9th Anniversary

April was such a fun month! To celebrate our 9th anniversary Chris and I were able to take a 4-day kid-free getaway to Florida. He was completing the last of a three-part Dental Implant course. Luckily we knew an awesome girl that was able to come and stay with the boys for the long weekend (probably longer for her than us :-)). We stayed at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress Resort where the course was being held. It was amazing!

There were several pool areas, but they were all continuous and connected.  Very fun!

I got to enjoy the pools and the spa while Chris was in his class.  One morning I got to take a long run around the lake and golf course. 

We had a great view of the lake from our room.  They had kayaks and paddleboats you could take out on the lake, and an awesome runnng/bike trail going around it.  The other side of our room had a view of Disneyworld and we could see the fireworks at night.

We spent one of our evenings going out to dinner and then to see the Cirque du Soleil "La Nouba".  We had front row seats and great views of all the action. 

I spent one afternoon at Crossfit Firebase Orlando (Crossfit is one of my new addictions!).  After a training session with Carlos I got to stay for the WOD (Workout of the Day).  Exhausting, exhilirating, and awesome.  That is Crossfit for you!

We spent our last day enjoying all the fun things at the resort.  First we biked to the nature trail and took a little detour to enjoy a picnic by the lake. 

Biking

Golfing

Rock Climbing


And we tried to make Sunday feel more like Sunday by driving out to the Orlando temple.  What a great way to end our trip!
