Wrapping up our Chicago portion of the trip and now for an Indiana/Ohio/Michigan adventure! Chicago was great, weather was perfect and I’m sad to leave…as always.
2013 Road Trip Adventure – Chicago Pictures
Here are some pictures- I don’t have lots of words because I’m exhausted 🙂 You can see the previous trip post here.
2013 Road Trip Adventure – Part 1
Epic road trip 2013 is under way – so much to talk about but no time to write about it! Some notes and pictures from the road so far. Hit a big storm on turnpike as we were leaving Florida. Thanks Florida. It would be nice to visit Gainesville sometimes. But I want to go…
Marco Island Vacation
Ah…vacation. You never last as long as I would like. It’s our annual vacation spot. One week in a rental house on the beach. It’s perfect. I just wish it would last longer. Days are filled with bike rides, fishing, eating, drinking and pooling. That’s about it. There’s a great spot the boys love to…
Boating adventures in Marco Island
Marco Island is one of our favorite vacation spots. I used to come here as a kid, as my aunt and her (much older children) also lived on the island. As an adult, it just randomly happened that my in-laws friends have a house to rent on the island, and it turned into our family…
Memorial Day Weekend
Our Memorial Weekend was such a crazy whirlwind, I think I’m still trying to catch my breath. This is a long post, lots of pictures. But there’s so much to share! My husband and I were celebrating our 13th wedding anniversary over the weekend. We typically don’t go gifts, but plan a night out to…
Disney’s Vero Beach Resort – In Pictures
We are big fans of the Disney Vero Beach Resort. Vero is about two hours away from Orlando. Disney also has resorts in Hilton Head (which is awesome!) and one in Hawaii (which we have not been to…YET!) Vero is great because you don’t even need to leave the resort for anything. (Other than the…
Pelican Island National Wildlife Refuge
Did you even realize that the first wildlife refuge in the entire county was here in Florida? Not only that – it’s just a short two hour drive from Orlando?? I stumbled upon the Pelican Island National Wildlife Refuge while on a great bike ride down the Jungle Trail. I had no idea it was…
Universal Islands of Adventure – Family Fun Night!
The company I work for is very generous. Once a year, they organize a Family Fun Night, where they buy out a theme park just for park employees. This year, it was Universal Islands of Adventure. We love the park, and my kids are finally both at the age where they can ride almost everything.…
The monuments of Washington, DC
I did more than just stalk celebrities on a recent trip to Washington, D.C. There will be more to come, but I’m so exhausted. However, I did want to share with you some of the beauty of the weekend. First, a night trip to visit Thomas Jefferson. It was about midnight and we were the…
