Vacation- Part 1

I am back! I made through vacation with the entire family and the Outlaws!
We had a great time. Chris was surprised I was ol by the end. Usually by day 5 I am toast. I am usually crabby with zero patience left. For some reason not this time. YA!

The girls wanted a silly pictures on the way there.
That is Chris's beer!


The kids spent a lot of time in the pool. We brought Tommy's life jacket with us and he swam the whole pool instead of being stuck on the stairs. It was great.

Yes, he was playing with a Little Mermaid toy.

We hit the beach the beach.


The kids found a whole muscle. It was squirting water at them when it opened slightly!
Tommy made a picture in the sand of him and I.
My kids!
OK, that is all I have time for this morning! I will post a few more later!

Vacation- Part 1

I am back! I got home Saturday evening. We had a great time in Florida.

The highlight of the trip was going to Hollywood Studios and seeing Star Wars there. Tommy is a HUGE fan.

He got to make is own Light Saber.
He didn't put it down the rest of the week.
He battled like an American Idol
He battled Grampy on the beach.

At the house

And even Grammy in the driveway!

Katie got a driving lesson from Uncle Rob. As you can see, it didn't work out so well!


Thank God he has a lot of patience!

Our Vacation in Florida......

I am finally home and getting a chance to post some pictures.

We went to New Smyrna Beach, where my in laws have a home. It was just Tommy, Katie and I. Chris stayed home with Sam and Casey. It was a last minute trip. We decided I would go Thanksgiving night. I purchased my tickets Friday and hopped on a plane Sunday!

Chris took us to the airport. You can see what a Daddy's girl Kate is!


We went to SeaWorld one day. The park was empty. We didn't wait in any lines at all!

Here is Tommy and Katie navigating the way.
The park was decorated for Christmas. It was gorgeous!


Katie didn't want her picture with the tree, just Monkey did!



We saw a neat Polar Express exhibit/movie. You walked through the Artic section that they now called "The North Pole". It was decorated and smelled like Christmas! Santa was even there!
Katie wanted no part of seeing him. Tommy on the other hand, listed off every Transformer he would like.

Me and Shamu



We had dinner with Shamu. It was the highlight of the day. We were so close!




Here is our waiter. I loved him, he carded me then said "Wow, I would never have guessed you were that old!" Hmmm......I think that was a compliment!


We ended the night seeing the best Shamu Christmas show. Man, those people know how to put a show on. It is amazing.
Katie thought it was to loud



Then she fell asleep!

Vacation is coming to an end.....

We are sad to head home tomorrow. We have had a great time.

We went to SeaWorld the other day. We had a ball! The park was empty! We didn't have to wait in any lines. We saw a cool Polar Express show that then let us through the "North Pole" and we got to meet Santa. Tommy told him the list of Transformers he wanted. Katie would not go near him.

The best was having dinner with Shamu! We sat poolside and had a private show (with many others) and had yummy food. The trainers came to each table to talk to us and answer questions. Tommy's most impoartant questions......"What is Shamu's last name?" Did you know Shamu is ALL the whales last names? We then saw a Shamu Christmas show. I have to say, I have been to SeaWorld 2 other times, this one was by far, the best.

I will have plenty of pictures to show you when I get home. BEWARE!!!
