A few notes on our Florida trip

I never got a chance to do the postmortem on our trip to Florida...so here it is.

It was a fantastic trip...it was so nice to get away for a while - and we are always so spoiled when we go to Florida. The flights going there worked out fine - except that I was so cheap that I wouldn't spend an extra $10 to check my bag on Spirit at LAX (they charge separately now) and it ended up being a HUGE hassle to haul the duffle bag with all of our stuff plus my school books in it all over the airport. Sometimes I am too cheap for my own good. Thomas had a backpack with all of our carry-on stuff in it - books, cards, crayons, his games, everything. It is was so heavy, I couldn't believe he could carry it most of the whole 4 hours of our layover - that child is such a trooper sometimes.
