Annual Florida Trip

We were so excited to resume our annual trip to The Villages in Florida this summer to visit Jeff's side of the family. We always have so much fun there and look forward to catching up every summer.

This summer our trip was even more special, because we were able to meet our brand new nephew/cousin, Cash Courtright, a.k.a. Lil' Money. Ha! He is the most precious and laid back baby, and we were all instantly enamored with the little guy!

I'm in love! Look at that smile in his sleep!

More baby snuggles.

Look at that sweet face!

The only bad part about our trip this time around was that Grandma Cheryl ended up having some pain and being hospitalized on the very first day of our visit. We were so worried about her! After a couple of days of hospitalization, we got a late-night call that the doctors thought she had a highly contagious bacterial infection. And we had just returned from visiting her in the hospital, yikes. I spent a few days of our trip doing load after load of laundry, just to make sure the infectious disease didn't spread.

But thankfully, Cheryl was released from the hospital on Day 5 of our visit. The Courtright guys decided to have a little fun with her to welcome her back home.

Makeshift masks to protect the Courtrights from infectious diseases.

Now that's a scary-looking crew!


Welcome Home, but beware of infectious diseases!!

They made Cheryl walk through the masked entry, ha!

We were so thankful to have Grandma back home with us for the rest of our stay. Some of the highlights of our trip included a girls spa day with my beautiful sister-in-law, Christina, the guys' annual fishing trip, a fun day at Wet 'n Wild, and a golf outing for the guys.

Christina and I loved our girls day!

Another fun part of our trip was meeting Grandpa Jerry and Grandma Cheryl's new dog, Moose. Kaitlynn loved playing with him of course!

Grandpa and Kaitlynn enjoy Moose's company.

Grandpa Jerry holds Moose while he gives Cash a kiss, ewww!

As it usually goes, our fun week in The Villages was over before we knew it. We were sad to leave, but we were so glad to have had such a great week. And we all know what the sign of a great vacation is, right?

Connor argued with me for an hour that he did NOT fall asleep on the plane. Yeah right!
