Well, you can't stay on vacation forever :-( but we try!
One last day at Disney, then we were off!
We stopped to see a friend in Florida and she was gracious enough to let us help her decorate her tree! Which was awesome, because we weren't doing a tree or decorations this year. Too much moving, and with all of our things in storage, it wasn't worth it to buy new things.
So Ashley made it extra special for us, not only did we get to decorate a tree, but we did it with friends and family! It was PERFECT!
Here's her son Gavin and Oscar putting decorations on the tree.
Oscar and Makayla

Ashley getting more ornaments for the tree.
We tried and tried and TRIED unsuccessfully to get a good picture of all the kids in front of the tree. But Oscar and the girls just kept messing it up! When we finally got a semi-decent picture of the younger ones it was the ONLY picture Gavin was not a perfect angel in! HA!
I think he was tired of the younger kids messing up his picture!
Oscar LOVES swords. And he's actually really good at wielding them too!
Even the ones that are twice as long as he is!

Then, we were finally leaving florida! On our way out of the state, we got a phone call asking if we were in northern Florida. ...as a matter of fact, we were 30 minutes away from them as luck would have it! So we stopped to see an old rep of Jordan's and he met us at a really amazing, tiny little Japanese restaurant where the chef cooked everything right in front of you!
Not only was the show really neat to see, the food was GREAT!
As we were driving we saw a light beam into the sky.
We have no idea what it was, but we saw it for miles!
A random town we stopped in for gas happened to be the town that Elvis was born in!
So we had to find the house!
Kind of small, but from such humble beginnings...
I always enjoy driving across the country and seeing new things each time!
I am so grateful for my husbands job and all of the things we are able to do because of it!
That is awesome that you were still able to decorate a Christmas tree! We didn't get to do that this year. Bummer.
ReplyDeleteDoes Jordan like his iPad? Sam wants one of those so badly.
I am due March 24th. I would love to take some maternity clothes off of your hands if you are sure you won't be needing them again! :)
Hey! Elvis is the King! :)
