Relax.

March 27th-Astatula, FL

***

Today we drove to the Orlando area to play at Blake's Dad's little get-together in a little town called Astatula, FL. Carol and Jay had everything all set up for us when we got there. Hot dogs on the grill, appetizers on the counter and the furniture all pushed out of the way for a little stage area for us to play. It was a relaxing day spent mingling with Blake's family and their friends. A very special thanks to Carol and Jay for having us!

While Blvd Park stayed in Astatula for the evening, the Musical Charis gang went to Blake's older brother Brian's house in Eustis another little town in Lake County. Brian's girlfriend Toni is a mean pool playing machine so they have a nice table in the living room which got a lot of use and they have a whole room dedicated to crafts! 

All the Abbey boys are so creative! 

Brian built these crazy giant people made out of doors and window frames in his front yard with moveable fingers and arms…it's pretty silly really. He also made us some custom stenciled posters and t shirts to add to our homemade merch collection. We ended the evening with a game of scrabble and Moe learned that you can't use abbreviations and you can't use words that go completely off the board either….

The next day we woke up and retrieved the Blvd Park gang and had a family style meal at the Crazy Gator Restaurant. Blake and I shared the 

Cajun Gator Bites…Tastes just like chicken…no really it does! 

We spent the rest of the day hanging out at Brian's, crafting, catching up on laundry, burning tour dvd's, ripping cd's on my laptop from Brian's extensive music collection, and watching movies (with delivery pizza of course!)

It's nice to have a day off once in awhile ;)
