Florida!


We arrived in Florida this morning and went to the welcome center. We were warmly welcomed and asked if we would like some orange juice. Who doesn't want some orange juice? Then they told us if we would have our picture taken, we would be entered in a drawing for a year supply of orange juice. That sounded like fun to us, so we all had our picture taken of me serving o.j. to the whole family. I also got to keep the apron, what a deal, huh...


After we checked in to our hotel, we went straight to the beach. We were all like kids jumping, and screaming in the waves. The sand felt so good between our toes, and Katie kept stopping to play in the sand. The waves were really neat.

This is our new buddy here in Florida. We will be seeing lots of buddies like him in the future.

Welcome to the sunshine state!!! It's funny my Mom and Dad stop at the welcome center when they go too and from Tennessee to visit David & Jenn! The picture of the beach makes me all the more anxious to get there. There is nothing like the ocean and some warm weather. Hope you get settled quickly, I am looking forward to hearing about how the whole Florida move came about! God Bless :)

So happy yout guys arrived safe & sound. Those kind of trips are the ones the children talk about for years. Hotels with swimming pools, that is the best for all parties involved! Look forward to watching you guys get settled! Sending love & hugs!
