What a Great Week!

What a wonderful past week and a half I have had! My visit with Tyler was so wonderful and then to have my mom, Laurie, and Alli come the next day was awesome! We packed as much stuff as we could into the few days they were here. They came up to Dolphin Research Center each day to see me at work some. Then the three of them spent the rest of their day at the beach at the hotel I work at. It worked out so great and we just had so much fun! I got to take them down onto the dock to meet AJ, Jax, and Kibby. Here is a picture of them with Kibby!

We also got a chance to go to Sunset Park (which is the park Tyler proposed at) to watch the Sunset. It was so beautiful! The park was pretty crowded which was a first for me, and then once the sun set, everyone started cheering and yelling "do it again!" haha....it was really nice and would be cool if it could just "do it again..." Here is us on the dock at the park!

So as you can imagine, it was little crowded in the shoebox, but we actually made it work really well! I slept in my own bed, mom slept on the trundle bed, Laurie slept on the futon, and Alli slept on an air mattress. It was nice because each morning, they put the air mattress up and rolled the trundle bed under the bed and we actually had more space than before! Here is a picture of what my room looked like each night!

The best part of that picture is Bear! He is on the trundle bed with his butt up in the air and his eyes are glowing! haha...He would get so excited each night we started up the beds out because he thought the beds were all for him! He especially loved the air mattress that Alli slept on. He would do his crazy cat dance on it and then pounce on it from in the bathroom. It was really funny.

We also got to eat out at some very nice restaurants! Thursday night we had pizza from Upper Crust, Friday night we ate at the Keys Fisheries, Saturday night we ate at Cabana Breezes, and then Sunday we ate at the Island! All of them were so yummy!

On their last day at DRC they all 3 got to paint a T-shirt! Here are the final products :)

They all look so great! I had such a wonderful time with them and am so happy they were able to take the time to come visit me! They also got this sweet picture of me narrating on the microphone! I look so into it :)

Well I kind of already gave my BEAR UPDATE, but he LOVED having more people here. You could tell he loved the attention and getting to spend time with someone else besides me! haha...Here is a cute picture I took of him in the bathroom. He has gotten so he loves to get in the shower after I get out, and drink the water. It is really odd but he sits outside of the shower waiting for me to get out. Once I'm out, he runs in and starts drinking!

Finally, the other day at DRC I got to wear my rash guard because we had some media people on site. It was the first time I got to wear it and I thought I looked nice and official. I'm wearing over my bathing suite, don't worry. Tyler thought I was in my underwear, but its just a bathing suite! haha...

Well I think that is about it for today. I haven't had to work at the hotel this whole time I've had company so that has been really nice but I start back tonight. I'm glad I get to start back up again because it keeps me busy and the extra money is great! Hope everyone is doing well and I'll try to write again soon :)
