Thousand Trails Employee Dinner

Last night was the Thousand Trails Employee Christmas dinner. They served all sorts of pasta's including, fettuccine, lasagna, rigatoni, veal parmesan, and sausage with onions and peppers. Every single dish was absolutely wonderful. My brother and his boss Becky cooked it all and defiantly over did themselves . We all sat and ate and talked and had a wonderful time! The more we are here the more we are becoming friends with more and more people and the staff here really is like one big family. We like it here a lot more than we thought we would and it is great. In other news not to much going on apart from Thousand Trails things. One new thing that did happen is that we got a new dog named Ava. We are not completely sure what breed she is but she is a very sweet dog and is as cute as can be! She was a early Christmas gift for the family. I also received a new cell phone from my Sister as a early Christmas gift which I am also enjoying very much! We are beginning to feel the holidays upon us and hope everyone else is to!

Here is Everyone Enjoying the Delicious meals


And here is our new dog Ava!

Second Orlando happy hour!

Tonight was the second happy hour this winter here in Orlando. It was hosted by Richard and Diane Mattsen who decided to host said happy hour last minute. They were great hosts and we thank you. Today was also Rich's (Pagliaro) birthday and he and Dee came for a while then went out to eat. Tomorrow is the Christmas dinner thousand trails is having. I cannot believe Christmas is almost here. I am looking forward to Christmas and the new year and for more friends to arrive in FL. I hope everyone is staying warm and are looking forward to the holidays!


Here we have (left to right) Vicki, Bob, Dee,Mira,Rene,Rich.

First Happy Hour in Orlando!!

Last night was our first happy hour in Orlando! After Jack & Diane arrived we knew it would not be long before a happy hour! So after me asking if and when a happy hour could be arranged Diane picked the warmest day of the week and set the date! We had a great time talking, eating, and drinking! It is so great to be surrounded by such nice and loving friends for the holiday season. I cannot wait until the next happy hour and would like to thank Diane for hosting this one and inviting us!

We Are Settled!

We have settled down In Thousand Trails Clermont FL for about a year and a half until I leave home. My brother Aric got a job working in the store here. And we are pretty excited for many reasons. One is My Brother and I And hopefully My Dad are getting motorcycles. That of which I am sure will bring forth new adventures. Another thing Is we all plan on working which should be another new adventure. My dad already has a job interview at a law firm for a job and my mom thinks she has job lined up and my brother already has one and I am still hunting. But I sure soon enough we will all have a job which will be something new (Mostly for Me). My parents are having a harder time of the thought of not traveling then my brother and I, Hopefully they will adjust to it okay. I hope we have some new activities and adventures here for me to blog about.

Living life in one place!

Florida Here We Come!

Today we left from Outdoor World in Williamsburg VA and are Florida bound! We have been traveling in the truck or at least 10 hours and have a ways to go. This stretch to Florida is are last trip for 2010. We are even planning on staying in Peace River for the whole winter and not go to Clermont but nothing is set in stone. As for now I think most of us are all excited to get some sun and see some familiar faces. But for now no pickle ball for me and no seeing familiar faces or anything for that matter. We went to the Eye Doctor yesterday and found out I have a eye infection. It is not contagious but I cannot wear contact lenses for a week and I do not own glasses and the were not able get some before we left. So I can not only not play any pickle ball and I have trouble just getting around. But just being back in FL and getting some fun and sun should be great!

New york!

Last week we moved from MI to NY. This is are first time staying in the RV in new york. My parents and Aric have been to the New York City on a Business trip and i have driven trough NY on our way to Maine, it is cool to be staying here for the first time for me. We are doing a job here so are not getting to see any of the New York wonders. Luckily we go see Niagara falls next week. Then another job and then to Chesapeake Bay. We are enjoying having cable TV at this campground since my Dad is gone with the truck all day there is a lot of free time with no where to go and the internet is spotty. We are having a calm week until a fun filled next week and i know there will be some great posts and pictures coming up soon.

Cellina, Ohio

Right now we are in Celina Ohio doing a job my dad got for this next week. It is a pretty nice area and we are close to town which is nice. Yesterday we went to the fair in a near by town and saw The British Invasion which is a Beatles cover band. It was fun and the band was pretty good I say "pretty good" because they did not come close to The Fab Four another Beatles cover band my Dad and I saw last year. But none the less they were fun to watch and Aric and I got a kick out of them. This upcoming Sunday we head to Michigan and get to pick up my oldest sister and she is staying with us for a week. I am very exited to do that and I will also get to see my family on my Mom's side which i do not see very often. I think it will be very fun I am looking forward to it.
