Meet the In Laws

In February, we hosted Jake's mom, Claudia,
and her fiancé, Karry, for 10 days.

As Jake was working during the majority
of their stay, I got to spend some
quality time with them!
They were even kind enough to take me
out on Valentine's Day, since my
"Valentine" spent the holiday at the hospital.

I also worked during part of their visit,
but luckily Claudia and Karry are very self-sufficient
and found plenty of ways to stay entertained.
In fact, I think they saw Florida at its finest!

Here are some picture highlights of their stay.

Visiting Disney's Epcot Center:


Disney's Hollywood Studios, where Claudia
was able to go on her favorite ride, 
Aerosmith's Rock 'N' Roller Coaster":

Disney's Animal Kingdom

On Jake's afternoon off, we all went to
Universal Studios, where Hogwarts
was definitely a highlight:

 This picture really sums up our time together.
Claudia collects smashed pennies,
and Jake helped her find just about every
smashed penny machine in the greater Orlando area.
I think we're keeping the smashed
penny industry in business.

 On their own, Claudia and Karry went golfing
(that's a gator in the lake)...

...made it out to the Kennedy Space Center...


...the beach...

...and even the Daytona 500 Race!

 This is the only picture we managed to snap
with all 4 of us.  Jake is appropriately
in his scrubs standing outside of
Winnie Palmer Hospital.

Thanks Claudia and Karry for a great visit!
