We enjoyed a house that was on Manasota Key. It had a brand new heated pool and hot tub. It also was located on the inter-coastal so the boys could fish with the kayaks. The gulf was a short walk down the driveway and across the street. It was a perfect location. Summer loved running along the dock and playing on the private beach across the street.
We had fun spending time with Billy, Kristen, Gabriella, Gina, Charlie, Mel, Henry, and Julia. Billy took us boating a couple times and we were able to go jet-skiing too which was a blast. We spent Christmas morning watching Charlie’s kids opening gifts. Then we raced back to our rental to open presents with our kids. Then we spent several hours at Siesta Key Beach. That evening, we enjoyed some Chinese food with Charlie’s family.
We didn’t want to leave to go back to Nebraska, especially since we were looking at below zero temperatures when we returned. Fortunately I had a beautiful and warm home to return to. We will make it the best we can the next few years until we can move to a warmer climate.
