Seed Florida Vacation 2013

I know it's like almost a month later....but things have been happening around here. We've been living life. We've been painting and renovating, cleaning and getting this house in the shape we want it to be in after almost living here for a year.
So....here they are. These are the phone pictures that I took....I still haven't put the real camera pics on the computer yet, so that post will be another day.

Traffic driving through Tennessee.

Some Selfies for the toddler's sanity.

Out of the carseat! FINALLY!!!!

WHAT?! You're going to let me eat dinner in BED?!?!

Made it to the Sunshine State!

We promised her a beach, and a beach we delivered...only took us 2 days :-)

She loved Florida!

First day in the sun felt SOOOO good!

Hey hey!! Got me some tan lines!

 Pictures I was sending to the girls at work!

Florida sun was treating her real good!

I was looking and feeling really good about myself that day!

Drinking coffee on the beach, wish I could do that EVERY day of my life!

Best drink EVER!

And again....

No tub in the rental house means we bathed in the sink!

Home, back in cold MI....grrrrrr!!!!!!

Florida 2013

It's pretty much official. We have the dates, we just need to book the condo! March 28th - April 5th! So Super excited!!! We're starting our 2 day drive on March 28th. We will arrive on March 30th. We will have March 30th - April 4th to relax and enjoy the wonderful Florida sun and warmth, and then we start the 2 day drive back to Michigan on April 5th. I'm so exited you don't even know!

This is what I looked like the last time we went to Florida. This was March 2009....see that tan skin and that tight stomach! Oh lord....this time will be just a LITTLE bit different, but still so much fun, and this time we will have our girl with us, and I just KNOW she's going to have a blast! A whole week with Gamma?! Come on, how much better could that be?! We're all so excited, and this Momma is going to REALLY get on the good eating and working out track so I can get my body somewhat back to look like THAT!

Leap Family Christmas 2012

Yesterday we had my side of the family over to our house for Christmas. My parents live upnorth, and they are in town because of doctor appointments and what not for my Mom.
My Mom and Dad, My sister and her Husband and my brother and his Daughter came over. It was a blast! It's been a long time since we've had everyone in the same vicinity....like, years. At least 3-5 years, I'm sure. So, it was good to have everyone together!
We ate, we opened presents, we laughed we were a family. And let me tell you, that felt so good! Chloe was amazing. For not ever seeing that side of the family, she warmed up to them really fast and enjoyed all the company. She really loves playing with my niece Jeralyn!
When we were eating dinner, We put Chloe in her highchair, where she always eats, at the table with us, but she insisted on sitting with Memaw Leap. INSISTED! So, we moved her highchair over by her, and she did so good! She sat with her and Jeralyn and had to much fun!
Here's pictures to show you how much fun we had!

Halloween Weekend Recap

This weekend was the first weekend that we didn't have anything to do! Andy put off his homework until Sunday, and I had a Scentsy party for Saturday, but it was cancelled. So, we took full advantage and went to the cider mill!! Chloe had a freakin BLAST! We went on all the little kiddy attractions and picked pumpkins AND bought some cider! Of course after that though, Chloe wouldn't nap, and she turned into the devil toddler, but that's besides the point! We had a lot of fun! See, take a looksie for yourself!

She is such a good poser for pictures! I love it! And she had such a good time walking around looking at the pumpkins. When we would choose one and ask her if this was ok? She would say "Noooooo......Look, Mama! Dis One!!" Adorable! Melted my heart!!
