A Short But Sweet Florida Trip

The Birthday Boy!!!!

    Last Saturday Evening, Debbie, Kayley and I flew to Florida for my nephew's birthday. We were very excited to see him and his family for the weekend to celebrate his 6th birthday. I was also pretty nervous as well, because it was Kayley's first time flying on a plane. We departed from Detroit Metro Airport at 5:50pm and arrived to Florida at 8:37pm. (2hr and 36min flight) Kayley did GREAT! She played with the ipad most of the time and didn't fuss at all. I was so proud of her. When we got to Florida, Randy picked us up from the airport and IMMEDIATELY went straight for Kayley and held her. He was so excited to see her. Kayley was acting a little shy, but was soon very excited to see her Uncle Randy. It was so cute. Then he took us back to his house where we were staying. The kids were in bed, but we got to spend some time with Randy and Taylin before going to bed. The next day was Logan's birthday and we went to church in the morning and then went to the park to celebrate his birthday. He had a SkyLander Party. I'm sure you can check it out on Taylin's blog and read all about it. It was very cute and all his friends and family had a good time. Yesterday, was our last day there, so we went to the Naples Zoo with Tay and the kids. We had such a great time. Chloe and Kayley got to feed a giraffe and we got to see an alligator feeding and ride on a boat to look at all the monkey islands. Then we had Chloe's "Fake Birthday" at Olive Garden and Randy met us there from work. Then we went to the "Pirate Ship" playground at an outlet mall so the kids could play before we had to go back to the airport. Taylin and the kids dropped us off at the airport and it was hard saying goodbye. Especially for Logan.....He didn't want us to leave. But hopefully we will get to go to their house again soon. Thank you Randy and Taylin for letting us stay at your house and all the fun we had. It was so good seeing all of you and can't wait to see you again. Love you all!
