This weekend we went to Florida to visit Robby's grandparents, Dee and Sam. We had a wonderful time, and we were so thankful to relax in the sunshine and be with family!
This was Kate's first time on a plane, and she was a trooper! She learned to nap on Robby and me in the plane, and only cried for about 5 minutes of the whole trip (a minor miracle!).
Trip highlights Include:
- Swimming in Dee and Sam's heated pool. Truly amazing to be outside and in a pool again!
- Eating delicious meals (Kate perfected saying, "yummy" and "one more." She really is a girl after my own heart!)
- Going on a date with Robby while Dee and Sam babysat Kate (THANK YOU, Dee and Sam!)
- Visiting MOTE aquarium--I have never seen Kate so excited about anything! She kept running to all of the tanks and saying, "fish, fish" and trying to kiss them.
- Robby enjoyed getting a little color (for the record: Claire does not even try anymore--it's a physical impossibility!)
- AND most importantly spending time with Dee and Sam!!
It was in the high 70's and sunny for our trip. When we returned to Charlottesville, it was 32 degrees outside, and we had icicles hanging from our car! Talk about a shock to the system! BRRR!
Here are a few of the pictures from our trip:
Getting ready to board her very first airplane!

Ready to swim!
Relaxing by the pool! Kate loved splashing in the water!
Touching a crab at MOTE aquarium!
She was in awe! "Check this out, Dada!"
Talking to Dee at the aquarium...Kate had quite a lot to say!
This one cracks me up... I love these photo boards... Kate was not too sure!
On our way to our dinner date! What a handsome guy--Oh yeah, and those wheels are pretty nice too! ;)
Kate loved to ride the elevator at their house...her mama liked the stool in the elevator. We gave it a heck of a workout!
Kate sharing her new manatee with Sam...quite an honor!
Reclining on the deck and enjoying a pain au chocolat...That definitely deserves a "YUMMY"!!
We miss you already, sunny Florida!
