The Wrigley Newton

Wrigley Does Daytona: Part Two

So I was feeling kinda guilty that my entire last post was about me. Mom and Dad had a great time on vacation too, so I thought I would share some of the things they did while in Daytona.

Since Dad was in Knoxville at the VUIIS conference, Mom dropped me off at my condo Sunday morning and then headed down to her condo to rest. And boy did she need it. After dropping her phone in the potty, she was not in the best of moods. She had a great time relaxing by the pool with my cousin Hannah (and listening to High School Musical together), and she read diligently – reading the new book by Dr. David Jeremiah and finishing America: The Last Best Hope volume two. Granted they werent exactly “light” reads, but Mom definately enjoyed it just the same.

Dad finally arrived on Tuesday. And after a quick trip to play with me, they were back pool side with the nieces and nephews. Connor has really perfected his swimming. He even started diving on vacation and playing in the deep end. Thats not really for me, but I am glad that if I ever need saving at the pool, Connor can help me out. Mom and Dad were also pumped that Connor went to the Nationwide series race with them this year. It’s fun to spend time with him and try new things. I, sadly, could not attend the race, but heard it was an exciting time.

Each night Meemom made wonderful dinners. Shrimp night is always Dad’s favorite, and Mom sure loves Mr. Minix’s hushpuppies. After dinner, they played tossing games in the yard with David and Sarah. No running in circles this year, but I can always count on David and Sarah to make sure my parents are having fun.

Overall, Daytona was an huge success. I just wonder, how could we possibly make it any better next year?
Love, Wrigley
