Spring Break

We had such a fun Spring Break this year. The highlights were a trip to the beach, a visit to the waterparks and the girls spending the night at grandma's while Doug and I spent a night out.

We went to New Smyrna Beach (on the east side of FL) with some friends. I had never been to this particular beach, but we had a blast. The girls all played well together and got into he water a little bit. This meant us moms could just hang out and relax and read and talk. I guess we're lucky that it wasn't really hot yet (it was actually really pleasant that day which is unusual for FL in the spring) so we didn't have to get in the water.

For our waterpark we chose Typhoon Lagoon. Again, it wasn't overly warm outside which is why we went there (the water is warmer there). We hadn't been there in awhile so we had fun riding rides and riding the waves in the pool. It was just the girls and I because Doug was working, but we still had fun.

Then, the girls got to spend the night at Grandma Jeryl's house. They got to eat junk food - Johnny Rockets, pizza, etc - and do all kinds of fun things like miniature golf and stuff. While they wer having fun, Doug and I went to Disney for the day and night. We didn't go to the park, but instead hung out at the hotel pool and actually relaxed. Then, we went to dinner and a movie. It was so fun not worrying about getting home to pay the babysitter,etc.

Our Spring Break was great, but the kids were excited to get back to school!!
