THE EVERGLADES





We went on an everglades tour on air boats. It was way fun. We convinced our driver to "do brodies" as Denise called it. We call it donuts or cookies. Our driver (the man Mike is sitting by in the last pic) has been around the gators so much that they don't bother him. He can call them to him and he is feeding "mama". She is a wild gator that he has been around since she was little. It was really fun.. More Florida Pictures tomorrow.




Mike found a friend in Florida. Her name was Gina and she is from Haiti. She was pretty cute.
We went a dinner cruise to the infamous Brady mansion. (the drug lord Pres. Clinton pardoned. HELLO!!!) It was amazing. They took us on two ships so you can see the 2nd one behind us and how crowded it was in the little inlets. They used tug boats to make the tight turns. It was amazing to see all the HUGE HOUSES with boat slips out their backyard. Little kids were coming out and waving at us.
Russ and Denise and I on the top of the ship. Ali and Bridger Mackey are on the left of us for those who know them.

Turnberry beach





  • The Hotel has its own little area of beach that's just a short shuttle ride away.
  • Denise and I are sitting at the restaurant at the beach.
  • I didn't get enough at the restaurant so I thought I would have a little barnacle on the side.
  • The last picture is the shore line from the beach owned by the hotel. It was so much fun.

Laguna Pool


This is the pool at the hotel. It had a water slide behind the water fall and a lazy river as well. Notice the round loungers with shade? They were awesome. Waiters would come and take your order for lunch or something to drink right there. We were way spoiled.

Florida!!!! Fun!!!!




  • here are pics of our hotel room. It was pretty rough!!
  • Every day they would clean your room and every night they would come back in and clean again and pull down the bed covers and leave your water and slippers by your bed. CRAZY!!!!

FINALLY!!!!







It has been awhile, but with Mandi's help we are back.
  • The first pictures are of the Primary talent show. Of course Mikey did Lego's and Dad played the piano.
  • For Mikey's birthday he wanted Lego's and a Tom Brady Jersey. He was WAY excited!
  • The other morning we got a call from our neighbor Karen and she told us that there was a Moose in her backyard. He ended up at the care center and the Forest Service had to move him back into the mountain.
  • Mikey and the Johnson boys were playing basketball and Mikey took a elbow to the lip. Ouch!
  • The last picture is of the Pine Wood Derby. He didn't place, but we had lots of fun.

Mom and Dad are leaving for Florida, so fun Florida pictures to come!!!!!!

Grizwald Family Christmas???






We had so much fun having everyone home.
All Mikey wanted for Christmas was Legos.
Well, he was in Heaven. He and Jocelyn
had so much fun playing in the snow together.
Clay and Jocelyn had fun playing with "Baby AlIVE".
That's all we needed was one more poopy diaper to
change.
