Tropical Beach Weddings Guestbook

Thank you for visiting our pages. We would love it if you would Add to this guestbook, Please email us with your comments!

Cecelia and Mike.....
I have so much I would like to say, but I will keep it short.
 
Ya'll are the BEST and did a fantastic job with my daughters wedding on the beach! 
 
Cecelia - you stayed so calm with Angela (the bride) which helped to keep her calm.
The pictures you took were fantastic!
Mike's sense of humor was great!
The vows were so sweet and the way you included our grand-daughter in the vows was absolutely
fantastic!
 
I felt like I knew you with all the emails back and forth before the big day.  You were so good in
responding fast with all of the answers.  I just love ya'll.  You absolutely did take the worry off
of us so we could all enjoy the day....AND WE DID!   
 
We had family come in from Louisiana and from Indiana and everyone said how beautiful the wedding
was.  Even some of the skeptical family members changed their minds and really loved the wedding on
the beach.
 
I also wanted to add that Cocodries and Brooke did a fantastic job with the food and decorations that
night at the restaurant.
 
I don't have one negative comment to make.
 
I'm sure you'll be getting an email from Angie and Travis when they get home.....but I couldn't wait.
 
If anyone wants to contact me for a reference or questions, I will be glad to speak to them.
 
Thanks Cecelia and Mike!

Hi...I am Krystal Garrison's mom (her wedding was this past Saturday 6-7-08) Srader wedding...

Just wanted to tell you ALL "thank you" and what a wonderful job you did with everything! It was PERFECT - Krystal spoke so highly of how well you handled her and responding and just making this event perfect for her ... and it was the most beautiful wedding ever!! Krystal and Jeremy are on their honeymoon in CanCun. I wanted to ask a question...I forgot to leave anything (a tip) for the Officiant ... how could I send her something? I could send her a check or something but wanted to send her a thank you and a personal note as well. I was a bit of a basket case that day and didn't get to give her anything.

Thanks….Karen - mother of the bride.

 

Thank you.
 
I am sorry to hear that Beach Brides did it again! I know how she feels. It sickens me that this lady has no heart.  
The very idea!  I am pleased that she reported her and is getting an attorney. It is long over due. 
Thank God for you and Mike. If the Mother needs a great recommendation about Tropical Beach weddings, she can call me.
Though, I know you have made she and her daughter feel secure as you did me.

Cecelia,  

 We received our photos yesterday and wanted to let you know what a wonderful job we thought the photographer did.

I would also like to thank you, your sister Barbara and the photographer for making our special day one to remember for the rest of our lives!  It was everything I had imagined it to be….simple, yet beautiful!  I will highly recommend your business to anyone I know of planning a wedding in the Destin area. 

 Thanks again!

Wedding date- June 6, 2008

Cecelia –

 I want to thank you, thank you, thank you!!  We had such a wonderful experience in Pensacola Beach and with you for our wedding.  It has been a pleasure working with you over the past months.  You were always so responsive, helpful, and pleasant.  The flowers, cake, and ceremony was everything I had hoped for.

 We received out pictures in the mail yesterday.  We had of course had the sneak preview online and shared the pictures with friends and family.  Everyone has been extremely complimentary of the photos and I was thrilled with I saw them.  They truly captured the experience.  We also received our marriage license yesterday.  It looks like we are official!!

 I do have one last request.  Joe and I were so impressed and touched by the ceremony that Barbara performed.  Is there anyway that she would send us a copy of the ceremony?  It was perfect and said so much.  Please thank her for me!

 Again, thank you.  You made this a truly beautiful, wonderful, experience. 

 Regards,

 Anne Emerson-Duggins

 

 

Cecilia and Mike....
I promise I will NOT keep bothering you two.  I wanted you to know we got the pictures
and the CD.  We loved them and the both of you.
 
Thanks so much for everything!  I didn't get to speak to Mike.....he likes to stay in the background
and he vanished after the ceremony.  But I did want you to know that we appreciated your humor
and how you handled the ceremony.  Your sense of humor with Angela and Kaylee was really cute.
 
I think when I retire from here, I'm moving to Florida to work with you two!!!!   Calm down Mike....
I'm just kidding. 
 
thanks again
Brenda

Absolutley WONDERFUL!! I can not thank you enough for making our day simply perfect.Thank you for your hard work, great pictures, your time, guidance and everything else, especially allowing us to personalize it with the kids and music. The ceremony vows and blessing stones were unforgettable. Thanks so much for everything.

Hi Mike & Cecelia

What a wonderful and memorable day!!!  Jim and I couldn't be happier.  We viewed the photos on line and am very happy with the spectacular job you did Cecelia.

Mike, If I could actually recite the words you spoke at our wedding, it would be a miracle. We were in awe of all that you said, and it meant the world to Jim & I.  We did listen.  To have a copy of your words would be priceless.  I know they are copy writed!!!   Thank You so much for making our dream come true.  It meant the world to us.

We can only remember and visualize what a wonderful wedding day we had and we are truly blessed.

Thank so much!!!
Jim & Ginny Ryan

Michael and Cecelia,

Just a quick note to thank you again for making Kyle and Heather's wedding so memorable! Our guests were delighted, no one had ever been to a beach wedding, and I'm quite sure you will be hard to top. Everything was lovely and Mike everyone was touched by your words and your humor. The stone tossing was a delightful ending. Again our thanks

Jennifer and Dan Kirk

Mike and Cecelia,

We just wanted to thank you for all you did for us on our April 6th wedding in Pensacola. I was a nervous wreck, but Mike you helped me calm my nerves!

Hi Cecelia,

And we also wanted to say what a great time we had. Even though the weather wasn't the greatest, it still was the best ever! Thank you for being so accommodating. The night of the wedding we ate dinner at Cocodries and they treated us so wonderful! Then we went out to a karaoke bar...I think it was called 98 Liquor and Lounge...we had all of our friends there and it was a blast!!!!! Even some of the local people were toasting us and buying us drinks! And the day of our wedding I went and had a 30 minute massage...And I have YOU to thank for that...it was great! So we just wanted to say thank you for making our special day even more special.

Forever grateful,
Clayton and Paula Guidry

Hi Cecelia and Mike,

We first wanted to start off by saying WHAT A BEAUTIFUL CEREMONY AND DAY! Our families are still ranting and raving to anyone who will listen. We appreciate your professionalism, friendliness, and organization! We have referred you to two couples already who are thinking of tying the knot.

Love,

We can not thank you enough for yesterday!! The ceremony was exactly what we had in mind. We really appreciate the love you have for what you do, it really shows through in the presentation and thoughtfulness you gave to us.


Thank you again!
Keith and Heather Nunnally!!

I wanted to send a thank you, to you and your wife. The ceremony was wonderful and we truly felt blessed that day you united us as husband and wife.
The pictures were so good.

Thank you once again.
Ken and Charity Preslan

Mike and Cecelia

Mike and I really wanted to express our gratitude for everything that you did for the wedding. You made our day absolutely perfect, and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. Planning a “destination” wedding can be very stressful with not knowing the area or local vendors, but you made this very easy. We are so glad that we found you, and we will be telling everyone we know to give you a call if they ever want a wedding in Florida!!


Mike & Michelle Ferguson

Hello there,

This is the Godfrey's. We just wanted you to know that we were thinking of you guys on June 30th and what a wonderful wedding you coordinated two years ago for us. We still have our sand bottle and the one that you guys sent for my husband last year (my anniversary gift last year) displayed in our living room, where it will sit forever. Thanks again for the unforgettable wedding.

Adam and Eva Godfrey

Mike and Cecilia,

We made it home safely last night late. We just wanted to tell you how much we appreciated everything you did. It was perfect. You met all of my expectations. All of our guests enjoyed it too.

Thank you

Terry Turner Ward

Dear Mike and Cecelia,

Thank you again for helping to make Jenna and Caleb’s day everything they dreamed of it being. Everyone has raved over the conclusion of the ceremony. Even the bride and groom commented on how it was the perfect way to have them “go off into the sunset.”
The seafood buffet was delicious. I don’t remember eating too much, but others commented on the variety and taste. Be sure to thank the servers for doing a good job.
How beautiful the ceremonial site was!! We were truly in the most beautiful of God’s churches. The emerald-colored waves, the clean white sandy beach, and the swiftly blowing wind made us aware of God’s presence in that place. Thank you for adding a lovely touch to that already perfect picture. Please extend our appreciation to the young people who worked so hard in the area.

Finally, the music was exactly what the bride and groom had requested. There seemed to be “a lot of shaken going on to me”.
It was as you commented Mike, :a joyful and loving: wedding and who could have asked for more. Thank you once more for the part you and your staff played. We will continue to sing you’re your praises.

With heartfelt appreciation,
Bob and Nancy Ratliff
Steve and Sissy Campbell
And the newlyweds
Caleb and Jenna Campbell

Thank you so much! The wedding was way more than I had hoped for! You guys did such a great job! I was very happy with it! Thank you for making my day so special!

Sheri Frazier

Ya'll are amazing!! We loved our wedding and we are still on cloud nine! We
are sorry that we didn't get a chance to meet you, Mike, but Cecelia is so
wonderful---you must be so proud of her!!

Thanks again for everything and we are telling all of our friends to have a
destination wedding with ya'll.

Love,
Amanda Landry Burkenstock

We just want to thank you for the most wonderful day of our life!!! Thank you Cecilia and Barbara for the beautiful ceremony and pictures that we treasure every day since we married on the beautiful Destin Beach!!
Usually you dream and expect somthing to be too perfect but we were both very happy with every single thing of our night on April 12. It went better then we ever planned. It had to be the most beautiful special wedding we have ever seen even though it was our own.

Thank you so much for all you did!!!!
Tammy and Duane Sikes

Mike and Cecelia,

We just wanted to let you know what an AMAZING job you guys did with our wedding and our reception!! I can't begin to tell you how truly perfect the the day felt. You both were so awesome. Mike, the ceremony was beautiful. Not having the traditional rehearsal there was a certain amount of surprise as to how everything would actually play out, and it was absolutely perfect! I know this email may seem a bit over zealous, but you both made our day as special as we hoped it would be. Cecelia, you were so calm and so on top of everything that needed to be asked and also, so kind and gracious. It was a pleasure to meet you both and to have you as part of our special day!! Both Eli and I appreciate your hard work and all of your efforts. I CAN NOT wait to see the pictures.

Thank you again, it was the most intimate and perfect day of our lives!!

Thanks,
Jada & Eliah Dixon

Mike and Cecelia,

Stephen and I just wanted to thank you so much for a perfect day! We couldn't have asked for anything better - it was exactly what we had hoped it would be! Our families can't stop talking about it, and even those friends and family members that couldn't make it have already seen pictures and videos and loved it!
We greatly appreciate everything you have done and how easy you made it for us! Thanks again so much!!

Rachael and Stephen Willever

Mike & Cecilia,
Thank you so much. You have given us both the wedding of our dreams without all of the stress and hassle. Everything looked great. I'm already referring other people to your site. I was very pleased with all that you did. You made us feel like we've known you for a long time.

Tracy & Jerry Rogers

Just a quick note to let you know how much I appreciate all you both (and your great company) did for Amanda & John's wedding at Henderson State Park. Everything was fantastic. You all did a great job and saved the day for Amanda by being able to do the wedding for her and John. Everyone enjoyed the ceremony and the food was fantastic.

From the bottom of my heart, Thank You.

Mike & Cecilia,

I just want to give you guys another huge THANK YOU for the spectacular job you did on my daughter, Lauren's, April 21st wedding in Destin. First of all the weather was PERFECT! I'm sure you all "ordered" that kind of weather just for us! The decorations on the beach were awesome! Everyone just could not get over how lovely the beach looked. Mike performed an amazing ceremony....lots of fun and laughter! Thanks, Mike, for making Lauren and Kyle feel at ease during their vows.
Last, but not least....the scrumptious food and wonderful entertainment - Wow....people are still talking about how delicious the food was. It was plentiful and such a great variety! Everyone in attendance had such a great time dancing to the wonderful music you played.
This was truly a day to remember! It will forever be in our minds and hearts!
Thanks again for EVERYTHING!

Lisa Taylor

I just finished looking at the pictures...they are AWESOME!!!!!!!!! I can't get over what a wonderful job you did on them!!! I'm sending the link to all my family and friends!!!

I just wanted to let you know how beautiful everything was. Everyone was amazed at how everything looked. And the house you recommened was perfect. We thought that sleeping 22 people in one house was going to be a task but we had room to spare. The food was excellent and both Conway and I appreciate the time you took to make it the perfect wedding for us. Thanks, Alicia Brooks

Hey Cecelia,

We did have a wonderful time and the wedding was just perfect. I can't thank you and Mike enough! Everyone there commented on what a beautiful job you did, and everyone thought Mike was awesome!

Kay Carter

Hi Mike & Cecelia,

I just wanted to stop in and say hello!! It has now been 3 months since my wedding, and I still think about it & you both just about every day. I am so glad that I got to meet both of you. You are truly special people that give people something so unique and blessed that no one can describe accurately!! I hope that when I come to town again soon, I will be able to meet up with you both, although I do know you are both very busy people. It is a blessing to the world to have two wonderful people like you both in it. I am so blessed for having met you both. I just can't say enough good things about you. I still tell everyone about you both and how great it was to have you do the wedding for us. I love to bring out my pictures and rave on y'all. Well I guess that is enough mush for now!!

Talk to you soon,
Aubrey Herndon
(married 6/1/06)

** P.S. I recently found out that you also married a girl I went to high school with. What are the odds of that?? Her name is Rachel Walkup. I could not believe it when she told me. We were the same age, from the same area, graduated together, and got married days apart by the same people in a different state!! It truly is a small world!!!

I just wanted to say Thank Ya'll so much for a beautiful wedding! It just really was the best wedding everyone enjoyed it. And i got our wedding liscense yesterday just wanted to let you know. A BIG Thanks Again,

Samantha & Brandon Griffin

Hi Mike and Cecelia!

Matt and I want to thank you SO much for giving us such a beautiful wedding. I have been complimenting your services since we returned from Florida. This experience could not have been any more relaxed and stress-free. You took care of every detail and answered every question in a timely manner. People spend thousands of dollars on "the big church wedding". Having been through both, I highly recommend the destination wedding. The most difficult decision is which pictures I want to put in frames. They are beautiful!
Thanks again and take care,
Susan and Matt Mullins

Hello Mike and Cecelia,

First of all, Mike, thank you so much for making our wedding feel so special. We couldn't have been more pleased. I would recommend your services to anyone looking for a fun, relaxed, yet meaningful and beautiful ceremony. Many of our guests were moved by your words and kept commenting on the beauty of the ceremony. I would do it again without hesitation.

Cecelia, we received our pictures Friday and they are beautiful. We couldn't have picked a hotter day to get married, still you managed to make us look good! :) I look through the pictures 100 times a day, I can't put them down.

Thank you both for making our wedding day a day we will never forget. Best of luck to you in the future.

Mike and Cecelia

I just wanted to take a minute to let you know how grateful I am. You
helped to make Emily's and Vincent's wedding day the best day of their
lives! Nothing could have made it any better. Not only were we very
pleased, but our guests just kept on talking about how nice the wedding was
and bragging on Mike and Brenda. There's no words that can let you know
just how much you and what you did for us means to me.

Thanks again,
Pam

Hi Mike and Cecelia,

Everyone agrees that my wedding was beautiful. I have told several people
about y'all! Not only how beautiful the wedding was, but how helpful y'all
were before and during the wedding. I even had my "rehersal dinner" (well we
all got together and had dinner the night before the wedding) at the
lighthouse restaurant, where Cecelia recommended. We loved it! My sister
lives in Mississippi, she recorded the show and has shown several people
(even people she works with) the wedding.
Thanks again!
Jessica Woods

Mike & Cecelia

I just wanted to drop you a little note to thank you both for everything you did for us. We have had so many compliments on our pictures and video of our wedding. The wedding was so much fun and stress free. Mike did a great job. My dad was very happy with everything. If he tells me how good of a job someone did, that really means something. The only thing that could have made the day better is if Cecelia could have been there. We missed you. You two are such sweet people. Hope we get to meet again.

Thanks Again

Mitch & Julie Porter Fayetteville, TN

Michael................Once again, WONDERFUL wedding & GREAT job on the part of everyone. Please accept my sincere appreciation for the excellent way in which you presented the ceremony.

Once again, thank you & please feel free to us me as a reference if needed. I have no problem with you releasing my telephone number to anyone with questions. THANKS!!

Bill

Mike & Cecelia

Thank You so much for everything you done for our wedding. It looked absolutely beautiful and it could not have been more perfect! We really appreciate all of your hard work. I was so glad you found the colors we wanted. The flowers, well everything, looked awesome! The pictures were really good as well. It was definately a dream wedding. It was so nice meeting you. I really appreciate Cecelia being such a wonderful coordinator & being so helpful with everything--even with our marriage license! We won't forget you and we will recommend you to anyone who wants to have a beach wedding. Also thanks for putting our pictures on your web page, and the two on the packages page. They are two of my favorites! The picture of me standing under the arch is my favorite one of me as the bride! That means a lot to us. Thanks again for everything!!!

 

Love,

Derek & Yvonne Morgan

Mike & Cecelia

Everyone, (even the guys), commented over and over on how beautiful our wedding ceremony was. Thank you so much for making our day special. We can't wait to get the photos.

Mike & Cecelia,

We both wanted to thank you making our dream wedding come true. Steve & I felt like we were the only 2 people on the beach during the ceremony; it was so romantic. We received the pictures today and they were breathtaking. Mike, the ceremony was beautiful and all of our guests were remarking what a great job you guys had done. I know that we will be recommending the two of you to anyone that is contemplating having a beach wedding in Northwest FL. I know everyone loved the blessing stones as it allowed all of them to have a part in our ceremony. So thanks again for making our wedding day so special.

Hi Mike & Cecelia,

Hmm....Where to start??? I can not thank you both enough for making my dream wedding come true. Words can not describe just how happy you both made me and how appreciative I am of everything you did for us.You both were so sweet to our families and friends, and us of course! Cecelia, you kept me calm when things weren't going exactly as I hoped prior to the wedding starting. Mike, you made me laugh and smile during the ceremony, which helped me say the vows I wanted to say, without crying! You have both made a place in my heart and I will forever be thankful I found ya'll! I can not explain how you both made me feel like I was the most important person in the world. I know you had other weddings to deal with during the time I was having mine, but you made me feel like I was the only person you were dealing with. I believe there is a lot to be said about that kind of customer service and satisfaction. That doesn't happen all that often these days. You truly know what you are doing and do it well. I will definitely recommend your company to anyone I talk to. The pictures you took were just gorgeous, and really captured the love and happiness of the day. I know I have made lifetime friends in you both and look forward to seeing ya'll soon!

Love,
Aubrey Herndon

Hello friends!
I just wanted to write to say thank you soo much for such a PERFECT wedding! You guys and your staff were amazing!! There were many times when my mom, me, or Gregory could have freaked out but you made things so easy and I am soooo thankful for that. Also, wanted to let you know I got the cd's and the photos. Thanks so much for the quick and prompt delivery! I was so excited to get them in the mail so quick! I do appreciate you guys so much and I will be recommending your company to anyone who wants to get married in Florida! Talk to you soon, and THANKS again!


The new Rachael Walkup :)

Hey Mike and Cecelia,

I just had to first write and thank you so much for creating such an awesome wedding!! It was more than Rachael and I could have dreamed and more! All of our family and friends keep talking how beautiful and perfect the wedding. The ceremony that Mike conducted was beautiful, and the words that were spoken came from the heart which made it that more special for us. We can't thank ya'll enough for all your hard work and dedication.

Greg Walkup

Mike and Cecilia
Thanks again for all that you have done. Everything was better than I even imagined. The decorations were beautiful and the service was just absolutely perfect!!! I loved the fact that it was not so traditional, but still very classy and complete. Also, thank you for picking up the flowers for me. All of our guests have said how much they enjoyed it and how beautiful everything was. Thanks again for all that you have done and ya'll have truly made our wedding day a perfect day that we will never forget.

HI Mike & Cecelia,

First off, we want to thank you both for such a wonderful wedding. Cecelia, thanks for everything, it was as if you were invisible but there everywhere you were needed! Mike - we never got to meet you, but the food was fantastic, and all of the guests thought so too. Despite the high tides eating up half our beach area and the wind, everything was perfect. We hope a few of our pictures will be up on your website - if they turned out nice enough. We won't have the beautiful glow of the sunset as hoped, but we had some huges waves! Ha ha. We highly recommend you both to anyone looking to get married in that area, and even more we recommend the catering - it just turned out wonderfully.

Thanks again for everything!!
Faith & Austin

I just wanted to say thank you for making our day the best it could be!
Thank you so much for the short notice changes, and for the "day of"
coordination. We would do it again in a heartbeat!! You both were the best-
thanks a million!!!!!!! :) -Amy Kies-Budzynski

 

Mike and Cecelia,

I just wanted to say thank you for everything you and Mike did to make our special occasion even more special.
Everything turned out perfect. Mike did a wonderful job performing the ceremony, and we loved the sand filled bottle. It is something that we will treasure always. Everyone loved the blessing of the stone, our guess will always remember that moment.

Thanks again for all those pictuctures, they really came out nicely, all our guess loved them.

Everything turned out really lovely, and we can't thank you guys for making our day stress free.

Thank you guys so much for making our wedding such a wonderful experience. Everyone kept complimenting me on the job that you guys did. From the bottom of my heart, I greatly appreciate what y’all have done for us. You guys will always be in my heart.

Always,

Janah & Jeremy Ballard

Ps. I will recommend this to everyone!!! No stress, no mess; just a whole bunch of fun!

 

Mike and Cecelia,

I would like for you to add the following message to your guestbook.

I was married in Destin on April 15, 2006 by Tropical Beach Weddings. I was blown away with how sincere and easy going everybody was. They made my day go by without any added stress. They made sure everything was in line and that we did not forget the slightest detail! All of the guests were praising the great food and hospitality that was shown. I would strongly recommend Mike and Cecelia as wedding planners to anybody who is considering a ceremony on the emerald coast! Thanks again,

Jared and Courtnie Lindsey

Hello Mike and Cecelia,

We just got back from our honeymoon and I wanted to thank you both for such
a beautiful wedding. Mike, the ceremony was everything and more than I
imagined. Thank you for being so patient and calming me down! I thought
nothing would go wrong with my wedding day. People kept telling me that
something would go wrong and I didnt believe them! Thank you for being so
understanding and helpful. Cecelia, sorry I didnt get to meet you! Your
husband was as great as you have been with planning the wedding. I have
told so many people about y'all and so have the couple that sang at the
wedding (they live in mississippi). So we will definately spread the word.
I dont think it could have been any more special.
Thanks again!
Jessica (Woods)

Michelle and I want to Thank You both again. Living in the devastation that we have been in for so long, we just wanted a Wedding somewhere nice and to get away from everything here at home. The two of you made it our dream Wedding. We could not have planned anything more perfect than what you provided us with. The pictures were beautiful and captured the feel of the day. Cecilia, you have a great eye. If anyone asks for references, feel free to give them my email address and I plan to write the Chamber of Commerce who told me about you and tell them how wonderful you are. God Bless You, Tommy and Michelle

You may not remember us but you performed our wedding June 30th this year. We just wanted to update you on how things are going and tell you how many comments we have had on our pictures. So many people are wanting to get married this way so we have gave your phone number out several times. Our wedding was wonderful and the honeymoon was great too, even though we were chased by hurricane Dennis on our cruise. We hope ya'll have a very merry christmas!! The Godfrey's

Cecelia, I just wanted to say thank you for everything you and Mike did to make this special occasion even more special. Everything turned out perfect. Mike did a wonderful job performing the ceremony, and we loved the sand filled bottle. It is something that we will treasure always. The bouquet was beautiful. You did a wonderful job picking out the roses. We were really pleased with the pictures as well. We had our reception at the house this past weekend, and put the picture CD on our DVD player so everyone could see them on the TV. The guests loved them. Thanks again for the wonderful job you guys did! Ron and Debbie Pierce

Mike and Cecelia, Thank you for making my daughter's wedding such a success. It couldn't have been more lovely. The beach decor was beautiful, along with Mother Nature, made for a gorgeous setting.The ceremony was so heartfelt and loving. I loved the little touches of the sand filled bottle and the blessing stones. They were so meaningful. The food was out of this world delicious and served so elegantly. I think that was evident by the amount of food eaten. What was left, the kids finished of during the week. The entertainment was also outstanding. Mike, you have a wonderful voice and so versatile. Thank you also for sharing the spotlight with Shana's cousin's wife. It meant a lot to Shana to have her sing. Shana said the pictures were great. We live far apart so I haven't seen them yet. But I'm sure the quality will be the same as the entire event. We were truly pleased with everything you did for Shana and Aaron. I wish you luck in the coming years. If all your weddings go this well, you will be very successful

Thanks again- Aleta ps--I really, really wish we could move to Destin...even with the hurricanes!
