Vacation in Florida

We continued our spring break trip south to visit Nana, Grandpa and Gigi in Spring Hill, Florida. First, I have to brag about our little traveler. He has always been good in the car, but we have never done a trip longer than an hour or two. I was a bit nervous, but he did GREAT!! Our ride home was over 8 hours (thanks to spring break traffic) and he napped and happily watched his DVDs (Thank God for Baby Einstein!) the whole time. He only fussed when he was hungry or needed a diaper change. We are so thankful!

Except for some storms on the first morning, we had beautiful weather in Florida. Chris and his dad enjoyed several rounds of golf and a few fishing trips. Unfortunately, they did not catch our dinner. Mason, Nana and I played around the house, went shopping, 'lunched' with the ladies, and spent a lot of time in the pool. We went on several stroller rides through their beautiful village and had a lot of playtime with great-grandma. It was a very relaxing week and we were sad to see it come to an end so soon. I'm sure we will be visiting often as Mason gets older - especially since they are only an hour away from Disney!

Nana had a swing for Mason in her backyard. He loves to swing!
Mason playing with his Gigi (great-grandma). She was so excited that he came to visit!
This kid loves golf carts and cars of all kinds. He goes straight for the steering wheel.
Hop in - I'll drive!
On Thursday, we celebrated Grandpa's 65th birthday. It also happened to be Mason's 10 month birthday. We took the opportunity to get a few family photos.

Here are 4 generations of Henretty's.
Just the guys. Happy Birthday, Grandpa!
And Mason with the ladies.
Our little family of three.
And Mason being silly with Daddy.
Stay tuned for swimming pictures. Mason loves the water! And we took a ton of pictures, so I created a picasa album from our trip.
