Florida Fun - Part 1

We just returned from a wonderful spring break trip to Florida.  With the winter we have been having, it felt so good to get out of the cold and snow for eight days!  We spent the majority of the week relaxing and just enjoying the warmth, but I was able to get a few pictures along the way.  :)

We got up really early on the morning of March 17th for our flight to Chicago.  Our flight was a little delayed, but fortunately we had a long layover in Chicago, so it didn't make us miss our connecting flight to Florida.  The kids were great travelers.  Miley was happy with her movies and games, and Landon even slept for a while on the flight from Chicago to Florida, so that was awesome!

We got in to Fort Lauderdale in the evening, so really only had time to grab some dinner, and get settled in before we made the kids go to bed to get some rest from our long day of traveling.  

The next morning was kind of rainy and overcast (really the only not great weather we had the whole trip!), so we spent the morning doing some shopping and getting food, etc.  After Landon had a nap, we managed to make it to the beach.  The kids were so happy, and were much less afraid of the water this year!

Throughout the week, most evenings and mornings we would take a walk around the neighborhood.  Landon loved it because there was a little spot where we could watch the boats go by on the intercoastal.  He could stand there and watch the boats forever if we let him!  Miley enjoyed checking out all the beautiful flowers...definitely a nice change of scenery from our ice, snow, and brown yuckiness that is our scenery in Minnesota right now!

More to come!
