More Visitors continued

I had to separate the posts for separate weekends and visitors, so consider this a 2 for 1.  Another great friend of ours, Jonathan, came out this past weekend to hang out with us as well!  Unlike other visitors Jonathan didn't really want a plan and didn't care too much to hit up all the touristy spots.  And it was the 4th of July so there was a lot of things going on here.  So it was a much different trip but we still had so much fun.  He got in on Wednesday night and we just stayed up drinking some wine and catching up.  

On Thursday Jonathan and Kyle came downtown to meet me for lunch at Urban Flats then the boys hit the pool while I worked the rest of the day.  Thursday night we went to Latin Night at Blue Martini and grabbed dinner at Seasons 52.  While at dinner Jonathan surprised us with a bottle of Silver Oak Cabernet and it was amazing.  What a wonderful anniversary gift!!  Thank you so much Jonathan, we can't tell you how much we appreciated that.  Then we headed back to Blue Martini for some more drinks, fun, and amazing flatbread!

On Friday Kyle, Jonathan, and Brannon played golf (again while I worked) then went to the pool.  I went out to Altamonte Springs for the Red Hot and Boom celebration with my friend Jen from work.  It was an amazing fireworks show and we had such a fun time just hanging out!  They had a lot of bands play on the water before the show and I got to see Matt Nathenson and We the Kings which were both really good.  Then we met up with the boys and Brooke at Vines Wine Bar and had a really great night.

Saturday I spent at the pool while the boys went shopping (I know how bad that sounds but the outlets here are really good and it was the only time he had to go check them out)  then they  met me at the pool for a little bit.  We went downtown for the Lake Eola fireworks show which was also an amazing fireworks display.  We ate dinner at a Tapas restaurant that I am so glad Jonathan made us try because it was really good and the Sangria was the best I have ever had.  

It was such a fun weekend and we even got to do things we haven't done here yet!  Spending the 4th with great friends and in Orlando was a wonderful experience.  We hope everyone had a great and safe 4th of July! 

We've got a big week this week!  Tuesday is our 2 year anniversary and Friday I am going back to Dallas to meet and hang out with Laney.  I have never been more excited to go back home before.  It will be an incredible weekend.  Doesn't get much better than getting to meet your niece for the first time and spend all weekend with my family!
