Since our focus this spring break was rest and relaxation, I opted not to post every day and just enjoy the trip while we were on it. So, we are breaking things up a little differently this time! Let me know what you think! This year, Rick and I are not fortunate enough to have the same spring break, but knew we still wanted to take a trip together.
