Florida

I can't believe I haven't blogged about Florida yet. We had a great vacation at Grandma and Grandpa's with these people:

And also with these people:

We couldn't get enough of the beach, and we went here as much as we could:

Dave always manages to catch one of these:

Beach buddies:

I think one of the best parks in the Orlando area for little kids is Cypress Gardens. It has a water park, little zoo area, water ski show, beautiful Florida gardens and most important lots of little roller-coaster rides like this:

A Banyan tree, you've got to love these things:

Josh even figured out how to take one of these:

Park buddies:

Strolled through Downtown Disney. Found a few Lego's laying around and the kids built one of these:

Found some water to play in:

The 'big' boys went to Kennedy Space Center (Josh won't stop talking about Jupiter):

And did as much of this as we could (Matthew is a lot braver then Ammon I guess ;) :

Grandpa and Grandma Bragonje are the best hosts ever. Thanks for all the fun activities and great meals. We also managed to get in a few sweaty jogs (thanks Ann, she's the runner I'm the slow jogger at best), a fun dinner with the adults, trip to the library, lots of shopping, two movies, the zoo, a playgroup with old friends, and fun late night talks. I'd never been on a two week vacation to one spot before and it was really so relaxing and fun to see the little cousins have so much fun together. Thanks again Mom and Dad.
