Fins weekend

Every year we look forward to Fins weekend. This year Sheri came out to watch the kids while we enjoyed a kid-free weekend down in South Beach. It was soooo nice. I can't thank her enough. I knew my kids were in good hands so I didn't worry at all...which I'm notorious for.
It started off with the Dolphin's awards banquet Thursday night down at Turnberry where they were golfing the next day. John woke up early and golfed while I slept in, worked out, lounged by the pool, and then hit the Aventura mall to prove that I do enjoy shopping when I don't have kids with me. Then I met up with John and we headed down to South Beach for the captain's party.

John and I covered in stone crab residue.

I made Dan take a prom-style picture of us before we headed into the torrential downpour.
Look how humid it was!
The next day we woke up and went fishing. We were lucky because we were on a larger boat which means less chance of getting seasick. It was a very slow day of fishing. We caught four tiny fish and this big one which I totally forgot about until I went through my pictures. I didn't want to take away fishing opportunities for the men who spent money to fish so I spent most of my time on top with Captain Casey enjoying the sea breeze.

Captain Casey who kept calling me "Ashley" but I didn't correct him.

Luckyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! Ah, what I wouldn't give for a get-away with Dan right now. You look adorable in your outfits. I always wonder where you shop. Where did you get the dress and yellow cardigan get-up? How do you find things like that when you have THREE BOYS to shop with???? I don't get it. Please, fill me in... ;)
