Well, this spring break was great! We were headed up to Orlando to stay at the timeshare at Westgate Lakes...We were to leave on Saturday and return on Saturday..one full week of getting away!
Let me start out by saying Happy Birthday to Aubrey!!! Us girls and the kids headed up to Orlando on Saturday (a little earlier in the morning than planned due to a phone call from Bianca, our niece who was in labor and due to deliver in Orlando!) So we headed up knowing we were going straight to the hospital to meet up with Buddy and Bianca. Can you say "what great timing???" I will get to the good part....Aubrey was born on Sunday March 30! at 08:29am after ummm....around 3 pushes....yeah, you heard that one right! Bianca was a trooper and "ACHOO" ...out came Aubrey!!!....of course Rayne and i have to get on to Bianca about how EASY her labor went due to the fact that poor Rayne and i had emergency C-Sections for our children!!!! No, Bianca will NEVER live this one down!! We will always remind her! :) But none the less....we were so happy to be a part of her birth!!!
So then, with our minds at ease and the Cannon family heading home from the hospital on Monday, we start our week. We had a great time doing goony-golf, sitting at the pool, and having a kayak race: Rayne and I vs. Brian and Eric vs. Josh and Korey...we won't say who won.....
We went to Islands of Adventure on one half of the day ( we sped through the Hulk, Dueling Dragons, and some others) and then went to Universal for the other half of our park ticket and went on E.T., Twister, and i don't recall any other rides due to the following reason: At the park there is a thing called Universal Meal Deal...well, here is how it goes...you pay $20 for all the food you can eat at like 5 restaurants in the park, you pay an extra $5 for a big refillable drinking cup. Well, Eric jumped all over this one! Who in the world came up with this idea??? So we ate our lunch (hamburgers)off of Eric's bracelet. So we pass the next restaurant and then there goes Eric heading to the line to get more food(pizza)...need i say more??? So we get to Universal and he had to pay a $4 "upgrade" to do the same thing....yeah, here we go again...or, there goes Eric again...he comes out with more pizza , jello and chicken strips!! OF COURSE we are riding rides IN BETWEEN the EATING!!!! Our final stop is this smoked chicken with corn on the cob which was excellent, i guess because we all got our fill of pizza & jello ! Anyway, i think all 8 of us did pretty well for $30 as you can see by the pictures...lol....
the rest of the week went smoothly, the guys came back to LP on Thursday night to go to work on Friday and we stayed until Saturday morning. We battled the boys in another round of golf and then we went on a paddle boat...Josh "accidentally" fell into the water which felt like around 70*!!! and somehow Rayne and I ended up in too!
So so long to Orlando, it was very eventful , another trip we won't forget...now back to our regular grind!!!
