Happy Thanksgiving!

Well, I committed the worst bloggers nightmare and we took a trip to Florida for Thanksgiving and had a wonderful time enjoying family, swimming, eating, shopping, zoo keeping, zip line crazineness, more eating, more shopping and I FORGOT MY CAMERA!

 So we hope you all had a great Thanksgiving too and hopefully soon I will post the pictures I took with my phone, but until then you will all just have to wonder how much fun the McMahon Clan had in Florida with sunny skies and 80 degrees everyday!

basketball, Turkey, ham, swimming, many trips to the park, continental flambe, botique stores, BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS, POPPY, MARA AND MEGGIE BIRTHDAYS, TEA PARTIES, fancy nancy,  world market, wine, zoo, Meg O' Malley's, running, for the love of grandparents all in one place(mimi, poppy, pop-pop,gramma,grampa), smiles, cat chasing, zip lining, gatorade, downtown, new running sneakers, Daddy's favorite store that he wishes he could pick up and bring to new jersey(Island Inspirations), afternoon naps, mommy and daddy time, massages and facials, football all day everyday, swinging and sliding at the park.....and a whole lot more of great fun had by all! The kids even got to celebrate an early christmas with gramma and grampa!
