~~~ Beautiful week ~~~

What beautiful weather we have been having in the Sunshine State…




We spent a one day over at Orlando’s Universal. We had a fun filled day there and enjoyed many rides in the park. They are celebrating Mardi gras for the next month or so and had an incredible nighttime parade. It was a spectacular parade and the boys came away with ton of beads…








Sit back and enjoy a video that I found of the parade we saw

there were HUGE floats, Stilt walkers and tons of beads





After we left the park we went to Jimmy Buffet’s Margaritaville Cafe for dinner. We sat outside on the Porch of Indecision and WOW what fun we had. The disc jockey there was amazing and he really entertained us & the kids. I had the best fried chicken & nut salad (sugared pecans) YUM. A fun place to go!!!





I went up to my daughters this week to watch my twin grandsons. I picked them up from daycare and watch them until she got home… she is a nurse and works 12 hour shifts when she goes in. We had a great time together… first I stopped at McDonalds and got them a Happy Meals & then they played in the play area for about an hour. After we left there we went out to Dunedin Causeway and I watched the sunset with my two darling boys. They ran, chased birds, picked up sticks & shells and enjoyed watching the sun sink into the Gulf of Mexico. That really tired them out so when we got home they took a shower and then came out to watch American Idol with me.












So as you can see it was a great week! I hope you had a fun week too!




Have Fun, Travel Safe & Stay Healthy!!!

We went to Universal Studios a few weeks back and stopped at Margaritaville, almost had a few margaritas but just watched the beautiful birds they had instead.

We are heading for Disney World tomorrow, will be there for a week visiting all of the parks.

I'm sure the grandsons kept you busy during the week. They no doubt enjoyed themselves as well.

Pppfftttt on your gorgeous weather! lol I'm jealous, there I said it! We have so much snow and expecting another snowstorm to come around tonight. Sigh! I need to move! lol

I loved watching that video, what a fantastic parade Universal Studios puts on for Mardi Gras. Makes me wish I could be there and get some beads:-)

Sounds like you had a fun time with your twin grandsons, they're so adorable. Any time spent with grandkids is so special, isn't it?! I'm hoping to see Lily at the end of this month when we go to my brother Guy's place for the Maple Sugar Bush season. Shawn lives only half an hour away from there so hoping they make it there this year.

Hope your week is a lovely one so far:-) xoxo

Nice photos. Sure liked the sound of that fried chicken and pecan salad.

Dee said she was trying to get something set up with you (lunch?) before they head north. You're 80 miles from us - not a bad drive.
