We had an absolute blast during spring break with a trip to Florida. We started planning a few months ago and the girls wanted to go somewhere they had never been before. Disneyworld has always been on my list of places that I wanted to take them but I didn't really want to go with a toddler or kid who was too young to really enjoy it (or keep up!). I'm so glad I waited - they were the perfect ages for it and such great travelers. We began our trip in St. Petersburg on the gulf coast and ended it with some time in Reunion FL with our cousins from Connecticut. In the middle, we did 3 days in the parks (1 day for my husband) and I put Big in charge of our itinerary, the Genie + / Lightning Lane situation, eating plans etc. I joked that I just wanted to follow behind with the credit card and in the end, it took a lot of pressure off and made it so much more fun. She did an awesome job. I took so many photos but here are just a few. . .

In other spring break fun, we tried another Instagram recipe for Peep Rice Krispy Treats. Big didn't like them but the rest of us did - you could combine or mix colors / styles of Peeps. We found we had to increase the amount of Rice Krispies when we stirred it up because it was too marshmallow-y.
Peep Rice Krispy Treats (makes 9)
15 peeps (1 package)
3 cups Rice Krispies
3 T butter
Put the peeps in a greased 8x8 pan. Pour the Rice Krispies over. Top with slices of butter. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 5-10 minutes or until the marshmallows are melty. Stir to combine. Add more Rice Krispies if necessary. Pat down. Let cool before serving.
