Florida!

Well I guess I'm on a role, because I'm already moving on to the next vacation - FLORIDA! Now this is my kind of trip. We've been going ever since I can remember, and I don't think we've missed a year, though the location has changed a few times. But it always stays on good ol' 30A - a place I would truly love to call home for awhile, but once again that's probably a whole different post for the future. Anyway, the annual Gregory family vacation took place over the 4th of July this year. Dad (good ol' Griswold), mom, Adrianna, and Tanner all drove in the Navigator while Brandon (wheelchair and all), John, and I took the Land Rover. We left on the 3rd and spent the night in wonderful DeFuniak Springs (now there's an exciting town!) But it did make Saturday alot more fun, we only had to drive about 45 minutes, and it gave us a whole extra beach/pool day which is always good!! We met Meme and Mitchell there, along with Jodi, William, and of course Hayden! We normally all stay in one house, but since our family continues to grow, we split up this year, but were not far apart! Jodi, William, Hayden, and Meme all stayed at Cal's house in Rosemary while the rest of us stayed in a great house in Seacrest (I just love Seacrest!) It was a perfect vacation, except for Brandon's little incident which he did not let ruin his vacation! This is by far my most favorite vacation of the entire year. I look forward to it every time! There is nothing like a whole lot of Gregory love! It is so nice to just be able to relax by either the beach or pool during the day, eat amazing food at night, and then of course take the golf cart for a little spin. This year we saw the never-ending firework show at Rosemary which was great! A little long, but great! It was supposed to rain EVERY DAY, but only ended up raining like once or twice, which is always a good excuse to go shopping! John's dad and Ashley even met us for dinner one night which was great. The trip was pretty "eventless" until our way home. Leave it to us to leave a wheelchair in the middle of a gas station parking lot. Yep, we did it! Good thing Brandon is a good sport and could laugh about it...later. There's just nothing like a week of relaxation on 30A with your favorite people! I'm already counting down the days until next year's Florida vacation! :)
