Happy 13th Birthday

We have another teenager in the house! Happy 13th Birthday J!!

It still seems like yesterday that my sweet 10 pound baby was born, today he is officially a teenager!

Resort Fun

While in Orlando we took some time out to hang out at the resort. It was great not scheduling anything! We walked around the pond. The boys went swimming. We went to the little ice cream shop. The big boys went out on a paddleboat. The twins and I played outside. We enjoyed the beautiful 80 degree Florida sunshine! It was such a great way to start of the New Year!

Universal/Islands of Adventure

Today it was all about the big boys! We wanted to end our trip to Florida with something special for them. A trip to Universal/Islands of Adventure was perfect! We let them plan the day, we let them pick which rides, we let them stand in the lines while we entertained the twins :) Thankfully this park is full of play areas for the little ones to keep them busy!

Last time we were here L was not tall enough for many of the rides, this time he wanted to get on every ride that his brothers would be on.

First stop was the new Harry Potter area.

The twins waiting....

Next the boys went to MIB3 and the Simpsons.

The twins waiting but this time A found a ride just like Dumbo-she rode it three times.

M waiting....

The Transformer line had a 45 minute wait.

The twins waiting and playing on the playground that was completely empty! YAY!!

After getting something to eat the boys decided they wanted to do the big HULK ride. I can't believe all 3 rode this one.

M fell asleep right under the ride, nothing was going to wake this boy.

A and I headed over to Dr Seuss land.

 It was 84 and hot (love Florida winters) so the boys wanted to cool off on one of the water rides.

Another play area for the twins while we waited.

 Last stop for the day was the old Harry Potter.

While waiting we took the twins to the air conditioned Dinosaur exhibit and had ice cream :)

It was  such a great family day!! We left the park around 4:00 and started our drive back to NC.  Goodbye Florida, see you later this year :)
