Babycation/Anniversary Trip

As I think about these last two years I have gotten to spend with my amazing husband, I feel so incredibly blessed.   We love our house, love our church, got a new ride, and a baby on the way.  No, I am definitely not trying to brag, but seriously am blessed beyond belief.....





One this Ron and I promised each other before we got married was that every year, no matter where it way, we would take a little getaway vaca for our anniversary.  Last year we went to Cocoa Beach and this year we got to spend time in Daytona Beach.....


Saturday Morning, before we left, we were able to order our Crib for Addyson, thanks to Ron's sweet parents.  It was so nice to be able to order it and feel like there was one less thing we had to do before our trip...We are so excited to get in on Thursday


we left for the beach and enjoyed a nice drive to Daytona...It was raining a little, but by the time we checked into our hotel, the rain had stopped and it was a nice night....Plus when we checked in, we found out we had been upgraded to a King Suite with a Jacuzzi Tub!!!! (Not that I could get in the Jacuzzi Tub, but it was nice for Ron)

We spent the next couple of days sleeping in, going out to eat, walking on the beach, playing frisbee, swimming in the 2 pools the resort had, catching some waves, and enjoying each other.  It was so nice to sleep in past 10:00 every day.  I know I won't get to do that for much longer, so I definitely enjoyed it....




On the night of our anniversary we decided we would walk to the restaurant called Top of Daytona....The walk ended up being much longer than we thought and by the time we took the elevator up the 29 stories, to the top, we soon realized dinner was about $50 a person....and we should have done our research...by the time we walked a mile back, I was way tired....We then proceeded to choose a place to eat that made us wait over 2 hours...By that time, I was tired and hungry, and the hostess couldn't tell me when we were going to be able to eat...We talked to the valet guy and he suggested going across the street to this cute little Italian restaurant.....We walked right in and got a table and the food ended up being amazing...too bad we didn't choose that place two hours before.....

These were our, "Oh my goodness, I am tired and hungry pics" once we finally sat down to dinner


The last day we ended up visting the Ponce De Leon Lighthouse....I definitely climbed all 204 stairs, 6 months pregnant, but the view was totally worth it...We visited the Wildlife Rescue Center as well... and ended the day touring a chocolate factory...It was a great day....as we made our way home last night, it was nice to be in our own beds....but was sad vacation had to end.....









 As the time till delivery gets shorter and shorter, I am so thankful for an amazing husband and a God who loves me, and takes care of me.....I simply cannot wait to meet Addy.... and this trip only made it seem more and more real....

Anxiously and Patiently waiting what's to come
