Day 2-No sun

It can’t always be blue skies and butterflies!

But somehow this is what we expect during vacation. So the weather called for sunny and hot but it was sooo not! Therefore we were kinda wishing we would have went to Disney. It wasn’t a total loss though. The cousins played very well together. The girls played tennis and the boys fished. My son was in his glory to be getting some attention from his cousin Justin (12- same grade as Riss). Even though these guys live only a mile from us, we barely see them for reasons that will appear more clearly in an upcoming post. It was so cute at one point when Justin’s Dad said to him about something “That’s real smart!” Kev sticks up for him and says “He IS really smart. He taught me everything I know! Except for biking!” We all got a kick out of that and thought it was so cute. My Mom also brought Kev to the driving range and I guess he did really good. I stuck with miniature golf with my cousins and was really surprised that I did so well. I was just getting lucky shot after shot and it was kinda funny cuz I usually really stink at it! Justin ended up quitting because he was losing and said I was cheating. I laughed it off knowing he’s just a poor sport, kid. His mom was laughing too.

Just as we thought it may be getting nice enough to go to the pool for a bit, it started sprinkling so we just sat at the villa for a while. I colored and visited with my grandparents. Then eventually we did go spend about an hour in the shady coolness at the pool.

We ate dinner in again and my Mom was tired and the kids wanted to stay and play with their cousins. So just Al and I went out and browsed some souvenir shops to pass the time. I got a cute pug key holder and a couple cute bracelets real cheap (one made of shell and the other two silver plated dolphins that come together at the top).

On this night the kids were invited to stay the night at my cousins villa and I was already thinking about vacation ending and going home. I’m a creature of habit I guess and if I’m not in the sun, it’s not vacation in Florida to me.
