A Perfect February Vacation

The four of us headed down to Florida on the 15th for a week of sun and fun.  We got really lucky, because the weather was perfect – 70’s and sunny.  It felt so good to be in warm weather again, because it’s been SO cold here this year.  As usual, the boys had a great time swimming in Nana and Papa’s pool.  They’re definitely little fish.  The six of us headed to Disney World for part of Hayden’s 5th birthday present.  They had so much fun and Bennet couldn’t have been funnier.  He got so excited every time the monorail came around.  For him, I don’t even think we needed to go inside the park.  He would have been content just riding the monorail all around the parks and resorts.  Overall, it was such an awesome week!  We can’t wait to go back this summer.




Both boys have no fear when it comes to jumping in.



I think we’ve seen this sky writer every time we’ve been at my parent’s house. This was the first year I actually took a picture.
The boys out grilling.  Could Hayden look anymore tired?      

Bennet’s face when he saw the monorail.  We saw this face several times that day.

 
The boys loved the parade on Main St.

This explains their personalities.  Hayden holding back with his hands in his pockets and Bennet dancing in the street.

This little boy couldn’t have been happier to ride the choo-choo train.


 

Long day for this little guy.
Celebrating his birthday early with a cake by the pool.  His kind of birthday.

Our Boys at 5 and 3

I wanted to get some new individual pictures of the boys since they’re now a year older (how did that happen so fast?).  I took these last week on vacation at my parents.  I can’t believe how big the boys are getting.

The Beginning of Winter 2014

The past two months have been really busy with the holiday season and Bennet’s big third birthday.  The four of us had a great time seeing all of our family, exchanging gifts and playing a lot of games.  It’s been super cold this season, so we’ve been spending a lot of time inside hanging out and acting silly.  This frigid weather has all of us anxiously awaiting our trip to Disney World next month.  Can’t wait to feel the warm Florida sun.

































 

Visit with Santa 2013

I took the boys over to see Santa this morning just for fun.  The two of them were very excited to see him again this year.  Hayden told Santa that he wanted the Wii game, Wipeout 3, and Bennet said that he wanted a super duper big choo-choo train.  Bennet also was very concerned where Mrs. Claus was as well.  I think he asked Santa a couple of times if she was around.  While we were there, we asked Daddy to come over on his lunch hour and meet us for lunch.  We were lucky and he was free so we were able to have a nice lunch with Daddy on a weekday.  Fun times!
