Florida! Our first stop was to spend time with my parents. Oh, how I miss them. Can I just say that they are the BEST.:) Sweet Lindsay called me (all the way from England) while I was there! My parents met her last year when she and her family were vacationing at Disney World. Lindsay asked if I could take some pictures of my parent's house so she could have a peek. Here you go, dear sister.:)
This is their lovely pool complete with hammock and Adirondack chair for relaxing. Adirondack chairs are not the most comfortable to sit it but they sure are charming! My girls love the hammock but I have a hard time getting out gracefully. tee hee...
I could spend some serious time right here. One evening it rained while we were there and it was the perfect spot for enjoying the storm. Comfy chairs and a covered area for snuggling and reading. Bliss. Bubbles ready and waiting- just in case.:)
A quiet little spot.
My Mom had the house decorated for Easter. She did not overlook a thing. It's amazing how she makes even the smallest things so very special.:)
This is a view from the kitchen table. I love my Mom's "Napoleon Ivy" china and the pool is not bad, either.:)
Katie loved helping Grandma make french toast at Bilbo Baggin's restaurant. That's what the girls call it when we get together with my parents. I'm not sure when it started but it's certainly stayed with us! Don't you love having special names and expressions that are just for your family?:)
Love the colors in the picture below. I can't wait to pick blackberries this summer!

Your parents home is gorgeous! Sounds like your mom has all the special touches. Hope you have a wonderful time visiting. Have a great vacation!
What a beautiful house! I'm sure you are having (had) a glorious visit! There's something special about returning to Mom's home and getting pampered for a while.
Blessings to you and your family.

Hi Lori
Thanks so much for taking the pictures so nosy little me could see!
Your parents house is amazing. The pool is gorgeous and the little covered area looks perfect for relaxing. Jessica loves the hammock. I love how they have a view of the pool from the dining area. I could never tire of that view. Now when I think of your lovely parents I can imagine them sitting right there eating or relaxing outside.
