Visiting #Florida State University #FSU #Seminoles

If there's one thing my husband loves, it's the Florida State Seminoles! We just went on a vacation to Florida and we just had to make a stop! 

We picked a perfect day to go because there was no one there walking around! It was like we had the place to ourselves!! Maybe it's just the photographer in me but I like a clear shot and not having random people walking through it always a plus. 

What a beautiful campus!

I think the smile says it all, no? I'm usually the one that says, "Hey, this looks like a great photo." or "How about this shot?" but my husband took the lead (as I knew he would) and pointed out everything he want me to photograph.

Ok, I made the suggestion to take this shot ;) Look at those blue skies!!! 

These are 2 of my husbands favorite statues.

The only photo we weren't able to capture was Chief Osceola & Renegade. We had a hard time trying to find them but I can promise you the next time we go down we will find them.

Are you an FSU fan? 

Which photo was your favorite?

#Review for @Dollywood #SmokyMountainChristmas

 

I am so excited to tell you about our trip to Dollywood's Smoky Mountain Christmas!!

You can create Christmas memories that will last a lifetime! Dollywood is a 150 acre family adventure park in the Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee. Its mountain themed attractions, world class rides and award winning festivals and shows make Dollywood one of the top themed entertainment destinations in the US. Dollywood was so beautifully decorated with lights and decorations.

Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer comes to life with an exclusive visit to Dollywood this holiday season. You can meet Rudolph and his friends, including Clarice, Bumble the Abominable Snow Monster and Yukon Cornelius in Rudolph's Holly Jolly Junction, a magical area where festive fun awaits.

 After meeting Rudolph and his friends, families can head to Clarice's kitchen to decorate custom Christmas cookies or even take part in a few reindeer games! How cool is that!!

Feeling hungry? There are so many places to chose from. We chose the Backstage Restaurant and were seated right away!! Their buffet had so much to choose from but our family favorite was the make your own mac and cheese!

We even had a visit from Santa himself!! This was a truly magical moment for the little ones as they couldn't believe that Santa was standing right in front of them! They told him what they wanted for Christmas and he reminded them to help out around the house, play nicely with each other and listen to their parents! Thanks Santa!!

After we ate, we couldn't wait to go see the groundbreaking production of Dollywood's A Christmas Carol, which uses holographic technology to bring Dolly Parton to the stage as the Ghost of Christmas Past.

Following the show, we were given a special area that served us hot chocolate, cakes and cookies while we watched the parade!

 

 

 

 

 

 

And what's a parade without Santa!!!!!

 

 

After the parade, my daughter was so excited to meet Miss Lillian! She told Emily a quick little story and gave her a penny to make a wish!

Emily asked her if she could take a picture with her and Miss Lillian say yes, but only of Chicken Little could be in it, too!

There is so much to see and do down in Dollywood!

 

Do your children love to squash pennies? I know mine do!

 

 

If you are looking for somewhere fun to go this holiday season, we highly recommend Dollywood - Smoky Mountain Christmas!!! You're whole family will have a blast!

This just melts my heart!

Greetings From Florida

 We are having such a blast here! After Disney we headed to the In Laws to enjoy some Florida sun.... but the clouds seem to be out all week! Today we took a trip to Carrabelle Beach! We were hoping to find some sand dollars but all we found were shells, crabs and jellyfish! Maybe if the weather cooperates, we will go back tomorrow and search again. Last time we were here, we found about 20 of them! 

I've been itching to blog so you just might see some deals posted tonight :)

On Vacation...

I am so happy to report that we are on vacation!!! We left yesterday afternoon and departed to Orlando! See, the kids think we are just here to see Nana and Papa but what they don't know, is that we are going to Disney World on Monday!

The view from the sky was amazing! This was the first time our children have been on a plane. I gave the phone to my oldest and asked him to take some pictures for me :)

This is one of my favorite pictures he took. You can see that we are above the clouds just high enough to still see the land below! It's beautiful!!

Welcome to Orlando!

I'll update things in the evening!
