Florida 2014 Part 1

 The End of May we packed up and left for Florida, well the kids and I with Grandma, we piled in the Car and Drove to Colorado, We were able to catch a game of my Brother and his wife playing Softball and then My Aunt met up with us for Dinner and we stayed the night near the airport so we could fly out from Denver which saved us loads of money and was convenient as we needed to be in Denver for a wedding at the end of our Vacation before heading home. It all worked out nicely. We are so glad Grandma decided to come with us for a week adventure in Florida, we had so much fun with her, SO MUCH! We went swimming almost everyday if not two or three times a day we relaxed at the pools, we went to down town disney and did some shopping, and playing, we went to M& M world and the Mall, and we went to a couple of Beach's mainly St. Pete's which was lovely, so good to be at the Ocean. The kids were a little concerned we were not headed to disney the day we landed but they got a little taste at Downtown Disney and got it out of their system.
 These little Magic lovers, they are so fun....Audryn Did great on her first flight. She rode with my Mom and I had the two big kids on the row behind her, She slept most of the flight, and the big kids were awesome so well behaved. I was a little nervous because of the traveling the day before that it might be a bit of a nightmare but they were too happy to be going on vacation to be naughty. We landed late at night and had a rough check in to our resort but once that was squared away the week with Grandma was just pure fun!

 We love going to the Rainforest Cafe one of our favorite places to eat


 And Mom learned something new, the kids love, I mean LOVE lego's of course the small ones perfect for baby to choke on, they were like kids in a candy store, but there was no candy to be seen just lego's and all the booths that you could make your own inventions, they could not get enough of it. This is James waiting for his car to race



 The hulk made out of lego's it was fun to see
their wheels a turning.This was our first vacation or major outting without Doug and we did miss him so, but since we were going so far and he only has so much time off, we wanted to be able to do a little more then his schedule would allow, so he sent us a week early to have some fun. The beach was wonderful so what I needed. The water was perfect for swimming and it was hard to keep the kids from going afar, they wanted to go out to sea,  We collected shells and made sand Castles, we really enjoyed the beaches and relaxing

 Dryn's first time to the Ocean

  What is a day at the beach without some Ice cream to cool one down. We picked the perfect week to be there is was warm but not blistering hot, and only rained once.

 Even audryn caught the disney bug, I put her down for a nap and came back to find her snuggling with Mickey, one of the big kids had shared with her and she loved it. She slept with Mickey most of the rest of the trip.
