A Seaside Christmas
We are very fortunate to have our “home away from Dallas” be a beautiful tourist destination in Florida! A few miles away from our home, you can find the beautiful town of Seaside, also where the Truman Show was filmed. Yesterday I had a few hours to waste, so I strolled in and out of the quaint shops and absolutely loved looking at all the beautiful Christmas decorations. This is paradise. There is nothing better than enjoying the beach off-season. This is absolutely spectacular!
