Fun with Family

We are definitely not missing the frigid temperatures and snow Maryland has been experiencing. In fact, we are cozy as can be in a 3-bedroom, 2-bath house on the gulf in Indian Shores, Florida. Although the house is small, the many windows afford extraordinary views!

Our bedroom is upstairs and the full width of the house. Here's the view we have from our bedroom:

 

 



My mother, my stepfather, John, my sister, Lisa, and her husband, Lee, flew down to stay with us for awhile. It's been great having them here to enjoy the warm weather and beautiful scenery with us. Mom and John used to spend winters in this area, so we were familiar with Indian Shores from our visits with them. We were not familiar with this particular house, though, and took a chance and rented it. It is very tastefully decorated and, although not perfect, the views make up for anything that we don't like. There are many restaurants and pubs we can walk to, which is nice.

Lisa and Lee had to fly home this morning, but tomorrow night we pick up Claire and Brenden from the Tampa airport, and they will spend the weekend with us. Fun with family will continue!
