Christmas in Florida!

Well where do we begin. The Zakrzewski family made their way over to Florida this year to celebrate Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa Leyva! We were there for ten days and had a great time. We stayed busy most of the time and really took advantage of the time we had together. This was Mikes first time meeting Carlos and of course they bonded instantly. While we were there we were able to make our way to Clearwater beach, visit the Aquarium and have some of the best meals EVER. Mike and I were also fortunate to have our own little night out while grandma and grandpa watched our little angel for us.

There were a few surprises along the way. I contacted Mike’s childhood friend Kristina (lives in Orlando) and set up a surprise visit so that she could see mike. We met at IHOP and then had scheduled to spend the day at Busch Gardens. Well the surprise was perfect! Mike was so confused and did a double take about two times. It was a great day and a lot of fun. It was just nice to be able to do something unexpected and meaningful.

We were there for ten days but on Christmas day Aunt Rachey, Uncle Troy and Cousin Noie flew in! It was great, they got there and the little angels opened up their presents. Of course their grandparents knew just how to spoil them. When they were there we went to the park, the most awesome library ever and had some great quality time. We also went to a childrens museum, this was about the coolest place I have been to in years. Following, grandma and grandpa took all of us our for dinner to the most amazing resturaunt. Also, Brayden and Noie got to play and talk to each other and those moments were priceless! Those two are just something else.

This was a much needed trip for everyone and it was very memorable. There isn’t anything we would change. That was the first time I think that the family has been together. Times like these don’t come that often but when they do they are unforgettable!

After the aquarium grandma had to take a business call so Mike, Brayden and I took a tour of this enormous WWII battle ship. Very impressed.

CHRISTMAS EVE and CHRISTMAS-

CHILDRENS MUSEUM-

These were floating balls and Brayden was able to catch on in mid air! So smart!
haha Need I say more!











While we were there Brayden started crawling backwards. Now that we are home he is making his way all over the place. It is amazing to see how quikly these little ones grow up. I knew they said it would go by fast but this is ridiculous. Either way we had an amazing time in Florida enjoying the 70 degree weather. This trip was amazing and tons of fun just sad to see it end. Love you guys!
