Nadia and Jules' Florida Vacay!

Nadia and I had an amazing Spring Break in the Florida! We went to the pool and the beach almost every day (it was rough!). We celebrated Jesus' Resurrection with my family, went shopping at the Vero outlets (Nadia used to be a personal shopper- she was mine for no charge!), had brunch overlooking the water, clandestinely went down the water slide at the Disney Resort, drank tropical smoothies, watched the excitement of the adorable kiddies racing for Easter Eggs in their preppy little J.Crew outfits at my parent's beach club, went hot tubbing, ate too many Mint Oreos and Lime Tostedoes, went to Mr. Manatees with Tracy, Rob (they are getting married in October- Congratulations!) and Meg, walked the Boardwalk overlooking the ocean, had several talks about life and friendship over Starbucks lattes, watched a number of chick flicks, tested a variety of key lime pies, soaked up the golden rays overlooking the aqua water, and had great conversations about the Lord and our dreams in life.

One of my very favorite memories from our trip was riding around my parent's neighborhood worshipping Jesus listening to the new Misty Edwards in the pouring rain. You could feel the presence of the Lord in the car with us as we sang of His affections for His people and our love for Him. My parents could not get over how much alike we are- it is such a blessing to have a friend that loves to live each moment to the fullest, loves to have so much F-U-N, and loves the Lord in a similar way. I could not have imagined a better week of vacay or anyone I would have rather shared it with! Nadia and I just booked our tickets to Key West, Florida with our sweet friend Leah for the week after school gets out. Two more months until we reunite in Florida! Here are some fun pictures from our time together...
