Vacation

We just got back from a week of relaxing on the beach in Florida. It was such a great time. We flew which was a first for both boys and they did awesome. We were a little nervous about it but everyone around us on both flights commented upon landing how well they had done.

We spent all but one day enjoying the beach. Drew loved jumping into the water and acting like a crazy three year old boy. I think he probably could have stayed out in the water for hours every day if we could have. Poor Cade wasn't as fond of the beach. He would fall or get pushed and end up with his face covered in sand. He would also get mad at the water when it would come up too far and disturb his play area.

We took a day and went to a nearby zoo. It was so hot there but we still had fun. The boys seemed to enjoy getting to look at the different animals and luckily they had lots of shaded areas to help you avoid the heat. The zoo definitely wasn't as good as the Omaha zoo but it was still a good time.

Mitch was also able to talk me into going to Disney for a day. I really had not planned at all to do that since our kids are so small and it was 90 degrees. I didn't cave until 11 that morning when we were leaving the beach. We ended up being there from 3:30 until 12:30 which made it nice to miss a lot of the heat and crowds. The boys had a really good time even with staying up until after midnight. It'll be fun to go back when Cade is older.
