Vacationing

We just got back from vacation and we had so much fun!

We decided to take a break from the cold and see mama and papa in Florida. Most would think of Orlando with the beaches, Disney, Epcot, and many tourists but this Florida trip was mostly country, only one day at the beach.

It was so great to visit with Mama and Papa. B was actually playing ball and coloring with Papa which was so great to see. He would blow kisses to them both and would run around talking to Bogie.

We were able to ride the 4-wheelers, learn to drive the tractor, and do a bit of front porch sittin.

B’s first time on a 4-wheeler was during this trip and even though you cant hardly tell with his facial expressions I think that he really enjoyed it. We found him climbing up on one when we were trying to leave for breakfast. Hey this kids no fool and knows what he likes.

The tractor was a treat for all of us. All 3 of us got to learn to ride it and B was even pushing mom and dad’s hands off the wheel because of course at almost 2 you already know how to drive. He watched Jerry across the street on his tractor and you could tell that he was thinking ‘wait you forgot me!’

The beach was great with some key lime pie, sand castle building, Frisbee throwing, sunning, and standing in the waves. Yes it was still a bit cold for me to get in any more than knee high.  I have a picture of B running up to grandpa with a huge hug in the water.

It was wonderful for me to see Jeff and B bonding because I don’t get to see that very much with our schedules. He is such a daddy’s boy and Jeff is such a wonderful father. I loved to see them looking out from the porch in the mornings, playing ball, running around, riding the 4-wheeler and tractor, playing in the sand at the beach, and saying hi Bogie hi duck. Some memories that I hope to never forget with time and aging.

One thing that I was glad to come home to…B having his own room and own bed. He either slept with us all night or ½ the night and I sure got to missing my alone time with Jeff and B is quite the bed hog.
