Christmas in FL

Christmas, 2021

With Mom and Dad still in FL for healthcare-reasons, we invaded upon St. Petersburg to celebrate the holidays with them.  It was a different kind of holiday than our usual Wisconsin traditions, but we kept many of our main traditions alive and also made some new ones!  Fun times with the whole family, it was special being together to celebrate Christmas.

We started the festivities by decorating the house with Christmas decorations we had brought from our house - ornaments and the like.

Belated birthday celebration for Kristin

Opening our stockings - I received these festive socks

Dad was able to get the homemade stockings when he came back to WI earlier in December
