Destination: Crestview,FL


As part of the Univ. of Florida Medical School 4th year cirriculum Philip is doing different rotations around different parts of Florida. This past month we spent 2 weeks with the Roberts family in Crestview, FL where Philip shadowed his brother-in-law Mike (an internist).

Approx. 4 hours northwest of Gainesville, Crestview is not just a small town, but a very happening place! We had non stop fun with our family in Crestview. Here's what we did:

Went swimming at Foxwood Country Club, ate at the Wild Olive, saw G.I. Joe in Destin, went to the beach, ate at Fudpuckers, went to a Carnival park, had Cold Stone Ice Cream, saw The Time Traveler's Wife, ate at a Japanese Restaurant, saw Julie & Julia in Niceville, ate at Giuseppes', ate at the Waffle House, went to the Gulfarium, saw the armory Museum, picked Julianna and Ashley up from their first day of 3rd grade and 1st grade at their brand new Elementry School, Riverside. Toured Dr. Robert's new Medical office, and buzzed Max's hair.

We had so much fun! Thank you to the Robert's Family for sharing their home and exciting lives with us for the past two weeks. We appreciate your love and support!


The gang having fun in the pool. Ashley, Tommy, Julianna Philip, Mike, Andrew, and Max.
Max loves water and he thinks he can swim all by himself. One Day.


The Armory museum. There were quite a few war planes and jets on display from all different Wars and conflicts. There were even some helicopters and bomb shells - like the MOAB. The boys had fun seeing all the planes.
The three boys with the aircraft, Tommy, Andrew and Max.
Tommy the pilot! You could sit in the pilot seat of an airplane and the boys had fun inspecting the cockpit!


The new Hair cut. We took off about 2 inches. He looks more like a little boy now.

The Gulfarium: we saw sharks, birds, dolphins, sea lions, turtles, sting rays, seals, and lots of fish! (Me, Juliana, Ashley, Andrew, Max and Tommy. Ingrid is taking the picture)
