That's right MMMM I am full of suprises and plan to stay that way. I am truly sorry I couldn't have come back. Sharon's Mom seemed to have the rest of the week planed for us. AGGGHHH! And she says the same too. hahaha It was a very nice vacation, but took its toll on me. I need a vacation form my vacation.
We drove down on Friday to Melbourne, Fla (630 mi.) Where Sharon's Mom and Dad and brother live. We stayed at Wickham park. Really great campground. If you get a chance go there.
Saturday I took my kids to Orlando to see their Great grandmother and two great aunts.(To remind you, Sharon and I have six kids between us. Three each. Sharon's are 14, 13. and 6 and mine are 9, 2� and 1.) Got back around 9:30. (80 some miles round trip)
Sunday to Sharon's brothers for Easter where Sharon's folks and her sister thought they would be late and all the candy we hide melted. So you can guess what fight got started there. (6 miles)
Monday, Sharon took her kids to Sea World and I took mine to see MMMM and then to see there folks again in Orlando. (80 mi. some for Sharon and close to 100 mi. for me)
Tuesday, To the beach cross the street from Patrick A.F.B. All day in the sun and the sun block don't work on us mountain folk. Sharon's 12 year old and my 9 year old got sun blistered. Then to back to camp and Sharon's brother and family came over to watch the missle launch which didn't happen. (15 Mi.) Had to put up with whinning all night from blistered kids.
Weds., All of us went to Universal Studios for the day. Then to watch missle launch, didn't happen again. Back to camp by 12:00 midnight. (80 some miles)
Thursday, Free day at camp then to Sharon's folks and then to her brothers. Back to camp at 11:00 pm (15 miles)
Friday, Full day of packing and left by 4:00 pm. 1� hour watch at Denny's in Jacksonville, Fla and little mishap on Matthew's part in Ga. and a 1� hour delay in S.C. due to construction got us home at 5:30 this morning.
To let you know my daughter wakes up no later than 6 am. So we are dead. smile Oh well The Brady's sure make it look so easy. HA!!! We did have a lot of fun despite Sharon's Mother haha and again I am so sorry I couldn't suprise you again MMMM. But we did think about you see you in June. Hope it is not as busy for you all... DON'T BRING THE KIDS!!!!!!! hahahaha please bring the kids. I may have mine alll 6 !! Smile
