Islamorada

On a whim, we decided to go down to the Keys during Christmas break. Our original intentions were to drive down to Key West, see some sights and then drive back to a more northern Key for a hotel room to Shorten the drive home. As far south as we are, it's still a good 5 hour drive without traffic. With, now that's a different story. We got about 30 miles from Key West, along with a bajillion of our closest friends when we decided to flip a U-turn and go check into our hotel and just have fun there. We had dinner at a nice restaurant, watched the ;restaurant staff feed some enormous fish, enjoyed a small Sunset Celebration and capped the evening off with a family hot tub soak. It was very nice and even relaxing.

At our hotel. Hammocks are on my list of top ten enjoyable things. Even with four kids climbing all over me, it was still great.
One of the reasons that hammocks are so great. The view!
Father/Daughter sweetness.
Father/Son antics!
Brotherly love.
The locals say that it's dead around there in September and October, so well will try for another Key West trip then. Any one want to join us?

I love the picture of you and Jess. Why? 1) Because it's a nice picture of the two of you. 2) I can see that you are tightly holding on to the monkey backpack as your little monkey tries to run away from you.

This made me smile.

You guys are so fun. Count us in on your next trip! I keep thinking that we need to get down there for a tour.

What a fun trip! I'm jealous--that place looks beautiful! If we ever want to get away, we could probably go someplace like Uvalde or D'Hanis.

How fun! I miss being able to drive and go see fun and neat things. Your family is just the cutest!
