The Scoop

Mom, Dad, Amy, and I drove down to Gulfport Saturday for Memorial Day weekend.  Saturday was probably the highlight for me.  Amy and I found the Polo store and I stocked up!  We then had some great seafood at Steve’s Marina.   

Sunday we pretty much lounged around on the beach and in the hotel rooms until that afternoon when we all met Jordan’s fiancé‘s parents for the first time that night.  Nice couple!  We ate at a very nice Italian place called Salute.  Amazing lasagna!  Mom, Dad, Amy, and I then made our way to Ben & Jerry’s at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.  That is definitely my favorite brand of ice cream.

And today, Monday, we came home after making another stop at the Polo store and eating at some placed called 49.   My shrimp etouffee was pretty good. 

It’s nice to be home.  It’s my last free week before summer classes start next Tuesday.  Amy starts tomorrow at Ole Miss.  So, summer is basically over for us.  Haha. 

Oh yeah, I finished two books over the weekend: Blue Like Jazz by Don Miller and More than a Carpenter by Josh McDowell.  Both were great and I would recommend them to anyone.
