We returned from our spring vacation to Florida two weeks ago and I'm just now getting around to blogging about it! Traveling with a 7-month-old was difficult and it took nearly 4 days to get back into our groove once we returned to Atlanta, but the disruption in our routine was entirely worth it, as we thoroughly enjoyed our family getaway!
Our first stop was at The Grand Mimi's house in Orlando. She was delighted to see her first and as of now only grandchild (if you don't count canines of course!):

 |
| Aunt LouLou stopped by after work to pay her niece a visit. They had an enthralling conversation! |
After two days in Orlando we ventured to west Florida (Largo to be exact) to visit Rob's Mom (aka Oma) and Papa Steve at their winter home in the Down Yonder mobile home park. It was so nice to see them, and to finally see their Florida digs! We had a lovely visit:

After a couple of days in Largo, we returned to Orlando and met up with Rick, Christina, Blake and Evan at a time share near Disney World. Many thanks to Oma for giving up her timeshare week to us so we could stay together in comfort!

Blakey Bear loves his cousin Olivia!
Every morning he was so excited to hug and kiss Olivia!
It was adorable :) | |

George and Inge were also in Orlando while we were, so they stopped by the timeshare and paid us a visit:

 |
| Although we didn't join Rick, Christina, Blake and Evan at Disney World, Olivia was delighted to wear Evan's Mickey Mouse Ears when they returned! |

During our stay at the time share, we took Olivia swimming for the first time. She did great!

At the end of our week at the time share, we ventured to Aunt LouLou and Uncle Jamie's house in Winter Springs for an impromptu BBQ and pool party. Thanks for throwing the shindig together at the last minute Lesley and Jamie!

Before hitting the road to return to Atlanta, we stopped back at The Grand Mimi's to pick up Buster and Pedro and have one last visit.
