First off all my love and condolences to my wonderful friend Phillip. I am so sorry about the loss of your mom. I am so happy you are back here where you belong and I still cannot wait to give you a hug!

Here is my post about our trip to Florida, I also have so much to post about but cannot do it right now. I thought I had posted this before but realized I had not so here it is:

Our trip to Florida:

Well it started off by Mr. H dropping us off at the airport at about 8:00 on Tuesday night. Our flight left Phoenix bound for Las Vegas a little after 10. We got to Vegas and our connecting flight was running late so we got some Starbucks and blew 20 bucks on the slots. We got on our flight and headed to Florida about 11:30pm Nevada time. It was a long flight, we were in the row in front of the emergency exits so our seats did not recline YUCKY!!!! So I could not sleep, Todd did get a little.

We landed a little late and FL and when I went out to meet my sister in law I was surprised with my brother being there also. We then left for the 1 and ½ hour ride to mom’s watching the Family Guy on my brother’s DVD player. Got to mom’s and we sat around had some coffee and breakfast, then mom gave my brother and I each $1000.00 for Christmas, I almost fell over!!!! She also gave me a beautiful pair of earrings for my birthday that are gold, with blue sapphire and diamond crosses and inside is engraved “God bless and protect my precious daughter” I love them and wear them all the tine! That night my mom’s best friend Gisela came over for a couple of days. She is the best! We ordered in baked chicken Parmesan and it was awesome! Jeff and Chrystal were over for dinner and afterwards we all played a game called Catch Phrase OMG we had so much fun!

Thursday was Thanksgiving and man did my mom cook a yummy meal! Jeff and Chrystal came over for dinner, as did Chrystal’s Aunt Angela. We had a really nice dinner, and then we kicked back for the night, watched moves and had a really nice day.

Friday we slept in a little then we went and saw my Uncle Mark’s new place, it is beautiful! It had been storm damaged from a hurricane, so he got a great deal on it and is refurbishing the whole thing. Afterwards we went over to Punta Gorda (about 20 minutes away) and went to a place called fisherman’s Village. It has all kinds of neat shops and a restaurant on the water that we ate lunch at. The Gisela left to go back to Boca Raton. We went shopping with my mom, got all our left over’s together and went to my brother’s for dinner and to play Fact or Crap (a fun trivia game) and also to play Scattegories. After we sat around his fire pit and made smores. It was a blast!

Saturday we went out on my brother’s boat, stopped at a beach by Sarasota, then came back down the intercoastal and docked at a cute little restaurant, had lunch and headed back in to Venice (where we left earlier) we were out on the boat about 4 or 5 hours. That night we went mini golfing and to cosmic bowling! What a busy but fun day!

Sunday we went to lunch before my mom took us to the airport, flew home, got in about 8 PM then had to drive to Payson to meet Bill and get Kenny since they did not bring him down like they said they would URRRGGGHH oh well so we got home about Midnight.

We had a great time and cannot wait to move there. Oh well if you want to see pics of the trip just go to:
