Spring Break is over ...


Getting back in the routine today ...


AAHHHHH ... my first order of business is the grocery store ... which will be very soon ...

We are happy to be home, but vacation NEVER lasts long enough ... although I'm happy with my bed and my pillow ...


We had a great time ... I was bummed I couldn't upload pics while we were there ... oh well ... I'm going to do a synopsis of pics today ...


We ended up driving straight through Friday instead of breaking the trip up and stopping in Georgia and coming home Saturday ... really glad we did ... I was able to get more accomplished Saturday ...



anyhoo ...


It's Monday ... however ... I do feel a bit more refreshed than before I left ...



Happy for the opportunity to go ... but ready to get back in a routine ... it's the last 9 weeks of school!!!! I seriously can't believe it! Summer is just around the corner ...



LeAnna had some issues falling asleep last night ... I laid down with her and we talked for a bit ... we discussed "summer" and what we might do ... She really enjoyed the "adventure box" last year ... so I think I'm going to do something similar ... I've got some ideas churning ... =0)



Anyhoo ... here's some pics ...



We left Thursday evening and drove to Georgia ... we met Jim and Jan for breakfast at Cracker Barrel Friday morning ...





LeAnna and Nana at a rest stop "on the way" ...





LeAnna at Lone Star Restaurant ... our choice for dinner our first night in Orlando on Saturday ...


This was a life-size Chess Game out by the pool ... LOVED it!!! Want it!!!!


playing with the new camera ... this was taken at night with an ISO of 3200 ... lovely ...



Where we stayed ... The Fountains Resort ...

Fireworks "ending" to the show ...




Mickey's back yard ...




Minnie's Kitchen ... loved this ... had to get a picture ... ha! (the cookies are under glass - you can't get to them) ... as many times as I've been to Magic Kingdom, I have never noticed this ...





Minnie's back yard ...






PLUTO!!!!



Leaving the resort ...


... we spent the afternoon with Derek Arms on Thursday ... had a great lunch at Spice in Winter Park ... and spent time touring their church facility ... very nice ...





last night in Florida ... had dinner with family ... Nena, Aunt Betty, Tammy, Nana, LeAnna, Uncle Sam ...


It was a great vacation ... Spring Break 2009 ...

Great pictures! Thanks for sharing. Looks like you guys had a great time in Orlando. Brings back some memories from our trip this past October during our Fall Break. But I'm sure it wasn't restful. So much you want to do and so little time. Glad you had a good trip.
