No more Pizza!!!

This weekend was all about relaxing at the pool and really spending quality time together as a family.  Moving to Florida has really drawn us all even closer together than we were before because we literally are together 24/7. No mamaw and papaw down here for the kids to ask constantly if they can go to their house and the kids are even closer. They play together all the time and I love that they have become best friends, although they do still fight constantly but hey isn't that what brothers and sisters do. Since we spend so much time together we are always looking for different things to do and since we have moved to Florida we have literally explored the 100 mile radius around us. This weekend though we wanted to stay close to home and just relax so we headed to the local swimming pool. We  spent all day Saturday at the pool and then stopped to get some movies from the redbox on the way home. Normally we just buy on demand movies buts $6.99 adds up pretty quick. The kids had so much fun at the pool, Kaden is becoming such an amazing swimmer he just runs and jumps in 11ft of water like it nothing. He had to pass the swim test before they would let him go down the slide because it shoots you into 11ft of water. Bryleigh wanted to go down the slide so bad, she is a pretty good swimmer but she can't keep her self up that long and especially in that deep of water by herself so she wasn't to happy with that, I wish they would have let Travis or myself go down the slide with her but I guess they have rules for a reason. Bry has learned to swim under water, I was actually watching the bucket list family and I saw how the dad was teaching his kids to go under so I started to do the same. You would be amazed at how quickly a girl dives under water to save her baby dolls, we started on the first step and she just kept going deeper and deeper. It was the cutest thing hearing again, again!! 

Sunday we did the exact same thing pool and movie. We had to go to a different pool though because the one we went to on Saturday is closed on Sundays.  We headed up to Punta Gorda and the water in that pool was ice cold. Literally every time I had to get out and then get back in it took my breath for a minute and the kids just jump in like it nothing. We played basketball in the water, Travis and Kaden raced swimming laps and I tried to race Bryleigh but if you get in front of her at all she says your cheating (I guess we shouldn't let her win at everything because when she loses now she thinks everyone is cheating haha). They finally opened up the diving board which is what Kaden and Travis were waiting for, Kaden jumped in line and jumped right off into cold 12 feet of water and he just kept jumping over and over until they closed down the pool where the diving board was. I don't know why they only leave it open for 30 minutes. We got to swim for a little bit longer until it started lightening. 

Travis and I have been talking about getting strict on our eating habits we have really slacked a lot lately, so we said Monday starts a new day. No more cheating except on cheat days. There is a pizza place here that has flavored crust and I've really been wanting to try it but they didn't have dine in and the kids wanted to go somewhere and eat so we went to Joe Daddys pizza. It was our first time there, its a brick oven fired pizza place. We got the Hawaiian pizza and it was good but it wasn't the best, normally I love hawaiian pizza but there was some kind of weird seasoning or something on it so when we have another cheat day I want to try the regular pepperoni and cheese because I do love brick oven fired pizza so hopefully it is much better. The people at this pizza place though were so sweet. The guy making the pizzas came out and talked to us while our pizza was cooking, I'm pretty sure he was the owner. He just talked to us about Florida and where we moved there from and we found out him and his family actually moved here from Philly. We all agreed we do not like the cold!

So here is to a healthier lifestyle, today starts a new eating plan. I don't want to say diet because it isn't really a diet its a lifestyle change.
