Weekend fun in Winter Park










Hi Everyone!
I can't believe it's been nearly two weeks since I've posted.
I thought I'd show you pictures of the Winter Park Art Festival that we enjoyed yesterday.
Our boys were at a birthday party, so we took advantage of our time with Lydia.
As you can tell, I didn't take any pictures of the art, but I took plenty of some of the homes in the area.
Andy did manage to snap a shot of me in that straw hat. 
Someone had an entire booth full of every shape and size of straw hat that you can imagine.
I'm all about a straw hat, but they were all around 250 bucks, so I think I'll stick to the ones at tjmaxx.

There was every kind of food imaginable, but I think I enjoyed the crepes that we bought the very best.
Does it get any better than a homemade crepe with nutella, fresh strawberries & bananas?
I can tell you, it didn't get any better than that for me yesterday.

I never want to come off like a bragger, but the weather has been perfection here in Orlando.
We've enjoyed lots of family walks in the neighborhood, drive-bys in Winter Park to look at houses,
and playtime at the park.
It's been a wonderfully needed break!
I'll be back next weekend with some thoughts on blogging.
