Our Florida Trip

Just wanted to share a couple of pictures of our recent trip to Florida. We went to Cape Canaveral, FL and stayed at the Ron Jon Resort with the Timmer Family(my mom's whole side of the family). We had such a great time and enjoyed our last vacation before the baby is born!!

Some of the highlight of our vacation were:

*Kennidee flew on an airplane for the first time and did great. She talked the whole first flight(which lasted an hour) and she fell asleep for an hour on the next plane which was suppossed to take 2hrs, but we were stuck on the run way for 2hrs prior to take-off(apparantely they were having computer problems).

*Relaxing by the pool, watching Kennidee play in the water...which she loved, enjoying the lazy river, going down the big water slide(Jason, Dad & Eric), catching up on some gossip magazines, and just enjoying the sun and warm weather.

*We enjoyed an animal show at our hotel, which all the kids loved. We were able to hold and touch an alligator, snake, and tarantula. They also showed us a ton of different animals. Kennidee wasn't scared of the alligator, but she wasn't so sure of the snake. We had to leave the show early b/c Kennidee was talking so loudly and getting so excited that she was a little distracting to everyone. At one point the lady brought out an albino snake and Kennidee yelled out "albino" at the top of her lungs(it was hilarious).

*Thursday we took an all day trip to Sea World with Grandma & Grandpa and Eric & Kelly and the kids. Let's just say that it was so humid that day I have never sweat that much in my life. We were so excited that it started raining and Kennidee enjoyed splashing in the puddles. The rain only lasted 10min and then we were off to enjoy more of Sea World. We went to the Shamu show(Kennidee slept throught the whole thing while Jason and I enjoyed the show) and then headed over to see the penguins. Well, around 2:00 it stared pouring rain again and it never let up....we were able to see alot of the exhibits that were inside and then left for home....tired, hot, wet and ready for bed.

*We also enjoyed taking Kennidee to the ocean for the first time, mini-golfing, yummy food, late night talks, watching Kennidee interact with her cousins...which she loved and is still talking about Cayden, Addyson & Kamryn.

*All-in-all we had a great time despite some sicknesses...Kelly and Cayden threw-up on the way to the airport and Cayden threw-up a couple of times on the plane(luckily they both were feeling better after a day or two). Kelly had to go to the med center late Friday night b/c she had a painful sore throat which was so red and swollen that she couldn't breathe very well...she ended up having two shots and was diagnosed with strep throat and put on some heavy medication!!!

*Hope you enjoy all the pictures....
