This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of VISIT FLORIDA. All opinions are 100% mine.

I was recently approached by VISIT FLORIDA to share about why we love Florida so much, so I am really excited, because this came at the PERFECT TIME!   Have you been to Florida?

My husband and I were lucky enough to stay at a beautiful resort in Florida for our first anniversary and we want to get back there soon.  The weather is great, of course, and there was never a boring day!  We swam every day, went to Disney, enjoyed our time out and just loved it.  It was great.  We have family there, so it was nice to visit with them, as well.   We are taking our kids to Disney soon and on top of that, our 9 year anniversary is this year and I have found the perfect trip!

Before I share it with you… Did you know that Florida was first explored in 1513?  That means that people have been visiting or living in Florida for over 500 years.

Being the money-saver that I am, I wanted to share something with you that VISIT FLORIDA shared with me.   They have a sweepstakes where you can win something every week.  They are running it for all of 2013, so I entered.   It is Florida’s 500 Years of Adventure Sweepstakes.   You can find it here: Florida’s 500 Years of Adventure Sweepstakes

So,  here is the idea:
You enter to win  here Florida’s 500 Years of Adventure Sweepstakes & you could win one of these (oh-so-amazing) prizes!
1).  A trip for two to the South Seas Island Resort
2). a romantic getaway at Gloria and Emilio Estefan’s newest resort
3). Stay at the Shores Resort & Spa (you get to ride in a Nascar Race Car, too)
4). A G
olf buddy getaway for two at PGA National Resort & Spa
5). A four day trip to Key West.
6). A six-day trip to
Captiva Island, which is perfectly nestled between the Gulf of Mexico and Pine Island Sound at ‘Tween Waters Inn Island Resort
(Here is what it looks like when you enter (this is my entry):

I would love to win the six-day trip to Captiva Island!  Look at this description & you will see why (relaxation, anyone?):  The resort sits on 13 gorgeous, tropical acres with miles of Gulf of Mexico sugar-sand beaches to explore that feature extraordinary shelling, fishing and sanctuary island fun. It includes:

·      A six-day car rental  from Hertz
