The Cotton Family: Trip home to Florida

Well...I'm finally trying to catch up on my blogs. The week before Michael and I left for NY I was able to come home to Florida to visit with family. As most of you know we had to fly the children home to Florida so Michael and I could spend our 10th anniversary together in NY. I am so thankful that I have family that is willing to take care of the kids for me while we celebrated! My sister and mother rearranged their schedules to take care of the kids. My mother took vacation from work and made sure all the kids had a great time! I am so appreciative for both of them....I always know that they will help at the drop of a hat! I love you guys!

I didn't get a lot of pictures at home because I was trying to save my camera space for NY since I would not be home to download any pictures. I basically had to pack for NY and FL in the same bag...plus pack the 3 kids....so my space for items was limited. Needless to say that everytime they had to weigh my luggage I was over the 50 pound limit they set and had to rearrange items to pass...hehe! It was crazy trying to get everyone and everything together!

I flew from FL to NY and Michael flew from VA to NY. We met up at the airport!

We stayed at my sister's house. We had a great visit. James always jokes that I need to come back and stay because my sister cooked some really great dinners while I was there. She really took care of me and the kids. Kristi is so giving and compassionate....she's my best friend!

My time passed way to quickly in Florida! I'm not used to living away and trying to get a visit in with everyone...so I am going to do much better the next time!
