Last year we moved in to our new house the day before Thanksgiving. We ordered Thanksgiving dinner (which was actually incredible) from Bentonville Butcher. It was a little crazy. When Spencer's sister Kristina (and her family) came to visit us after Christmas they told us about their super fun Thanksgiving in Florida. She invited us to join them and we tentatively decided we would go - anything that is within a day's drive of us is a pretty good deal.
We booked our condo in September, so it really did take us a long while to commit, but I am so so glad we did. We got down there the Saturday night before Thanksgiving, and had the place for a week.
Our condo was 2 bedrooms 2 bathrooms, our balcony overlooked the ocean and white sand, and it was an amazing time. The first two days were pretty cold, which was ok since one was a Saturday, and Monday (also kinda cold) we wanted to go to the Blue Angels museum in Pensacola anyway. After that, we spent the next 4 days at the beach and in the pool (but mostly at the beach). Being right there made it easy to run up to get stuff, or to make lunch, or whatever else. It was amazing! So fun!! We are sold on this trip and want to make it a tradition.
(We also "celebrated" our 13th anniversary there - gotta love holiday anniversaries that are almost always taken over and NOT celebrated, but whatever...) :)
Spencer prepared his first turkey! And he went all out, and it was amazing.
