Great Days, Sad Goodbyes

We just finished up a great afternoon with "everyone" at Uncle Buddy's house. Jack and Bridget swam in the pool the whole afternoon. The fish-fry was awesome. So much food, too much cholesterol! Baby Gabriel was a cutie!
Afterwards, we drove Granny home and had a tearful and hug-filled good-bye. Jack and Bridget especially loved all the time spent with Meme, Papa, Granny.... and John the Cat!

Last Day

Today is our last day in Florida with our wonderful Floridian families. We will spend time today finishing packing, then going over to Uncle Buddy's house for an old fashion, southern fish fry. My cholesterol level has tripled since being here and I don't want to know if the 10 pounds I lost before the trip has come back.
Later in the day, we will come back to Grandpa's for, call an ambulance, an old fashion, southern fried chicken and biscuit supper. At least I won't have to eat all next week on the road home.
