  • Florida+sun+sleeping in+vacation+lots of Love=Happiness

      O where do I start?? Two weeks ago we headed for Fl  for a family vacation before Gwenyth starts school and plus we were all ready to go on a vacation by ourselves and just enjoy each other and not have anything planned and we were not disappointed!!! It honestly was the best vacation we have ever taken as a family. There was lots of sleeping in, bike rides, which we all enjoyed esp. the twins, they would cry about everytime we took them out of their carriers and the beach was fantastic, the kiddie pool was awesome for the girls and all the good  food we enjoyed that I didn't have to cook.... and spending time with Marks grandparents, and Mummy spoiled the girls by giving them candy and letting them come over to her house to play with paper and pens and she gave them each a little something to bring home. She is a dear old lady and we love them dearly. The worse thing was the drive, both times we drove all night, mainly because it was cheaper and the girls slept most of the way.

    The girls all loved the water, Miranda at first did not like it but Mark was determined she wasn't going to cry the whole time and so he took her out with him and stayed there until she stopped crying and after that she was fine:)

    Our last night there we attempted to take family pictures which my dear friends was kinda a joke!!! On most of the pics the girls aren't looking or they didn't want to cooperate, don't ask me how photographers do it!! There were a few I was able to salvage and with alot of editing I think I will call them passable. Then to top the evening off we rode our bikes over to Big Olaf creamery and enjoyed their delicious ice cream.

    This is what happens when you tell your husband to pose nicely for a pic

  • Gina, the family picture is nice and I love the one of all 4 girls!!   Sounds like a fun vacation!   I hope that next summer, we can take a little vacation... with JUST the 5 of us.   Seems like we always go with family(which is fine), but there is nothing quite like being with just yourself and not scheduling and planning things with others.   Hope you enjoy the rest of your Summer!!!

  • OH!!! I want to go on a vacation now........it looks like SO much fun! So glad you could have a relaxing time away from home, and work schedules....I love the family picture, and the twins---so cute........all the pictures were beautiful!

  • Isn't the beach just so much fun with kids?  I'm jealous that you got to be there for two weeks!  I thought I was lucky with three days. :)  But I so do not envy you that long drive.  Iyiyiy.  Do Mark's grandparents have a guest house?  I was trying to figure out if you stayed with them.

  • Looks like fun Gina!
