Spending time in Florida with my family at the holidays is always a wonderful experience. The boys spent alot of time with Grandpa who took them fishing and bowling. This year Christmas morning was just my parents and us. My sister did not come over until the afternoon with her family.
Grandpa was very excited because he was the first one up going through the house with the jingle bells to wake the kids up. Both boys were surprised by what Santa brought them:
Sage received a new bike - adult size! He is no longer a kid. As well as a deep sea fishing pole for when he and Grandpa take their fishing trips.
Ryan loves his new workbench! I cannot wait to see what he makes with it.
And then there is the trumpet! ahhh a trumpet, my house will be filled with music. He actually got the hang of it pretty quick. It is alot harder to blow into it then it looks.
Heidi and Grandpa kept fighting over his chair - I guess it is pretty comfy.
My sister and her family came over around noon and Ryan hung out with his cousin for awhile.
We spent most of our time on the beach. The weather was great and we took full advantage of it.
The water on the other hand was incredibly cold. Ryan was the only one brave enough to go into the pool.
Playing football on the beach with friends.
My polar bears! on New years eve day we headed once again to the beach for one last time and it was colder that day than the others. Ryan talked Tony into plunging into the water like they do in the Polar Bear club on New Years day. Sage eventually followed into high waters while I sat comfy on the beach and watched.
New years Eve! Our friends came over to my parents house and we set off fireworks first at 7 for the younger kids who had to go to bed (Ryan). The sparklers were a big hit.
The rest of us stayed up til midnight and welcomed the New Year!
Heading home New Years Day morning.
