Spring Training and Baby Training for T+S

This weekend we were lucky to have our good friends Todd & Sara visit from Columbus, Ohio. It was a quick 3-day weekend for them, but we packed in a lot of stuff! Though we were minus Mike & Audra & Brook, and in Florida instead of Arizona, this constituted our annual spring training trip. T+S arrived on Friday and headed right to the Kissimmee Ballpark for a Reds vs. Astros game with Kris and Karmann (Holly had to work.) Then we headed downtown to Thornton Park for dinner at City Fish, which was a lot of fun. But with an early rise and a big day ahead of us on Sat, we all headed to bed fairly early.
Saturday, we woke up early and headed to Lakeland to visit Florida Southern College to see the Frank Lloyd Wright buildings. This campus has the most number of FLW buildings in one place, and since T+S are architects, too, we figured it would be a fun little trip. (BTW, this was Karmann's first FLW visit, too!) After that we headed to Disney for a game between the Mets and the Braves, and then strolled through Celebration after and had some ice cream, too!

As I mentioned before, Todd and Sara are expecting a baby in July, so this was not just baseball spring training, but a little "baby training" for them as well. They were both naturals and are going to be great parents! I think they would have taken Karmann home with them if we had let them! Karmann enjoyed hanging out with them as well and she (and we) can't wait to meet the little one soon! We so look forward to Spring Training AZ9 next year! After a big day Saturday, Sunday was laid back as we had breakfast at "Chez Stenger" and then headed to Winter Park for the annual Art Festival. The weather has been so nice all weekend, and Sunday was no exception. It was a crowded event, but we all had a great time seeing some interesting art and eating great "fair food"! Unfortunately, Sara and Todd had to head back to the Midwest this afternoon, but I think we all had a great time. Next time we see them there will be a new addition to the family and we look forward to that as well!
