Day 268 - September 25

One of the great things about going to Florida for vacation is that we generally get to see at least some family while we're here. We didn't get to see Jason's brother and his family this time around, but we did see his grandmother and aunt on the way down.

And then we made the short-ish drive over to St. Pete to see my brother, Ryan and his family. They recently transferred down here from Rhode Island and it was awesome to spend a good part of the day with them.

The best part is seeing the kids together. We decided that Cate and Lizzie (their youngest) have the exact same nose. And Jacob (their oldest) and Michaela somehow know that they're cousins even though they've hardly had the chance to spend any time together yet in their short lives. Gabby (their middle one) had her work cut out for her, keeping up with the big kids.

After going out for dinner, we headed to a gelato shop Ryan had taken us to 5 years ago when they were last stationed down here and we visited on our way out on a cruise. Michaela and Jacob grabbed hands and ran through the little park together. Adorable!
