More than 6 years ago, on our second Florida vacation, Glenn introduced to a real American Thanksgiving. Back than we still wrote our blog in Dutch (sorry)  but this is what we wrote after that day Dag 16: Thanksgiving…

Why would I start a blog like this? Well today we went back to Richy and Denise to introduce Emily. Our little one behaved really well in the car, she slept he whole 1:40 minutes and during the stops at the gasstation (1,65$/Gallon) and Starbucks.

We arrived around 11 o’clock in Bradenton and the 13 year old dog FDNY (Fidny) wanted to look at Emily right away. We didn’t really figured out that she was barking because she wanted to see the baby too. But after Emily touched her nose everything was fine.

While we were there everything was still the same the blue skies, the weather, the sun, their place, the chats and of course their hospitality!

Soon we had lunch and enjoyed the weather outside. Emily did her best to be part of everything but she got tired and fell a sleep on mama her shoulder while I helped mama eating a cupcake! Mama is not so good at this as Emily as you can see…

Close to the evening we (Emily and I) went out for a walk but she wanted to go back to the house because she cried after we got out of the street until we got back at the house.

Soon it was dinner time and we were lucky because we got the famous and delicious spaghetti & meatballs from chef Richy!

Just after dinner Emily changed in her pajamas and got her final bottle of the day. And that was the cue for us to leave a beautiful and still warm Bradenton behind.

Emily slept before we got on the I-75 (within 5 minutes) and when we got home we put her to bed as if nothing has happened. Let’s hope see sleep till 7:00am like she normally does.
