Birthday Getaway Weekend

We asked Kaitlyn if she would rather a birthday party or a trip of her choice for a weekend. She chose a trip the beach (yay!!!). We had a BLAST! Daddy got a 2 bedroom condo on the beach at a resort filled with a ton of pools and water activities. We picked a weekend where daddy and mommy had Monday off so it was a nice 3 day weekend. 
We left early Saturday morning and checked in and then went straight to the beach. Kaitlyn was in her element. She is truly a beach girl. We played at the beach and in some of the many pools. We couldn't have asked for better weather- 89 degrees and sunny! That evening we went to dinner- 'birthday girl's' choice: Italian (spaghetti and meatballs!). After dinner the kids went to bed and slept like rocks!! 
The next day was a little cooler and cloudy so we decided to hit up the local outlet stores. The birthday girl scored with a new pair of sneakers and a Disney blanket (Frozen, of course). We also made a trip to the aquarium and saw real live mermaids! They did a underwater show that was so cool. After the aquarium, it was back to the pools to try the water slides and practice our jumps! 
That night, we took a walk on the beach with flashlights to find seashells....and for Mikey to find rocks! 
Monday morning we woke up bright and early and went straight back to the beach. We took advantage of all of our time in the morning there and back at the pools- lazy river! Then we packed up the room and checked out. Before we left the beach, we found an amazing place to play some miniature golf (putt-putt as mommy says!). It was so much fun!!! 
It was an amazing, fun weekend for our amazing, fun birthday girl. Thank you so much, Kaitlyn. We love you!!!!!
