Florida trip


Where does the time go? Michael and I went to Florida two and a half weeks ago, and I'm just now getting around to blogging about it. A friend of ours from college invited us to her wedding in Anna Maria Island, and we were only too happy to attend. Not only did we get to be the sole representatives from her time in Arizona and be blessed to be a part of this joyous and important occasion in her life, we also got to make a vacation out of it. We spent some time on the beach, ate great food (both wedding-related and at restaurants), and enjoyed seeing the bride and groom and meeting the other guests. After a great couple days of wedding festivities, Michael and I headed back to grandma's to get in some family quality time too. We had lunch at a place called RJ Gators, and I can hardly believe myself, but I tried alligator! That's right. It was in the form of popcorn chicken, but I wouldn't say it tasted like chicken. The texture was somewhere between chicken and clams, but the flavor came mostly from the spicy batter in which it was fried. It was actually pretty good.
