Florida Break Down

Florida Break Down
We were real lucky this year, and got to visit BOTH our families for Christmas,
which just happen to live on opposite sides of the country.
I think biggie said it best...
"but if i got to choose a coast i got to choose the west,
i live out there so dont go there"
Matt's parents have a ranch an hour from Tampa.
We met up with the rest of the family, and spent most our time there.
It was wonderful!

We saw some bees...

Hung out with family...

(Sadley, we did not have a chance to take a family photo,
and I think my general lack of christmas trip photo documentation
can be attributed to the mass ammount of gillries, friends and fun throughout our trip.)

We played games....
