Random Pictures!

Ok so here are a bunch of pictures from the last few weeks!! Greg finished his first week of law school and loved it, and we have actually seen him a lot more than we expected which is SOOO nice!!! Other than that we really haven't done too much, besides hit the beach and go swimming!! We have made a lot of friends down here, and love being in Florida!!

P.S. These are in random order

Brooklyn LOVES chicken nuggets!

Another couple from Rexburg came down here for school too and we have become really good friends with them! They have a little girl, Evelyn, and Brooklyn adores her! They are only 7 months apart and are already best friends!!!

I am so excited for them to grow up together for the next few years!

The waves were soo big this day beacause of Hurricane Bill, it's hard to tell but they were at least 7-10 feet tall

Brooklyn loves eating eggs and toast for breakfast!

Well we are all unpacked and settled into our apartment and we love it!!! When we got here our apartment got upgraded to a bigger and newer apartment for the same price, so we love it even more! It is a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment with tons of room for Brooklyn to zoom around! Here are a few pics of our complex and of our apartment!

It makes you feel like you are at a resort!

Brooklyn's room, it is huge, just about the size of our old bedroom in Rexburg!

While we have been here, we have seen some pretty cool rain storms! Being hurricane season, it usually rains every afternoon for at least an hour, and then it clears off and goes back to being nice and sunny! Here is one of the rain storms we were watching from our deck! It is hard to tell how hard it is raining, but you kind of get the idea with all of the noise!

St. Augustine and the Alligator Farm

While Greg's family was here in Florida with us, we went down to St. Augustine Florida, which is the oldest city in America. While we were there we went to the Lighthouse Station Museum and saw the huge lighthouse that you could climb up and look out of. We couldn't go up because Brooklyn was too small, so we just took pictures from outside. We also drove by Castillo De San Marcos fort, which was a fort built when St. Augustine was founded.

While we were in St. Augustine we stopped by an Alligator Farm. It just happened to be raining when we got there so we were soaking wet by the end, but it was still fun walking through and seeing all the exhibits and types of alligators and crocodiles. Not even Brooklyn seemed to mind getting soaked in the rain!

It was like walking through a jungle

Some of these alligators were huge!

Tons and tons of alligators waiting for people to throw them food

Even in the rain she was so happy

While we were there they just happened to be feeding Maximo, their largest alligator. He only gets fed once a week, so we were glad we were there to see it. Here are a couple of videos of him eating. It was pretty awesome to be able to watch this!

Florida!

Hey Everyone! We are finally all moved into our apartment and have our internet working, so now we can blog!! First of all, we LOVE Florida! We got here on the 28th and have been loving every minute of it! Jacksonville is a lot different than we expected, but it has been great so far! Everything is super green and there are tons of trees and palm trees everywhere! Greg's family flew down to Florida with us and then stayed for a week to help get us all settled in! It is pretty hot and humid down here, but not as bad as we expected! Here are a bunch of pictures from our first few days here in Florida!
