Matt and I have been talking for a while now about taking a family vacation with just the 4 of us. We set a budget of what we wanted to spend and I have been researching ever since. The end of May we are going to Pensacola, FL with Matt's family. They have rented a condo for a week and we are all going. Matt, the kids, and I are going to make the 11 hour drive and meet Matt's parents and sisters there. A week at the beach....SIGN ME UP! The special thing about this vacation is that Pensacola is very near and dear to my heart. This was my families Spring Break hot spot. We went year after year after year. Some of my best family memories are there. My grandfather LOVED Pensacola beach, and he especially loved taking his grandchildren there. That was the last vacation my grandfather took us on before he died a few months later. Like I said....my best, most treasured memories are there. I am SO excited that we are going there, and I am SO excited for the kids to go to the beach. It's time to make new and special memories there.
Since we are going to the beach in May we decided that we wanted to do something totally different. I started looking into Disney trips. 2 and 1/2 years ago Matt won a trip thru wells fargo to Disneyland and we stayed at Disney's Grand Californian, and LOOOOVED it. It's one of those hotels that you literally walk out the back door and you are in the park. Huddy was just over a year old and we knew it was a place we wanted to return someday. So WE ARE! The last week of September the 4 of us are flying out to California and spending 5 days at Disneyland. They were having this promo of where you buy 3 days you get 2 free. You did not have to twist our arm! Matt and I cannot wait to take the kids. We are so excited almost to the point of losing sleep over it. HA!
Come on summer time!! We are READY for some summer fun!!!
Yeah Disneyland! I know the feeling - we have planned a trip in June and I am more excited than the kids.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited you guys are getting to do that with the kids. I can not wait until we are at the point where we can do that. What a fun time!
ReplyDeleteOkay seriously, lets set a date for a date in SA. Let me know when we can come. We are finally free!

Can't wait to do those things. We thought about the beach this summer, but I think my kiddos would eat sand...so we are waiting until next summer!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for summer either! :)
We are going to WDW in May! I almost got giddy when I realized you were going to be in FL in May... thought maybe we'd be at Disney at the same time!! So excited for your Disneyland trip!!
