It's about time



Can you believe our first visitors happened to be friends that we haven't seen in almost seven years? I'm telling you...Florida calls when the snow starts to fall. Anyway, we were so excited to see long time college friends and their four children (two of them we had never met). We had such a fun time even though it lasted for only two short days.

We spent some time at the beach. It was terribly windy that day and the tide was rough.






The kids were able to feed the sting rays and explore the touch tanks at the oceanographic center.







Our pool is freezing! How the kids manage to swim in it is beyond me. I would have never guessed (before moving here) that 70/80 degree weather is not enough to keep a pool warm in the "winter". We ate lunch at the Marriott so we could take advantage of their heated pool.










Our kids had so much fun, we were sad to see them go. From what I've heard they were sad to go too. They returned home to an ice storm and were unfortunate to have their power (equals heat) out for two days. Sorry gang, we feel for you, come back to us so you can thaw out. Seriously, let's do this again soon.
