Florida, Florida, Florida

 

Well since our family vacation for this year is over I have already started to plan our trip for next year. I am sure you can guess where it will be too... This trip not only will be a vacation but also Jake and I's time to scope out some areas of possibly moving to. I grew up in Bradenton, FL and loved it my mom owns a home in Hudson, Fl though she is currently in Ohio with me. I never dreamed that it would be 20 years before I would be able to step foot in Florida again and I must say it has been a long 20 years.

With planning our trip one thing I will be looking into are flights to Tampa. Though we will be staying south of Tampa it is easier to fly into there and drive down the rest of the way. It also gives me an excuse to visit my cousin in Tampa and take the kids to visit some really cool places also. Can you feel my excitement?? I am about ready to just jump in my car and head for the airport I am so ready to be on this trip.

Doesn't that picture look awesome?? Oh how I love Florida and all the fun and sun that goes along with it. This next year will be longest I am sure just because I am so excited about this trip and I hope that it will end up being a trip that can make my dreams come true.

Newly Renovated Hotel Breakers {Sandusky, Ohio}

 

Anyone who knows me knows that I am not a fan of living in Ohio, but there are some perks to living here. One being that we are close to Cedar Point, The Roller Coaster Capital of the World! My husband and oldest son absolutely love roller coasters and are always trying to get me on them. They were thrilled when they found out about Rougarou, a new floorless roller coaster. 

Weekend Getaway at Castaway Bay

 

When the temps are cold outside and you just can't get outside to play what do you do for fun with your family? Well if you are like me and DO NOT like the cold weather AT ALL you sit inside cooped up going crazy with kids that have a bunch of stored energy. Which makes you go crazy because there is only so much you can do to keep 4 kids busy inside a home. Luckily for us Ohio has some great indoor water-parks within a short driving distance from our home. So we surprised the kids with a surprise weekend getaway at Castaway Bay.
