Thanksgiving Weekend

Just got back from Florida and have to say that coast to coast traveling is no fun...it just takes so long to get where you are going!!! We left Tuesday night for Jacksonville...landed in Atlanta at 5:45am on Wednesday morning (mind you feels like 2:45am) and then got on another plane at 7 to head down to Jacksonville. Jeff's parents picked us up at 8 (thank you Ma and Pa Goz for waking up so early to come get us) and we then drove about an hour to the lake house in Keystone Heights. Made it to the house around 9:30am---10 hours of traveling! Same thing all over today except that we left the lake at 5:45am to make an 8am flight that was late to Atlanta so we had to RUN from the E terminal to the A terminal to catch our connection! Just not fun! The good thing is that traveling west you make up some time...our flight landed at 12:30 and we got to have a nice lazy day with the dogs (even let them hang out on the couch with us, what a treat!)

We had a great Thanksgiving...tons of food. All the girls chipped in and cooked while the boys did their thing and watched football (they got to do the dishes--no dishwasher at the lake!!!).

Although it had been raining all day, the weather cleared up enough for us to eat outside with the lake in the background. It was truly a gorgeous night and was great to be surrounded by friends and family. We all have so much to to be Thankful for! Janet--we missed you so much!!!!


On Saturday, we went to the UF-FSU football game...GO GATORS!!! Florida killed Florida State, which was the perfect way to end off the weekend! Even better, my Mom and Dad drove up from Palm Beach Gardens to hang out with Jeff and I for the day--what troopers, that is not a short drive! Love you Mom and Dad! Here's our rowdy crew at halftime...
