after our time in fort lauderdale we headed up to eustis where my parents live. ted and i stayed a day getting the kids settled and then the two of us headed out to ormond beach (which is just north of daytona beach). i didn't get enough pictures of our time there which i'm bummed about, but i did get some. we checked in around 4pm and headed straight out to the beach. we hadn't been to the beach (one where you could actually get into the water) in quite a long time. we borrowed boogie boards from the resort and headed out. i had forgotten how much fun 1- boogie boarding could be and 2- you could have without 3 small children constantly on your mind. don't get me wrong, i love my kids, but the complete freedom for ted and me to get away was so wonderful!! whenever we look at these pictures we just let out a long sigh. so, after boogie boarding for a while we went back to the room and got some groceries before heading out to eat. we found a quiet, little restaurant and had a pretty yummy meal. the next morning i woke up to the smell of freshly brewed coffee and bacon! my wonderful hubby made me breakfast. our room at the resort was a little studio so everything was pretty open, but it was perfect for us! after breakfast we headed back out to the beach for a stroll. then a little more boogie boarding.
after we were done get tossed around we headed onto the pool deck to relax. we grilled burgers out there and just sat at a picnic table eating our burgers and listening to the surf.
then we headed down to the boardwalk for some ice cream and a drive. it was nice being on our own timeline. we decided to get some seafood for dinner and then a movie. we headed back to my parents house around 10 am the next morning. i forgot just how much i enjoy being with ted and can't wait to do this again!!
