Florida Vacation 2014 (Part 4)

We were super bummed that our last day in Florida called for dreary hard rain all day. So, we decided to leave a day early and split our drive home in two days. We had exhausted all of our indoor activities.  It was actually nice to not leave super early in the morning or arrive super late coming home, but we would have accepted one more day of sunshine! 

 

Before we left we went out for breakfast at Waffle House. The girls and I had never been to a Waffle House before.  I can't say it's a favorite, but now we've been! We also stopped by a gift shop for the girls to pick out a little souvenir.  I always loved doing that when I was a little girl. 

 

We stayed the night in Nashville and spent the next morning with John's brother and sis-in-law.  I'm so glad we got to see them :)

 

Until next time, Florida!

Thanks for the memories!

 Here are a few extra pics-

All the girls were complaining about the sun in their eyes. I wish we had gotten a sunset pick with them. oh well!

A few minutes before this photo was taken, Payton was crying because we were leaving Florida. She said, "I don't want to leave the beach."
