Family Vacation

Family Vacation
Categories
Lifestyle

Joanne and I have 2 sons and 4 grandchildren and in the past weeks we have hit the Familial Lottery!

In that period Grandkids Ruby, Maggie and Jackson visited us in Key West in a whirlwind of eating, sunning, talking, swimming, shopping, laughing, biking, drinking, socializing, chilling, showing off and front porch sitting. 

I know I've gained at least 5 pounds striving to keep pace.  

Jackson remarked that we were together in their short visit more than all the past 2 years. 

At this writing the grandkids have returned north, but son David and wife Julie arrived yesterday and, no doubt, many more pleasant experiences (and pounds) will be added :)

To say the least, we are so lucky (and appreciative)!

It's great when family visits when you are in a vacation climate! Just do more laps in the pool and the weight will be gone.

David and Julie gave us the best recommendations for our upcoming family trip to Portugal! In fact, they FaceTimed us right in the middle of their dinner to help with the final details! We are using their tour guide and agency. Greatly appreciated.

Family means everything! Love the name Jackson, named after Reggie?

Beautiful - we just did a FAMILIAL Week in Disney World with our three children, son in law and three grandchildren (had to do it - at least once). Getting family together is the best - no matter where you are.

Sounds like heaven- cherish every minute

I always say being a grandparent is even better than being a parent.

We’ve done it three times so far. Longest was a first to Israel two years ago this month that I recounted in a space like this.
