Boca Raton & Deerfield Beach

Hello friends! Vacation thus far has provided more time to blog than I expected!! This is a good thing, as it has been all about relaxation as opposed to "go-go-go". Plus, I love to keep ya'll up to date on the happenings. (Ok ya'll isnt really a Florida thing, but it's Southern so just go with it.) I am currently sipping a Yuengling Lager at Nan & Gramps, over looking Pelican Bay on the Intracoastal. Not bad right? We are having a ridiculously good time so far. On our first night we headed to Aunt Cheryl's house in Boca Raton where she cooked up an incredible Italian feast. Caprese salad and chicken, broccoli, sun dried tomato ziti. Tiramisu!We drank red wine, spent quality time with cousins, and the newest edition to the family, my cousin Carly's son baby Jett Joseph. He's actually almost 1, but this is my first time meeting him! How stinkin' cute? How about his little hands and feets?! His fingers and cheeks and legs are the chubbiest little things ever, I just want to eat him! Everyone knows when it comes to babies - the chubbier, the better. He is also one of the most well behaved and relaxed babies I have ever met. He's a bundle of joy, the absolute best.
After dinner Carly and Cassie took Adam and I bar hopping in Deerfield Beach. Carly, Cassie and younger sis Cayla spent every summer with us growing up on Cape Cod (usually 2 or 3 weeks in July, sometimes longer) and we visited them most winters down in Boca. It has been 3 years since we were last together at the family reunion in North Carolina, which is obviously way to long!
Lime in the coconut Mojito.On the beach, headed to the next bar.
And the third spot - rib rolls, nachos and good times at Flanigans. Be back!
