It is always a task getting the kids packed.
Their backpacks are a little more fun because I get to put fun surprises in them!
Our flight was uneventful which is always good. The kids love the tram at the airport.
Our condo had beautiful floor to ceiling windows overlooking the beach and the pool.
After we got settled in, Mikey and I went to get some groceries since everything is within walking distance. We stopped for a quick drink after traveling with the kids.
We took the kids down the lobby and out by the pool to look around after dinner.
The next morning was a little chilly, so we decided to take the kids out to explore.
We found a cute little place out of the wind to eat lunch.
After lunch we walked around and did some more shopping.
Then we hit the beach. It was warm as long as we had the umbrella to block the wind.
A fun thing about vacation is that we get to sleep together!
A fun day on the beach!
One night the boys went to go check out the pier at sunset. After sunset, they ended up getting ice cream and watching an outdoor movie!
Another fun day on the beach!
Even on the beach this girl is ALWAYS upside down.
Some sand art. Notice the sea shells in the back of the trucks. Very creative.
And they have some great hole digging skills.
Sunday was our warmest day! It was warm enough to get in the water and both the beach and pool were packed!
I took this picture of Presley out in the ocean. She truly loves everything about the beach and ocean. She spent 45 minutes out there just floating. I had to make her come in.
That night we all went out to see the street shows before sunset.
Bentley got asked to be part of one of the shows. They all lined up and a guy jumped and flipped over them.
The next morning was pretty cool so we went for a walk.
The kids enjoyed some oranges.
We took the kids to get Shirley Temples after lunch and did some more shopping.
That evening after dinner we went to the game room to play some foose ball and air hockey.
The next morning, Daddie and Grampy took Presley and Bentley to the aquarium. This is the aquarium where Winter (the dolphin from Dolphin Tale with the prosthetic tale) lives.
Then we hit the beach.
Mikey and I went down to the beach for our last sunset.
After dinner, we took the kids over to the hotel side to print our boarding passes. We decided to go exploring and we came upon this stage in one of the ballrooms. Like father like kids...always performing...
After we put the kids to bed, we snuck out for a little date night.
We spent the last day by the pool.
One last look at the beach.
Then we came up and took showers to get ready to go home. The girls got a hold of my phone and took some selfies.
As always, we had some beautiful sunsets...
When we got to the airport, Kiley was really acting out. Someone even noticed when we were in the security line, so they took us to the front of the line. We couldn't figure out what was wrong with her. She didn't want anything to eat. We finally got on the plane and the second we took off, she was asleep and slept the whole flight home. She was just tired. So the flight home was good too. We had so much fun in Clearwater with Grammy and Grampy and we can't wait to go back next year!!
