Hi Jackie, We had a great time. I didn't even mind the rain the one day. My husband took the older boys to Pensacola and I read a book for three hours while the baby napped. What a treat that was! The condo had everything we needed and it was so nice not to have to pack the crib and highchair. Thanks again for all of your ideas and assistance. Colleen

Jackie: Just wanted to let you know we had a great time – my nephew (Air Force) was renting a different unit. Your condo is much nicer and has a better layout than that one. Everyone hung out at your place. I have attached a picture of my family that we took on Sunday. Thanks again! Kathi
