The pirates invaded south Tampa once again for the annual Gasparilla!

Pirates, parades, funnel cakes, and eye patches. All you need for a good time.


Is this the cutest pirate you've ever seen?

Mini Vacation

I ventured up to DC to visit my dad, Cheryl, and David. Little did I know how C O L D it was. WHATTTTTTTT. Below freezing almost every day. UGH. Thank goodness I look so cute in scarves and hats. We traveled to DC to do some sight-seeing and went to two museums.

Our parking spot in downtown Washington, DC RIGHT in front of the National Air and Space Museum. dannnnnnnng.

American flight attendant uniforms from the 60s. I think I would have looked cute in these.


'The Flyer', the original plane that was the first in flight by the Wright brothers in 1903. Now look where we are.


My brother's picture that we turned into a caveman at the National Museum of Natural History.

The Hope Diamond in a Harry Winston designed setting. Yes please!

SS is for Snow Storm

We ventured up to Mercersburg, PA to ski at Whitetail Ski Resort on Tuesday. To get there from Virginia, we had to travel through the mighty states of West Virginia, Maryland, and then finally to PA. Needless to say, we had a great time skiing!

NOW, I'm sitting here snowed in, in my dad's house in Virginia watching the whiteness take over outside: see pictures below.

If all goes well, I will make my flights tomorrow to get back to sunny Tampa in time for Gasparilla!
