We've been in Florida for a week. We stayed with a lady from Church at her Condo. The weather was cool, but not to cold. I only got in the ocean once and about froze to death doing it. I mostly walked on the beach and swam at the condo's pool and hot tub. We did about everything, went boating, swimming, bowling, shopping and golfing. Played tennis for the first time and did it very badly. I also took lots and lots of pictures.


We all dressed up one day and got pictures made on the beach.

The guys very much objected to dressing up and getting there pictures made.
 It was very windy that day.

Here is our sand castle that we built. It is bigger than it looks in the pictures.

I know it is terribly late to be posting about Thanksgiving, but I wanted to wait till I had the pictures loaded.
 On Thanksgiving day we had a small get together with our family at our home. My Grandparents came as well as my Great Grandmother, Great Uncle, Aunt Mary Lynn and Uncle Pete.For the first time at our home on Thanksgiving,  our whole family were able to sit at one big table. The food was very good, Pawpaw says the food gets better every year.
 Sadly my brother and his family were not able to come, nor was my Uncle Steve's family able to come. But we hope to see both soon.

And now pictures:

Here are the place settings. We made 15 of them.

And I would like to announce the berth of my new cousin Neil Harrington S. Although I have only seen pictures of him, I can tell that he is adorable. I can't wait to find out who he most resembles in the family. I would give you more details, but I'm not sure how much he weighed or anything like that. I'm afraid I don't have a picture to show you what he looks like.
 

My most major accomplishments this week:

1. I learned to play "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"on my violin. It's not the greatest sounding, but you can sometimes tell I'm playing a tune.
2. I finished filming the tree scene for our movie "Penrod".
3. I started a Director's Blog on our web site.
5. I learned how to color highlight my writing.
Not much, but it was all fun.
