and drove across Florida to Parrish - let me tell ya - there is nothing in the middle of Florida...nothing. After making it to John and Joy's (Sissy's brother and sister-in-law), we settled in for a few days.
John, Joy, Bob and Sissy left Alex with Pop and Dee Dee and headed to Outback for date night:
Thursday, we went up to St. Pete to run errands and couldn't help but stop and have lunch at El Cap. If you are ever in the St. Pete area, they have the BEST BURGERS!!
Mom and Joy put together a fantastic Christmas dinner for Thursday night. It was delicious and we all ate too much. Then we all put on scarves, coats, hats and gloves for a family photo that is still on Joy's camera. We'll post that later.
July 4th was very relaxing. Sissy tried to learn how to download movies via the internet. There are so many issues with this. Not the least of which was the dude at Big Kmart. Aside from being a total geek and trying to get us to hire him to fix our computer (which isn't broken), he basically followed Sissy around the electronics section until Bob had to ask him to stop flirting with her. Well, that's not exactly what happened. Sure wish we had taken a photo of him.
We wanted to download the Alfred Hitchcock classic The Birds. It was filmed in Bodega Bay where we are moving. The downloading didn't really go as planned, so we're just going to rent it before we leave. I thought I was so smart, but I think there are still some kinks. If anyone has any advice, I've got a 25 pack of DVD-Rs that I need to use...
Right now we are chilling in a hotel room in Clearwater. Tonight we are having dinner at our friends Mavis and Johns' - looking forward to a really great night!
