18.67 year anniversary trip

I told Cary that he and I needed to get away for a few days. He started planning a trip to Colorado for just him and me, deeming it our 18.67 year anniversary trip. As we talked and planned and got excited about getting away we realized this was a trip our kids would really love so we surprised them and took them along. It was a much needed get away from school, work, and our busy life. We are so glad we decided to bring the kiddos along....Lots of memories were made and Colorado was simply beautiful!

just a few more vacation pics

We went to the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner one night. We were pleasantly surprised by how yummy the food tasted.

It rained a couple days while we were in Florida. The kids did not let it dampen our vacation. Josh and Kate went frog hunting right out in front of our condo.

And Braeden didn't let a down pour stop him from bike riding.  He was just doin' what the locals do. :)

By the end of the week we were exhausted but ready to buy a beach house and move to Seaside, Florida to become beach bums. :)

Vicksburg, Mississippi

On our way home from the beach we stopped in Vicksburg, Mississippi to see Vicksburg National Military Park.  I remember going through this park with my parents when I was a little girls. It was neat to take my own kids and show them a little bit of history.
