Back from paradise... {Jersey Shore Photographer}

Yup... vacation's over. :( We had such an amazing time and none of us wanted to leave our little piece of paradise...

We spent a week at the Hard Rock Hotel in Orlando...

This is the view from where I sat poolside each day... isnt it amazing?
The view above me...


I swear my son grew gills from spending so much time in the water... we both must have gone down this incredible water slide a few hundred times - it was soooooooooooo much fun!


I even let Matty get a "tattoo"... a very cool cobra. He got so tanned while we were there that when the tattoo faded away, he was left with a white cobra where the skin below didnt tan!


Love this mural we found in Universal Studios...


And the old cars in front of "Mel's Diner"...


And no trip to Universal is complete until you've put your head into the mouth of "Jaws"!


If my husband didnt snap this picture you'd never know I was there!


And OMG how I loved the backlot sets - a photographers dream. My boys obliged for just a few... and I especially loved this one.


It was a great trip... one I think my boys will remember for a looooooooong time to come!
