parent getaway


Geoff and I needed a break so thankfully Ahbi made herself available to stay with the kids while we enjoyed a few days away.


Geoff was super excited when the mid-sized sedan we rented was out of stock and the rental car place offered us the choice of a lincoln continental or mustang. he chose the mustang of course.
We left after Garrett's soccer award ceremony and headed to Vero Beach to a fabulous luxury hotel for the night. i want a bedroom like this in the future for sure.

We were surprised that Vero Beach was nothing like Miami- reminded us of our honeymoon at Seaside, Oregon really. Rough surf, whole shells, windy and chilly weather, and cute little streets with no cars and tiny shops.



We then headed to Orlando where we enjoyed Universal Studio's Citywalk. We got a good laugh at the kareokee club and really enjoyed the Blue Man Group show form the front row.


Also in Orlando Geoff raced 50 mph gokarts, practiced golfing at the driving range, and i indulged in a massage at Gaylord Palms resort.
We really enjoyed the break, came home to happy kids (youll see why in our next post), but do wished we coudl have eaten more- i jsut cant seem to fit a baby and 3 delicious meals in this belly in a day. oh well :)
