Our Trip

Our trip to florida was so much fun. The kids had a blast and it was so fun for them to have that one-on-one time with my grandma, or "Manny" as Reagan calls her. Besides the kids not sleeping very well the rest of the trip was great. Here are LOTS of pictures to show what we did.

Reagan and Brody looking at the planes... Reagan was very excited but a little dissapointed when we didnt have a pink plane. they both did pretty good on the flight... I am just glad it was like a 3 hour flight because I think an hour was there limit.


Reagan wasted no time jumping in the pool. I brought her 4 bathing suits but for some reason she was really attached to this one and its the only one she wore all week.


Reagan and "Manny"
Reagan became a pro in the pool. By the end of the week she was swimming like a fish. It was so fun to watch her learn.


We cant go to Florida without going to the Lowry Park Zoo. My grandma came with us and helped rangle kids. It was nice because we got to do all the things we missed out on when we went earlier this summer and Damian got sick.

Brody really enjoyed it this time.... he loved looking at all the animals.

Feeding the birds

REagan loved this roller coaster the first time we went so she HAD to ride it again but insisted that "Manny" ride it with her, not mommy.

The petting zoo

Feeding the giraffes... they have freakishly long tongues.

It was really neat to be so high up at there level.

Feeding the seagulls at the beach
The tide was out so the sand was really mushy... Reagan didnt like it so much.

Brody never managed to get a swim suit on before he got in the pool... it was him and a diaper all week.

The last night my grandma pretended to "fall in" when she was playing with Reagan. This is a big deal since in going there my whole life I have probably seen my grandma in that pool 3 times.


All in all it was a great trip with great memories... who knows, maybe this will start being a football season tradition for me and the kids... why should Stephen get to have all the fun right?
