Another spring break has come and gone all too quickly.
I love this place. I never want to leave. And call me crazy but preparing for it is part of the fun for me.
Next year, two weeks for sure!
I know I can handle the direct flight with three kids because, thanks to Air Tran and their wonderful seat placement, I basically did it by myself this year. We were on a plan that was two seats on one side and three on the other. They put me with all three of my children (G is a lap child) in one row and my hubby in the row behind by the window. Which, would not have been so bad but he couldn't even take G. because the couple he was sitting with had a lap child. (Only one lap-er in a row due to oxygen masks) Anyway, from this little experience I know I can do it alone and am excited about the possibility of spending more time in Florida.
This year was a little abnormal because of the weather. It was unusually cold so we were not able to spend as much time as we would have liked on the beach and in the pool. The kids didn't seem to mind a whole lot however and still had a great time.
Our kids were so great and had a blast hanging out with Noah, Hannah, Ava, Grace & Harper. It is fun to see them all interact together.
We felt, because we were staying for longer than just seven days, we could do some things we normally don't do because of time (hopefully next year we can do even more!:) One of the things we have talked about for years, since Noah was really little, has been to go on the 'Pirate Ship'. We finally did it this year. Bryan, Myself, Payton, Charley, Mark, Dad, Ava, and Hannah all went while the others stayed back with the littlest ones. It was fun and the kids liked it.
