After the Christmas party, the next few days were wonderfully low key. Breakfasts on the lanai.
We enjoyed tooting around in the golf cart
plenty of shopping and Hannah enjoyed tons and tons of time with her grandparents! Craft time
We love the relaxed atmosphere in the villages and it’s great to step aside from daily routines and just share time together.
Our favourite tree. It’s so beautiful and it’s so different from anything that we have at home.
Hannah found a new friend when we were shopping but mommy and nana said, ‘no!’ I didn’t budget for an extra plane seat for Olaf!
This story still makes me laugh! On the Saturday when we were driving home after touring all over The Villages, the cart shuttered a bit and I looked down to see this:
Although we were only about 10 minutes from home I was pretty sure we weren’t going to make it, especially with 4 of us in the cart. Oops!!
I called dad and he came to rescue us by brining the charger…and lots of digs to rent a (NOISY…ick!!) gas cart next time. Um…nope!
We needed to plug in for a bit so dad took Hannah and Larry back to the house while Sharon and I waited for the cart to charge up…tucked into the entrance of a closed bank as it was the only outlet we could find. Larry and I asking, ‘What were we to do?’
Sharon and I made the best of it but catching some last rays before flying home. Thankfully the sirens we heard went elsewhere. Phew!!
Once we were charged up and Sharon had helped navigate me back to the road I suddenly shouted, ‘I’m outta here! See ya!!’ and floored it! LOL! I looked back to see her doubled over in laughter! Yes, I am my father’s daughter!!
Oh how we love this family time together!!
I am so thankful Hannah and I are privileged to spend this time with her grandparents!
