Vamanos Miami!

A couple weekends ago, Ben and I headed to Miami for Carmen's wedding!  Carmen was the only other girl in my residency of six at Baylor!  So needless to say we spent lots of time together so there was no way I could miss this day for her!  Chance got to spend the weekend with his Gran and Big Daddy and he didn't complain one bit!  He loves being with them which makes it easy for us to take a trip!  Ben took the day off on Friday so we left bright and early!  We stayed on Ft Lauderdale beach!  It was pretty cool and windy so no getting in the water for us!  We really enjoyed just hanging out together, site seeing and eating!  On Saturday we ventured down to South Beach!  If you look at the pictures closely you will be able to see what part of the beach we really ended up on!  Too Funny!  Miami was definitely a cultural experience!  Carmen's wedding was on Saturday night!  Carmen is from Venezuela and her groom I believe is Cuban.  The wedding invitation said 4pm to start little did I realize that that really means you start at 5:30!  They operate on a different time table than I do!  What a great wedding!  I have never been to a wedding quite like this!  From Carmen being brought in by a horse drawn carriage to a station rolling Nicaraguan cigars!  Very interesting!  I got to catch up with some old friends and of course got to talk "dental" which I always love to do!  We got to sleep in a few days and overall had a great time with the hubby!  We missed our buddy but we were really glad for some time away just the two of us before our family becomes four!

Ben kept saying it really felt like the video game "Grand Theft Auto"
