Florida Trip

Man, sometimes I am slow at posting these things. I can blame it on being busy or waiting until the camera is full so I can download all the pictures at once, but I know it is just me, finding the time, but the weather finally turned nice, I am only working 2 days a week, preparing for a baptism and party, garage sale, and my sister coming to town, and getting to spend all kinds of time with Trey. Can you blame me?

A couple of weeks ago we went to Florida for Fred's (one of my best friend from high school) wedding. Trey got to go too and it was his 3rd time on an airplane but his first time flying with daddy. We left Cleveland on a rainy day and headed to Orlando, where it was 80 and beautiful. Trey was good on the plane (in fact on the way there and back we got a lot of compliments on his behavior...that kid will do anything as long as there is food involved-I should be careful because maybe he will become an overeater!!) We met my mom and dad for lunch and they took Trey to their house, about 2 hours away on the gulf side, while we traveled on to Jacksonville Beach.

Brad and I enjoyed some time at the beach, went out to dinner at a fancy restaurant, ate oysters for lunch, drank at inappropriate hours, slept late, enjoyed adult conversation, and had a great time at the wedding! It was nice to have some time apart but of course I could not help wondering how Trey was doing and what he thought of the beach...luckily Grandmére emailed me some photos so I could get my fix...haha.





On Sunday we drove to my parents neck of the woods and met up with them at an oyster bar for dinner. We got to see their new place, and their even newer place! We did a little shopping, enjoyed eating fresh tuna steaks off the grill, and drinking margaritas. We went to the drum circle, the pool, and the beach, and out to dinner at an awesome italian restaurant.













Wednesday we took Trey to downtown Disney before our plane left. We were glad we decided he was too young for Disney World as he was scared to death of the animatronic gorillas inside the Rainforest Cafe. He liked his dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets though! He also got his first Mickey Mouse.







Overall, we crammed a lot of stuff in but it was still relaxing! We can't wait to go back.

  1. Erin,
    I'm so glad we were able to catch up at the wedding. Your site is bookmarked now for me, so I can now read about your family. Take care!
