Day 361

The day after Christmas, we woke up in Jacksonville, FL and continued our trip south to North Captiva Island.

We had to catch a water taxi over to the island.

There are no cars on the island.  Only golf carts and sandy paths.  Unfortunately the golf cart that our luggage was in died before we got to our house.  The boys had to help push.

Even though we didn't officially get in the house until about 4:45, we still had time to watch the sunset.

Day 360

Photos from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

Christmas Eve we celebrated at Patsy & Pop's house.

Then we went to the Candlelight Service at church.

Then we made reindeer food.

Then JC read Twas the Night Before Christmas and Santa Mouse.

Then the kids got to open one present each.

Then all was quiet.

Christmas morning was so much fun.  It's always one of my favorite times of the year.








After presents Katie, Carson, Andrew and MiMi came over for a quick lunch before we started heading south.
