Trip to Florida
Saturday, January 9th, 2010In early December 2009 we took a trip to Florida to watch Andre’s sister Heather graduate from college. We decided to make a long weekend of it so we got to bake cookies and celebrate an early Christmas and Hanukkah with them.
Congrats are in order. Not only did Heather graduate from college while we were there, she had also just finished her first week in the classroom as a teacher (contract and all). So congrats! We’re all thrilled for you and very proud!
