Welcome home from Florida!

I took these pictures today. When we got home yesterday, the driveway was completely covered in snow. We shoveled the side Roger was able to shovel before he left (that only had a bout 8 inches in it) and did as much as we could do of the other side.

I'm seriously trying to find someone to plow the rest out for me. Know anyone?

We're supposed to get 6 more inches between today and tomorrow. I just can't imagine! There's noplace to PUT the snow when you're shoveling it!

And this is what our patio looks like:

"Junior Museum"

Panama City has a Children's Museum. We went there today and the kids LOVED it. Ian, who has been *SO* stubborn the last few days had the best time and didn't fight us at all when it was time to leave. He got right in his seat in the car, let Papa buckle him in, and didn't fuss, whine, or scream about anything! It was SO nice to have the "regular" Ian for a change, instead of "vacation" Ian, who is really not a joy to be around at all.

Of course now, he's not taking a nap, so the day is going down the crapper fast.


^there's a snake in there?






^"stand next to the dinosaur and let me take your picture!"
(That's the "best" shot of the 3 I was able to snap before they ran away)


Real live boat right inside!


And a grocery store!


Putting on a puppet show

Alligator Lake

We didn't see any Alligators at Alligator Lake in St. Andrews State Park... but Ian sure was looking for them.

Play Do'h

It's delightful.

Wherever the Gulf Winds Blow Us

It might not be warm enough to swim in the sea, but we're enjoying the sun, just the same.
