It’s just that time of year when you want everything to stop around you. Billy had been working so much and I had spring fever…badly – it was time for a vacation. We took the week after Easter off to enjoy each other and get some much needed sunshine! We were not quite sure of our plans for the week but knew it would end with the Bird family reunion in Orlando, FL. On Tuesday of our break we decided it was time to leave the house and hit the road so we went shopping for all the necessary road trip items (chocolate, a cooler full of bottle water, homemade cookies, peanuts…you get the idea, lots of junk!). Wednesday AM we packed the car and headed south. We decided to stop in Daytona to enjoy the day on the beach, it was gorgeous out!! We debated staying the evening in Daytona but opted to go ahead and head to Orlando. We didn’t plan on going to any parks while we were there but it ended up that we did & now have season passes to the Universal parks for the year. It was fun to ride roller coasters, get some sunshine, laugh & dine together with no worries on picking up the house or cleaning the kitchen! I sure did rest up and we certainly enjoyed being ‘away’ for a little bit, just the two of us…I even gave up status updates and twitter for an entire 10 days so I could detox from technology. Ha! Here’s just a few pix from our break.
Easter - a quick shot before we went to church
The Easter Bunny (aka my wonderful hubby) surprised me with a basket full of goodies!!!
Brooke loves Billy too! :-)
Daytona Beach - it was the perfect beach day!
Hottness! Billy, not the snake. ;)
After dinner in Downtown Disney
(I was debating on this hat for the beach this year but decided against it.)I'm already looking forward to planning our next getaway - maybe another cruise...? Hope you all are enjoying the Spring and taking time to rest up with loved ones as well.
