Home is where the Heart Is

Our "home" for the Holidays
They say there is no place like home on the holidays.  They also say that home is where the heart is.

Right now, Scott and I are in a beautiful vacation house in Anna Maria Island where my parents have shipped their boat to spend the holidays in the Florida sun.  This is hardly our 'home' and we have no family that lives here - and yet we are all here (or will be shortly).  My brothers, my sister, my mom, dad, in-laws and nieces have all traveled here for the holidays.  The house is a buzz with Christmas spirit, love and (after 5pm) lots of 'cheer'.

Home really, truly is where the heart is.

There is no place we'd rather be.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Love,
Brittany & Scott

    Merry Christmas! I love your blog! And now I finally signed into it! Your writting is informative, pointed, inspirational & humorous! Please, please look up my Mom if you guys find yourselves anchored near Nevis, WI! It's a very small, friendly island (no cruise ship parking allowed!). I would recommend renting bikes & cruising the 26 miles 'round the island!
    Enjoy the holiday with your fam & happy journeys to come!

    All the best,
