The Almost Family Vacation

It's all winter's fault. If we could just see the sun at least a few times a week maybe we wouldn't want to leave so bad but not so much this winter. I have some paid time off running out and must be used by March 12th. We talked it over and thought about taking a weekend trip somewhere. Nothing sounds appealing since everything within driving distance is all still cold. We thought of going to visit Dave's sister in New York but was a little out of the price range and would have loved to book some Caribbean cruise that was on "sale" also out of the price range. Then while brainstorming Dave looked on Allegiant for tickets to Orlando where Dave's dad has a condo we could possibly use. We found tickets on the exact dates we would need for all three of us for 265. Wow! I almost booked them right then and there. But we waited to make sure we could use the condo, and to find someone to help watch the dogs. As we waited for them to all get back to us we started to really think, should we really be leaving on a somewhat expensive (for us) vacation in just three short weeks? Although the sun sounded sooooo appealing what the heck would we do in Orlando for a week with a baby??? All the amusement parks and "fun" stuff would be out since he is too young so we decided to put it off for five years or so when Jaxson could have fun too. I do have to say it was nice to think we were really going on vacation for a day. It almost satisfied the need for a vacation... almost.
