Athena and Issiah have never been on a traditional family vacation. I know, really? But it's true and they are about to get a lot of 'First times'.
We are off to Florida, then a cruise to the Bahamas, couple nights there, then back to Florida. 19 days all together.
Made the kids airplane pillows
Issiah's first time on an airplane. He gets the window seat.
Athena is with Chris and I, and of course gets the window.
Doesn't take long before they check out.
Nothing like a great book on vacation.
We are here in Florida. Issiah's and Athena's first time at the beach, first time in the ocean.
Here's the story. We haven't had anything to eat. So I know it's there first time but I just asked them not to get their clothes wet. And what does Ryleigh do... Runs and jumps into the ocean. Thanks for listening.
There he go... little fucker. Now he is going to be wet at lunch. As you can see Layden isn't doing well at listing either.
Just a cool kid.
Breakfast on the pier
Time to play in the ocean.
Snorkeling.
Kelly's Landing. The best Boston Seafood.
Watching the US Open. We love Tennis
More food and more time on the Beach, having the time of our lives but of course watching this hurricane cheep up on our vacation.
So happy to be out of the ghetto
I now what you are thinking... why so many pictures.
Because I can.
These pictures are awesome. Athena is building a sand castle and doesn't understanding the tide.
Bye bye sandcastle
Layden is in heaven.
Lizards, birds, any animal and you will find Athena and Layden.
Night walk and making foot prints that wash away.
Walking on the pier.
Alien? or Driver?
Alien for sure.
Ice cream
Buying Club Wyndham.
Fun in the salt water swimming pool
Twins.
Snorkeling trip.
Million Dollar row
All dressed up for Dinner
Morton's Steak House.
Here's the story. After buying the time share with Club Wyndham they gave us a $100 gift card to Morton's Steak house, but maybe should have told us it's about $100 per person. Fuck that. We all got up and let Chris to make the excuse. His excise: the babysitter of the twins needed us to come home.
Bubba Gump Shrimp at the Beach.
Morning before we leave on the cruise and we are not the most excited as we are very worried about the storm coming in.
But before we leave we will watch the lizard eat because it's fucken cool.
Off on a cruise to Freeport.
After exploring the ship of course the big boys stop to play table tennis.
All ready to get into trouble.
Still Playing
Athena, Layden, and I are set up for a padi and madi.
While getting our padi/ madi the boat took off.
Still Playing.
We are here in Freeport and the Hurricane is picking up speed and getting larger everyday.
Coconuts.
Tennis anyone? It's on 98 degrees
Getting ready to spend the next 7, oh I mean 3 day because of the hurricane on the island.
Of course.
Athena dancing with the girls.
It's hard to enjoy ourselves in such a beautiful place with a hurricane on the way and not know if we will have a save place for shelter.
We are leaving the island but we have no idea where we are going. Our flights are cancelled, resorts closed down.
The resort has given us an option to stay on the boat. But unfortunately by the time I found Chris it was booked up. We have to leave the ship in Ft. Lauderdale with no where to go.
Customs. We are over it.
Great new. Club Wyndham has gotten us a room. Yay.
We need food and water
Everyone is ready to go home, but we have to wait out the storm.
This place is great. Lots to do, feels safe, animals.
We are getting in a walk before we get stuck inside.
It's starting.
First night, we are all together in our room
Tornado Closet.
We still have power and water.
The storm has passed but still no flights.
Walk. We need one after being locked up.
Poor animals are terrified.
Kids are blogging about their trip
Kelly's Landing. We need a good meal before going home.
We are on our way home.
