Florida!

We had been contemplating a trip to FL with the kids for a few months now. Not because we wanted to bring them to Disneyworld yet (as that would be hard as Teague is big enough for big rides and Lola is not - can you imagine the choatic-ness of trying to explain THAT to a 2 1/2 year old?!) - but because we wanted to take a mini vacation to visit the ocean and other fun things! So low and behold, apparently when it is an average temperature of 107 in FL in July you can get some fairly good priced airline tickets. So we booked a mini-vacation and packed the kids up and half of our house and headed to the beach. Oh, and Seaworld too. Ryan and I are total ocean lovers. Give us a pitcher, or 10, of margaritas, some good reads and set us by the ocean. We are good for days. It's a little different with two little bodies who don't realize that ocean water is not nearly has delicious as chlorine water. So after they realized they had to keep their mouths shut while they surfed the waves, they were happy. We did that for a couple of days and then headed to Orlando for two days, took in Seaworld and loved watching our children take in this new world like sponges. It's always great to live your life through your kids' eyes...
