Magic in the Magic Kingdom



Disney World, Orlando, FL

Tricia, Tony, and Ava joined us in Florida for a week. We spent three days of that week at Disney World. It was awesome to watch Ava experience the magic of the Magic Kingdom. I wish I had more and better pictures of this adventure.









This is a terrible picture but it is the only one I have



This trip was a lifetime memory. Thanks to Grandma from all of us for making it happen.

Christmas Lights

The Great Outdoors RV Park, Titusville, FL

Christmas comes to TGO. People here are into lighting up the holidays in a big way and with big bucks. We made several evening trips around the park enjoying the work of the residents. Some pictures illustrate the point.















Watching Christmas lights in a light jacket (or no jacket) is hard for me to get used too. But Christmas is a beautiful time wherever.

Christmas Kickoff



The Great Outdoors RV Park, Titusville, FL

This is our first Christmas in Florida. For me as a northerner, phony snow does not mask the fact that the warm climate takes away from my holiday spirit. However, it is what it is. Here at TGO the Christmas season starts with a parade of golf carts decorated for the season.

Ava in the Nutcracker



Fayetteville, NC

This past weekend we left TGO (without the Cougar) for a visit to Fayetteville, NC. to see Ava perform in The Nutcracker with her dance class. She was excited and so was her stage mom (and Grandma).

Ava had two parts. First she was one of the children at the party:






Then she was a mouse:


Christmas wouldn't be complete without the Nutcracker.
