Spring Break 2011

Spring break has come and gone! We had a great break filled with lots of different activities. We started the break at the beach. We stayed in the condo for 5 nights and soaked up lots of sun. The ocean was a bit too cold, but the girls still loved splashing in the water. At the pool it was cool as well, but the girls didn't mind. We ate at our favorite restaurants, visited the Castillo de San Marcos for the first time and enjoyed the fabulous weather.


We love the beach! We spent every morning playing on the beach. The water was too cold to swim in, but the girls had a blast splashing in it!




Most of our swimming was done at the pool. The girls had a great time swimming after being at the beach. KK is going to freak in a couple of weeks when she starts swim lessons and I get rid of all the rings!






Our last night and we ate at one of our favorite restaurants, Creekside. They always have live outdoor music and a big fire pit for the kids to roast marshmallows.


Our last day the girls wanted to go to the Castillo de San Marcos. I think they were expecting more of a princess castle instead of a fort!



We had to come home a day early so that Jacob and I could go to the dentist (why I made that appointment during spring break, I have no clue). The girls went to Mimi's and we enjoyed the rest of the afternoon without kids! The next day Mady and her bff went to Busch Gardens for the day. Jacob stayed home to paint the girls' new bedroom and my bff and I took the girls on a trip. KK stayed at Mimi's and we were off! While we were at Busch Gardens Mady also rode her first upside-down roller coaster. I was so proud of her and scared for her all at the same time! She is my little daredevil.

The girls love rides. Especially ones where they get to "drive".





This outdoor bounce house is huge. The girls could stay in it all day if we let them!

Can't leave Busch Gardens without riding Air Grover. And only the best seat will do! The front row!

The weekend of spring break ended with a fun birthday party at Michael's Arts and Crafts for Mady's friend Carly. We were sad spring break was coming to a close, but it means we are getting closer to summer!
