Fun fall weekend!

I feel like by this time of the season we have done so many more fall acitivies but this year we've been slacking!  I think with soccer and dance for the girls, that is keeping us pretty busy so doing other actitives has kind of taken the back seat.  :-(

Saturday morning we started our day at the soccer field.  From the pictures you'll see how well the game went for Payten.... or I should say how it didn't go well :-(

Payten was doing great in the beginning... but then her Daddy got frustrated and put in Camryn....  Payten has told us that soccer isn't her thing and that is okay.  But just like my parents taught me you must finish the season out.  It's only fair to your team.  So Payten needs to step it up for the last two remaining games, and I guess she'll just stick to the girly activities for now :-)
Cam did pretty well for her first game... I think she is going to be our soccer player :-)
 Despite him being frustrated, he still loves them to pieces!!

The weather was beautiful Saturday!  There was actually a breeze and wasn't crazy hot!  Well maybe it was when you were in the direct sunlight but it was still really nice.  A treat for us Floridians for sure!  We headed to SeaWorld for the Halloween Spooktacular!  We didn't do too much trick or treating but we had a blast seeing the shows and riding the rides :-)

Yesterday morning we had a yummy breakfast at Perkins.  We did some window shopping and then headed home.  Both girls were exhausted from our busy day on Saturday so they were both napping by 12:30p.  And of course I squeezed in a nap too!  I loev Sunday afternoon naps!  I had every intention of taking the girls to the pumpkin patch but once I was home I didn't feel like leaving the house :-(.  I am thinking we'll go one day this week after school!
Hope everyone had a great weekend!!  Happy Monday!

Weekend fun!

Get ready for major picture overload! We had such a great weekend! And lots of pictures to prove it!

Friday late afternoon we checked into the hotel. Thanks to my awesome hubby, he scored us a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom suite. I guess it pays to know big people in big places :-) The hotel was awesome! Great amenities. We didn't get to use to many but the indoor pool was great to take a night swim in, which we totally did Friday night. After we got checked in and settled, we drove down International drive to see what we wanted to do. We decided to stop at Fun Stop. It's a ride/arcade place for kids. AWESOME! The girls LOVED it!!! They literally rode ride after ride for almost two hours! And the best part it was only $14.99 for the unlimited wrist band! Of course we had to play in the arcade before leaving. The girls earned tons of tickets and traded them in for some prizes. Highlight of their night :-) We headed to dinner at TGI Friday's, hubby's choice :-) I love their appetizers! So three for all it was for me! After dinner the girls still had a bunch of energy so we headed back to the hotel and went for a swim. It wasn't until 11p or so that the girls finally went to bed :-)






Saturday we were up bright and early to head to Sea World. We got there around 9:30a. The ticket line wasn't too bad, and as soon as we walked in Shamu was there waiting for a picture :-) Camryn of course wasn't a big fan but she did manage to get in the family picture with us :-)

We went to almost every show at the park. The girls had a blast!!! I am so glad we decided to get the annual passes. We'll be coming back a bunch! Next time note to myself, wear flip flops and not wedge shoes, LOL. Lots of walking on hilly paths! :-) We were at the park until 6ish, then went back to the hotel to freshen up and head to dinner. We ate dinner at Friendly's since it was close to the hotel. The girls were exhausted since neither of them had a nap all day, so it was 8:30p and they were both fast asleep.










Sunday we packed everything from our hotel room and headed to breakfast to end our fun weekend. It was super chilly so we decided to head home early and get a head start on some of our weekend chores, laundry :-(. We had such a great weekend and look forward to doing this again REAL soon!!!
