Spring Break & Easter

We spent the second weekend of Spring Break at the Gaylord Palms. Ya'll know it's our home away from home. I've been making a little extra money selling jewelry, so I treated my favorite guys to a weekend getaway! The weather had been cool all week, but warmed up just in time for us to splash in the pool. We did a little shopping and even had  Easter breakfast at Villa de Flora. Ben was thrilled that the Easter Bunny found him and delivered a basket of goodies at the hotel. Nana got Ben a Thomas and Friends dvd a few months ago, so he has been on a Thomas kick. The Easter Bunny brought him the wooden engine James, the Chug Wash from Chuggington, some books, train stickers and a chocolate bunny. On the way home, we met Grandma & Grandpa at Bok Tower for an Easter picnic. Grandpa is taking another photo workshop, so he snapped some pics while we were there. 

We've had such a great week off! I am so thankful to have a job that allows me this much time off with my family!

Ben picked this flower for me while we were loading up the car.

Swimming with his train, Paxton!

More swimming on Saturday!

Poolside with a People magazine! I haven't done that in years! I stopped and picked up a few magazines on the way to the pool. The clerk said something about me reading my "weekly gossip" and I almost told him about all of the books I just read on world history, economic theories, wars, revolutions and geography. I was overdue for a little "light" reading. Don't judge, dude!

poolside picnic!

Ben was so tired after swimming all day. I snapped this sweet picture of him watching Fireman Sam in the hotel room before we left for dinner Saturday night. 

We got back from dinner in time to watch the men from Gator World feed the alligators in the atrium. It was really cool!

Ben was so excited about his chocolate bunny! I love his face in this picture!

I may have stolen these from his Easter basket...........

We had a fun egg hunt at Bok Tower!

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter!
