Missing Sunny Florida!

Well, it was sure nice to soak up some rays last week!  Hopefully we got us enough vitamin d to last us until spring  :)   We had such a nice trip and it was awesome to relax and enjoy some time outdoors.  I have several pictures that I want to share, so this post is just an overview.

Our flights went great, Josh and the kids did wonderfully.  Dave was super entertained by some new transformers kre-o toys that he and Josh put together.  Ike was a little squirmy, but was overall pretty good.






Ike hanging out on the plane.




















The boys crashed as soon as we got into our rental car (well van actually, living large!)





Unfortunately this good sleeping didn't last very long for Ike.  I am not sure if it was a reaction to the flying or a weird bug, but he developed a fever the first night we were there and then proceeded not to sleep for two nights.  Ugh.  But, he powered through and did much better after that.  Both boys got up pretty early every day...guess they wanted us to enjoy every single minute of vacation  :)






The kids and I at the grove...gotta get my fix of lime-chocolate ice cream.













Dave practicing for the big golf outing by hitting pinecones in the backyard.











Josh, Dave, and grandpa Dave all went golfing one afternoon and had a great time.  Worked out perfect for me since Ike went down for a nap and I got to sit in the sun!









Ike picked up Dave's favorite activity of washing the golf clubs.
















Ike also enjoyed playing in the van.  He could tell it was much nicer than what we've got at home!















Dancing with grandpa Dave.






Dave had a blast playing in the pool.  He has officially overcome his fear of jumping in/being thrown in the pool.  













Group picture before we left.














The boys watching our luggage being loaded on the plane...time to go home!












I have a couple more posts to catch up on from vacation...will get to them eventually!  A big thank you to grandma Mary and grandpa Dave for being excellent hosts and putting up with our craziness!!  We miss your delicious breakfast sandwiches and dinners almost as much as we miss Florida...
