Valentine's Day Escape!

Good Afternoon savvy kings and queens!

As mentioned in a prior post, it is that time of year again; yes THAT time to spend $80 on flowers that will wilt away in 3 days and the day the entire world eats at a restaurant and catches a movie. This year, as Sean is going to school again and has class on V-Day, we decided to take the weekend prior to the actual day to celebrate valentine's day in addition to our one year engage-a-versary! I wanted to celebrate our engage-a-versary to kick-start our wedding planning again. So much has happened last year that we lost sight of everything but I want to get back into the swing of things. Also, we decided it would be a DFTW. For those of you that do not have the mouse-lingo down, that means Disney Fairytale Wedding. There are a couple of different ideas we are toying with, but I think I can say that Disney is the path we will be heading down.

Anyway, back to my original idea for writing this post. As Sean will be at work and school until late on V-day we decided to take this coming weekend as our time to celebrate. We booked a room at Disney's Vero Beach Resort, which I am suuuuuuper excited for. Neither of us have ever been there and we will be staying from Friday to Sunday. It is supposed to be an extremely relaxing place right on the ocean. We did pick an ocean-front room, which makes me even more excited.

The resort is about 2 hours from here, Orlando. We plan on driving there after work on Friday and having dinner at one of the restaurants: Shutters. Have I mentioned how excited I am? An entire weekend outside of the city chillaxing with my old man (sorry Sean) to the sound of the waves taking away any sort of work week stress! Epic!

We do frequent staycations at the Walt Disney World Resort, but this time it feels different. It feels more like a vacation because we actually have to drive to a place we have never been before. But, and here comes the big but, I just found out that it is supposed to rain all weekend. I told Sean but it did not seem to phase him very much. Also, during certain times of the year, you can see the itsy-bitsy tutle baby's make their way into the ocean. Now, to leave you salivating over my awesome weekend, here are some pictures:
