A week in Florida

Hello from FLORIDA!!  Things are good here.  I have mainly been spending time with Tanessa and Addi.  It was fun to be here for her Birthday and get to see her open her presents and blow out the candles on her cake.  She had a little party at the park.  It was pretty chilly that day...we had to stay out in the sunshine to keep warm, but she had fun.
We also had a fun night on Saturday, when we went to a place called The Colorado Fondue Company.  It was quite an amazing experience...we had a smoked Gouda fondue pot for our appetizer with assorted breads, veggies and apples.  Then we had Sirloin Steak, Filet Minon, Lobster tail, and shrimp for our main course.  This was served with a pot of broth filled with pasta and raviolis, and red potatoes.  Also they brought out 700 degree granite blocks to sear our meat on.  You could cook the seafood in the boiling broth and sear the steak on the hot rocks!  It was really, really, really good!!  The filet minon would literally melt in your mouth!  We also ordered a peanut butter infused chocolate pot for desert...complete with strawberries, marshmallows, pretzels, pound cake and brownies to dip in it!  We were all so very full, we thought we would pop!  It was really a fun time, and something we all enjoyed...Jake for the experience of it...Tess and I were in it for the food!  Ha!
I chose one of the coolest weeks in Florida to come I guess...we haven't been able to go to the pool or anything, but that doesn't matter much...I mainly just wanted to come see the girls and visit and hang out...and with Jake in school, that has been our days pretty much.  I can't believe a week has passed already, but it's about time to go home, so...I will miss Addi's cute little face and her darling little voice...she is pretty funny with her newfound little vocabulary...she cracks me up!

Your dinner out sounded YUMMMMMY! What fun. Glad you've had a good time -- I'm sure Tess and Addi loved it too.
Have a safe trip home.

Love, Mom

When you read this you will be in Florida no more. Sorry you have to come back to life in Idaho. I wish we could go visit Florid sometime soon. Hopefully we can go together someday.
