Fun in the Sun!!!

The kiddos and I went on our 1st vacation. We went to St. Petersburg/Clearwater area in Florida. We visited with Nana C. and Papa R. for a couple of days and then they went home and Daddy came from his business meeting in Orlando, and met us at the beach house. CQ got to see the Gulf for the very first time, and Buddah was a fish in the pool and in the ocean. We had a very, very, very relaxing time, but the kids both got really homesick after just 3 days. Buddah just started crying in the pool, totally out of the blue, talking about how he missed his Nana and Papa at home, dogs, and all of his friends. It was so cute, but he was really homesick! He kept asking me, "Hey mom, are you sad here? Do you want to go home?" I remember those days. He is so much like I was at that age...loves schedules, his own things, and familiar places and people. There is nothing wrong with that, right?
I had only 2 rules, no cell phone, and no computer for 6 straight days. I think I did pretty good.
Hope all is well with everyone, I'll post some of my favorite pics...enjoy:-)
