Well, we are at the end of our second full day of vacation, and its been pretty good. We've had a little bickering from the girls, some whining....
Saturday we got to our hotel around 6:30, and unpacked the car. Thinking that since the store was just a short distance from the room and we could leave the girls at the room (with Ron's phone) while we went to grab a few odds and ends, we left to make our way to the Dollar Tree and Publix. We pulled in one of the parking spots, and my phone rings. It was Emily, and in the background I hear a loud noise and Emily says the fire alarm is going off and they are locked out of the room. Luckily, we were only 5 minutes away, literally. We went back to the store after we let them back in the room, and needless to say after Saturday we decided to not let them stay alone again!
Sunday we woke up, and ate some eggs and bacon for breakfast. We went to Walmart after that and spent the $75 in gift cards we had gotten from our UChoose account that TVA offers us. After that, we went and got some Starbucks, YUMMO! We came back and put all our groceries and ordered pizza for lunch. After pizza, the girls got ready and went to the pool. That's where they spent the rest of the night, until Ron was done with burgers and then they came in to eat. I also managed to get FREE bottle of Aleve at CVS before our trip to Walmart, then went back and got some fingernail polish so I could redo my toes.
Today we got up and ate a little breakfast. The water in my ear from the pool last night was pretty intense and it was really bothering me. Ashley told me about her homemade remedy of warm rice in a sock, so off to the Dollar Tree I went. (See the pattern of CHEAP)!! I got some rice, and a pair of socks, a set of steak knives for the steaks that Ron just HAS to have tomorrow night. I picked up some earplugs and a few other odds and ends. I went to a "beachside" store and bought a beach bag because I forgot to bring one. When I got back to the room, the girls were on their way to the pool. Lucky for us, our room is pool side and we can watch them from the room.
After about half an hour to 45 minutes of laying on the rice, Ron and I got ready to go down to the ocean. First time in a day and a half of being here. From the ocean we came to the room to eat lunch, then the girls went back to the pool. Later we took a shirt back to Pennys and then to Hog Heaven for dinner.
That's been our vacation so far. I will post pictures tomorrow since my computer does not seem to want to work tonight. Good night all!
