As I've mentioned before, I have a money savvy-husband. So much so, in fact, that he got us a steal of a deal on a trip to Florida. It was so awesome to experience this great state which was even the homeplace of my husband when he was 9-11 years old.
We started it off with Gatorland. Probably my favorite park we went to. Not joking. Where else can you watch gator wrestling and get this close to these guys??

East Coast FL: Melbourne.
Christian in front of his childhood home (1994-1996ish?) on the LDS Church Ranch near Melbourne. Those years of Christian's childhood were filled with catching lizards and hanging them on their earlobes (especially Richard), catching frogs (especially Richard), petting armadillos, time in the swimming hole when there weren't alligators around (and then throwing grapefruits at those big scary beasts). Pretty cool life, huh?
Here's proof:



The house today looks a little different according to Christian, but the bikes in front look like they could be Christian, John, and Sarah's - and the dog(s) too - straight out of their childhood.

Oh and we're not done...more to come

What a great trip! I love all the old school photos & the sunny beach, that's a sight for my sore eyes!!!
