Vacation in one word was "Awesome". Just Friday I was basting in the sun with 88 degree weather only to look out my window yesterday to see snowflakes in the air.....go figure! Well needless to say the 80 degree weather everyday was nice while it lasted.
We got home Saturday night around 11:30 all of us with tan but exhausted bodies! I must say that this was probably the most relaxing vacation I have been on since Mike and I went to Cancun about 5 years ago. We usually go to Orlando every spring break which is very nice but it is not usually a "relaxing" vacation as we go from theme park to theme park. Don't get me wrong, it is nice and makes great memories but just having the chance for one spring break to sit back and watch the kids explore the ocean and other attributes of Daytona was pure therapy for the soul. Each morning we would sleep in to get much needed rest and hit the beach for the day around 10:30 a.m. From there we would stay out enjoying the sunshine until about 4:00 p.m when we would go back inside to shower and get ready to go out for dinner. I know the one night we went to "Bubba Gumps" we had a reservation for 21 people! It was so much fun having the other couples and families to spend time with and to make memories. Despite a few in the group having some minor health issues during the week I would say all in all the vacation was a huge success.
I'm so glad that our friend Jamie and her girls got the chance to enjoy the week and to just smile at all the beautiful creation God has placed around them. It was so nice to be able to spend the week with the so many dear friends that God has been gracious enough to place in my life and in the lives of my husband and children. For that, I'm so very thankful.
The above picture is of Mike, the kids and I as well as my niece Jana and her finace John. This was taken one evening before we went to dinner. I hope everyone is having a great week so far!
Until next time.......Maria
