Holiday Celebration...Florida Style

This year was the year to celebrate the Christmas holiday with the Veitfam. We packed our bags and headed for sunny...yet just a bit warmer Florida. We just hung out, did some shopping at the most fabulous mall ever (Coconut Point) and relaxed. We had two small holiday get togethers. One with a group of Wisconsin transplants who are friends with my parents. And one with some longtime friends who were also taking the holiday to vacation in Florida. It was nice to get to hang out with all of them. We also celebrated my Mom's birthday. I won't tell her age. I don't want her to get mad at me. But I will say that the next one is a milestone!

We are heading back to reality now. :(
It sure does stink to go home after vacation. But picking up our three dogs from the doggie hotel makes it not quite so bad. Plus Santa left Mia a letter at Grandma's condo for Christmas telling her of all the presents she has waiting for her in Tulsa. She is pretty excited to see what he has brought her this year.

Well, Happy New Year to all! Now go take down your tree and lights! And pray we get more fresh snow in Tulsa tonight since we missed the blizzard while we were on vacation!! I will be waxing our sled. ;0)
