First Trip to see Mia and Papa in Florida 9-6-07/9-11-07


Eli and I just got back from a trip to Florida to see his family. It was a wonderful and relaxing time. I am finally over my cold and I feel well rested. Eli's parents Norma and David have decided that they would like to be called Mia and Papa by the baby!

We spent some time at the beach and at their pool. Eli was finally able to take his dad out for sushi which David did enjoy. They also spent a day golfing at Gator Creek and they did see some gators.

Norma took me on a shopping spree for maternity clothes. We had a great time. I even tried on one of the dresses with the little strap on belly. She introduced the baby to everyone with such pride and excitement by patting my belly!

We met Margarets son Devlin for the first time and he is a cutie! We were able to have a night out with Margaret and Evan while Norma and David watched Devlin.

We flew back in on September 11th and the flight was just fine. We had just called Eli's parents to let them know that we arrived safely and then we got in a car accident. We are fine and the car is only slightly dinged up but it was a pretty major accident for the other car. All 4 people were taken in the ambulance to the hospital. A man pulled out in front of their car and hit them and then as they were spinning they hit us and they ended up in a ditch and were pretty banged up and disoriented. We had to stay around to give a police report and get the mans insurance info to get our car fixed, but praise God all of the Fricks are fine.

Yeah for mom and baby...you hardly look pregnant. It must be a sign that you'll carry well. Happy to hear you eventually made it home from the airport. Love you!! - Kari
