Orlando, Florida

Well, we did it!  We are experiencing Florida in the summer.  After spending the 4th of July in the Outer Banks, we headed to Thousand Trails Orlando for a spell!  Some of our traveling friends were here at the same time, so we were able to reconnect with some of our buddies!  There was fishing and kayaking at the lake for Braden. There were also two pools, the playground, Pokemon Go and Rec Center fun for both boys and their friends.  Bryan and I discovered the twisted game of Cards Against Humanity with four other FTF couples (and celebrated Louie's birthday!)  The boys experienced summer camp, SkyZone style and made some new friends and got tons of exercise!  Bryan and I were able to get back to our exercise routine (this park is really walking and biking friendly!)  Here's a little of what we did in Clermont...      

Summer in Florida means a great selection of campsites to choose from!

We loved our little slice of the Florida wilderness...until the ants invaded!

We discovered this deliciousness...Naan bread pizza (grilled with white sauce and mozzarella cheese)

All the things the boys love, all rolled into a week long camp! One of their FTF friends, Aidan, joined them for the week!  

Check out these fancy new socks!


Quick Meet and Greet at the Pool!  Summer in Florida means that the storms roll in just about the time you want to go to the pool :-)

Another view of our wooded campsite hideaway!


Our campsite in Section D of the campground is close to the lake... where the kids like to fish, where we can watch the sun set and watch fireworks that Disney puts off every night!

You never know when you're going to see a UFO!

They have hot air balloon rides just down the road in Orlando!

It was a beautiful moon....

Our FTF friends!  We enjoy spending time with this crew when our paths cross...and we make sure they cross often!!!

This picture makes me so happy!  Look at that face!!!!!
NEXT STOP....THE FLORIDA KEYS FOR MINI SEASON!!!!
