Florida

We went to Florida for Christmas. It was so much fun. We stayed at a condo on the beach in St. Petersburg. This was the ideal place for collecting shells. In the morning when the tide was low was the best time for collecting shells. Unfortunately a lot of the big beautiful shells we found still had animals inside of them, so I could not bring myself to killing them, well... except for one whose shell was too huge to pass up. We boiled him out of his shell.
The sand was perfect and the weather amazing. It made it hard to come home to blizzard conditions in NY. Fortunately for us the blizzard in NY made it so we had to stay in Florida a few extra days and have time with the kids. Can't complain! Now to find a way to move closer to the girls...
