip to Florida with my new husband

-a glimpse into Dave's growing up while at Siesta Key

-and a beautiful apartment to come home to!

I couldn't be happier!
