We finally were able to take our vacation. We spent 10 days in Florida. Ahhhh, it was very relaxing. We went to Panama City Beach and then we spent Thanksgiving with Ed’s Dad and Step Mother. The weather was gorgeous! Low 80′s for 5 days.
We all enjoyed the beach. It was amazing and our room was on the 4th floor overlooking the ocean. The view and sounds were exactly what we needed. The kids enjoyed playing in the ocean and then we swam in 2 heated pools. I appreciated the convenience of having a washer/dryer in our room. It was a very nice time, we traveled a long way, but stretched it out over the time we were gone. We were also able to spend 1 night with my Niece in Cinci and 1 night with Ed’s brother in Charlotte.
We are home now and the kids are back in school. Ed went back to work today, and I go back tomorrow. I was able to get my Christmas tree up last night with Brian’s help. Now, I just need to accomplish the shopping. 
It is very cold here, we did have a few flurries this morning. (I do not like the cold temps!!!)
I hope you each had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I have so very much to be thankful for. God Bless! -Jolene
