After Disney we headed south to spend Thanksgiving with Bethany’s family.

Violet with Aunt Becca and Uncle Chris. Aunt Becca is pregnant with Violet and Archer’s first cousin!

For some reason we got on the subject of coconuts before our trip to Florida. I have childhood memories of working for hours trying to crack a coconut so I told Violet we’d look for one while we were there. I have no idea if there are coconut seasons or not but I was thrilled to see coconuts galore streaming out of some unknown person’s curbside yard trash. I deftly snatched two for Violet; one for cracking open and one to keep.

Here’s a little video Ben made, edited, and added music to all on his phone. Violet got to show the video to her class along with the coconut she brought back.

Picking oranges is one thing Violet strongly associates with visiting Grandma and Grandaddy. She thoroughly enjoys this annual tradition with Grandaddy.

My parents got this jeep a few weeks before our visit. This isn’t the best picture but I feel it just screams sheer joy!

Still loving it.
