XMAS DECORATING FLORIDA STYLE
We made it! Flying on the 21st was a very good idea...our 2 flights were full, but everything was on time and no baggage lost :)
It is hilarious to see how Floridians decorate for Xmas-the huge blow-up Santas, snowmen, the globes, 10 foot lighted figurines, garland, etc, next to the sand and surf. It just doesn't fit. We do have a favorite, though, where the homeowner put lights on all the palm trees in his yard-wound around the trunks and scattered in the fronds...that is how to xmas decorate Florida-style!
We did the mall and some local shopping-actually fun as we were all together. I had a glorious mani/pedi today, and now feel flop worthy. The manicurist asked where I was from because my feet were so pale....I still gave her a nice tip :)
Getting ready for one of my favorite activities-wrapping gifts!!!! No paper cuts, please!
Chrissy-a bed is totally available for you here if you bust out of Swarthmore!
.....more later from the sunny south...
