Florida FUN!

So... a little over a month and a half ago I went to Florida with my sister, her husband Zach, and my niece Addie. Because of everything going on with Sam at the time (his first MRI, the one of his lower back was scheduled the week I was going to be gone), I wasn't going to go. BUT Sam insisted I should, b/c the reason for the trip was to go visit my dad, and my dad was going to be having a big back surgery a week and half after my visit. Also, it had been a few years since I had been to my dad's house to see him! My sister and her husband were driving, and being in my third trimester my doctor didn't want me to fly. So I tagged along with them on the trip, and really it honestly did take a LOT out of me, driving that far, 30 weeks pregnant! And on the way home, their SUV broke down and we were all SO TIRED. So I think we all agreed, when visiting dad it is best to fly! =)
Also, while I was in Florida, Sam's dad came up here to Louisville to stay with him, and go to his MRI appointment, etc. They must have had a good time, because Sam's dad told me he thought he gained about 15 pounds during his visit =).
In the picture above, I was playing cheer coach with Steph and Zach =).
First thing Steph, Zach, and Addie did when we got to my dad's house was to jump in his pool! =) Addie loved the water.

My aunt and uncle had visited dad the week before, so they sent a fruit bouquet. Yah, we helped dad and Janie take care of it =).

So one of the days we were in Florida, we went to Orlando to visit my mom and Jack (they went to Disney World for Spring Break). Steph, Zach, and I got in free using Disney park hopper tickets from our family vacation in 1996!!! Anyways, we waited in line for Pooh Bear, and Addie was terrified, so we didn't wait to meet any of the other characters.
