Our not so far away vacation


We drove about 30 miles to a resort in Orlando and decided to stay there for the weekend rather than leaving the state. The kids made a cake for the fourth of July and we celebrated in our hotel room while we ate the cake :]





For dinner, we went to a steakhouse and Gardner got to try ice cream for the first time. He seemed to like it!





After dinner, we went back to the hotel and the kids relaxed. Even with all the cool stuff at the resort, Gardner was more interested in a plate.





We spent the last day at the pool and laying in the sun. The kids seemed to really enjoy it. The second we put Gardner's swimming suit on, he was ready to go!
