A Honeymoon Trip

We had been hanging around the house since we got married because we knew Miss Savannah's 1st Birthday Party was coming up and that meant a trip to Jacksonville, Florida. This trip became our honeymoon trip and reminded me of a little song I had heard on the country radio stations in Jacksonville years ago called "Honeymoon in Palatka".

On a different trip, when we went to Palatka, we actually stayed at the Holiday Inn mentioned in the song. You can Google the song and read the lyrics.

Anyway, on our way south, we stopped at a rest area in South Carolina and were shocked to see there was an actual pay phone. We thought these things were extinct.

After a night's rest at our favorite Jacksonville Holiday Inn, we went over to my daughter and son in-law's house for the party. My daughter, Patricia, had made a poster of statistics for Miss Savannah.

When it was time for her cake, the birthday girl dove right in with both hands.

Bunny got to hold her great granddaughter.

Mike took a few turns holding the birthday girl. Savannah always seems interested in Mike, maybe its his beard.

I got a turn at holding the little munchkin. She kept grabbing at the diamond necklace my mother had given me. Maybe one day, I'll give it to her.

The next day Mike and I met my daughter, son in-law and Savannah for brunch. They make a cute couple.

Savannah likes to feed her mommy.

She also likes her fruit. Look at this adorable berry face!

Before we headed back home we made a stop at the local Peterbrooke Chocolate store for some of their movie theater style popcorn that is drenched in creamy milk chocolate. Actually, we made two stops there. The first and much smaller bucket didn't last too long.

In all it was a nice trip and the weather was good. Looking forward to our next trip down to see Miss Savannah.
