There's No Place Like Roam

We had a great time in Orlando! We have never taken the kids to Disney and they decided they would rather go to the World of Harry Potter at Universal instead. We took one day to check out LEGOLAND while we were in town. Universal and Islands of Adventure are AMAZING!

Graham fell asleep on the way home from school yesterday (his first day back after winter break). When we made it home I ask him if school wore him out today. He sleepily replied "I had to write my first AND last name and draw all my numbers 1 to 100.  ❤️❤️❤️

I was able to check one thing off of my bucket list (well, actually replace it with another) during our January vacation. I've always loved manatee and I finally got to see them in the wild! I didn't know how easy it was to be able to snorkel with them. I definitely want to go back to Crystal River for more kayaking and some snorkeling!

Four years of Rock City and Santa. Look at how much they have changed!!

Traditions are the best. So glad to have found Old McDonald's farm in Sale Creek to continue our pumpkin patch tradition. Pumpkin slingshots and pedal tractors? YES!!!!

Now this little getaway was amazing! Blue Ridge, GA is adorable and the kids had so much fun picking apples. They are begging to do it again next year. This was Graham's 6th birthday present. We picked apples, and then took the train on an excursion to the next town over and found some yummy Mexican food for lunch. The train took us right back to Blue Ridge and the leaves were at peak this weekend. The Toccoa river ran near the train tracks and there were so many adorable cabins along the way. Will definitely check out VRBO for a future weekend trip!

Graham has been practicing his scissor skills at school. I ask him to keep it to paper only! He received a nice buzz cut at great clips just in time for cold weather! Reminded me of the time Hunter found his "brains".
