Grandparents

I am completely thankful for Grandparents. I don't know how I would manage all of my brood without the gracious help from our parents. We have the best of both worlds..A set of grandparents within walking distance that help with day to day operations so to say and then we have a set of grandparents that live relatively close and live on a lake and have way too many fun things for little kids to do. Mike and I started noticing something interesting about Jackson. He would all of a sudden wistful sigh and would say "Mommy, I miss my Grandmamma and Granddaddy." So Mike is driving the two older kids half way to Gainesville. They are spending the next three days with their grandparents and I am sure will not even have time to miss us a bit. Thanks Sue and Jerry! I fondly remember summers spent up north with my grandparents. I am happy that they will have the same experience as part of their formation.

Are you from Gainesville? Or were you just driving there? I grew up in Gainesville and family still lives there. I used to tromp aroung the Jupiter area. Lived PSL, Stuart, WPB. Love the Jupiter Crab House!

No actually, I am from Jupiter and Mike is from Merritt Island. We met in Gainesville at the University of Florida and stayed for several years after college. Mikes extended family lives in and around Gainesville, so his parents retired there. You know Gator country and such. I hate to break it to you but the Jupiter Crab Company is our of business, actually for several years now but I am sure you would like Jetty's just as well or better.
