Blog Post Slacker

Well, it's been quite awhile since a good old blog post has appeared and I guess I have felt rather lazy so far in the new year. We have also slowed down our activities quite a bit after Christmas and we have been enjoying our weekends staying close to home.
Drew's parents will be visiting us this weekend and then we don't have much planned until April. For Spring Break, Jena will be going to New York, D.C. and Philadelphia with a tour group that caters to exchange students spending the year in America. This is an opportunity of a lifetime for her and we are so excited for her to get this awesome experience. She will be gone 6 days and 7 nights.
I will be heading out to Louisville to visit for Spring Break so I am looking forward to some gorgeous weather (we hope of course...with the way things have been going with the weather around there lately, anything is possible). Drew will be hanging here enjoying some peace and quiet with the house to himself for the week.
Below are some pictures taken a few weekends ago. We took Jena on a little canoe trip down the Hillsborough River; lots of gators, turtles and birds that day (click on the pics to enlarge them...see if you can spot the gator). The weather was so amazing. I think she enjoyed it!
