Florida, how I love thee

Yes....the fresh air as you step out of the airport. Palm trees, beautiful water, and my parents. This was the perfect way to spend spring break. We spent a few days at different beaches. This is the first year Brylie truly loved it. She was playing in the water and the sand. She didn't want to leave.
Reagan loved the beach too. She sat in the water and kicked her feet around. She loved the feel of the gritty sand in her fingers.
We visited the Clearwater aquarium which is home to Winter the dolphin. Winter stars in the movie Dolphin Tale. Brylie loved seeing the dolphins, turtles, and other sea creatures. Reagan loved drooling all over and chewing on everything.

Brylie and Keilyn played lots. They walked around the beach and scooped sand. Reagan thought the sand would be tasty. It was definitely a task to keep her hands out of her mouth. Reagan was a sweetheart the whole trip. She loved sitting with Grandma. She loved getting kisses from B.B. She slept great and was full of smiles.


Opa! We went to Tarpon Springs. It is town full of greek food and shops. We enjoyed the boats and greek pastries...YUM!

Brylie found the cutest souvenir at Tarpon Springs. She was dying for a turtle, and we stumbled across a turtle with babies inside. You can store the babies in the belly or keep them out. She had a fun time with Grandpa being silly. They were coming up fun names for the turtles.
Sadly, we had to say goodbye to Florida. Both girls did great on the plane. You never know how children will react on a plane. Brylie had my "pat" (IPad), and Reagan slept and cuddled. We flew back on my birthday. At the ripe old age of 31, I feel pretty lucky. I get to go to Florida to see my family. They pamper us and love on the kids. I have an amazing husband who takes care of our family and works hard to allow trips like this. I have my two beautiful girls who have a great big sister who helps out ALOT. It was a great trip and a great birthday week!
