Our Week with A Trip to Orlando and Ian's National Championship.

Hello Friends. How is your week going so far??  I am recapping last week when we went to Orlando for Ian's golf tournament. 

Monday, November 29th- 

Coffee, Jesus, Kids to school. Then I ran a few errands and home to do all the things. The day went by in a flash and before I knew it, it was time to get Ella from school, cook dinner, showers, and bed. 

Tuesday, November 30th- 

Coffee, Jesus, Kids to school. Another packed day of orders and getting everything ready to head to Orlando the next day. 

Wednesday, December 1st- 

Coffee, Jesus, Pack Orders, Finish packing, and we were on the road to Orlando a little before 10am. We got to our hotel, checked in, unpacked, and headed to City Walk. We ate dinner at Cowfish. Ian and Ben got the cheeseburger sushi. Then Ben and the kids played putt-putt before heading back to the room to crash. 

Thursday, December 2nd- 

We were up, ate breakfast, and were walking through Sea World by 10am. 

We loved the Penguins. 

It was so COLD. 

This little guy hopped all the way down to the window to look at Ella. It was so CUTE! 

Do you see the walrus' nose poking out of the water? 

At Noon, We watched the Orca show. I enjoyed a glass of wine. 

We left Sea World shortly after the show. A little after 2,  we were walking into Island of Adventures. 

Love a butterbeer. 

We ate mexican for dinner and crashed early into bed. 

Friday, December 3rd- 

The boys headed to the golf course for a Father/Son practice round while Ella and I headed back to Islands of Adventure. 

We rode the train over to Universal. 

We walked around for a little while looking at everything and rode the Rockin Roller Coaster. 

Then headed back to Islands of Adventure. 

That afternoon, the boys met up with us, we rode a few more rides, ate Italian for dinner, and headed back to the room. 

Saturday, December 4th- 

Ben and Ian headed to the course for Ian to play in the first round of the tournament. Ben sent us pictures and hole by hole updates. 

 

Ella and I had our picture made with Blue the Raptor. We had to "call" her. 

Ella was TERRIFIED. 

More updates from Ben. 

Ella and I watched Merry GrinchMas. 

Ian shot a 74 the round. 

Ella got tinsel added to her hair. 

We ate and watched the Georgia game at the NBC Bar and Brewery.

We walked back to our room during half time. Watched the rest of that game at the Lobby bar. 

Man, that was a game. YIKES. Not how we wanted it to end. 😭😭 We CRASHED hard. 

Sunday, December 5th- 

IAN'S BIRTHDAY and the final round of the tournament. 

We saw a few gators on the course. 

Ian shot a 79 the final round. He Tied for 14th place out of 76 players in his age group. 

We were on the road headed home around 2:30 and pulled into our driveway a little after 9. We unpacked, I started a load of laundry, Ben and I watched Yellowstone and we crashed a little after 11PM. 

It was a fun but exhausting trip.
