I've Returned From Paradise

I'm back in my own bed and about to turn out the light earlier than I have for the last eight days. I'm a little overwhelmed at the thought of documenting this trip. And I have a bad habit of not blogging about big events because deciding what pictures to use, what events to write about and how to write about them stresses me out just thinking about it. But I want to have it all wrapped up in a nice post (or two or three) for my own enjoyment, if not the enjoyment of my faithful readers (or my mom, either way).

So in short, it was amazing. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

I tried to find a picture that summed up the whole trip and this was as close as I could get.
If only you could see the ice cream cone in my hand. Oh, and the band I was watching from my lounge chair.

{Sigh.}
