Hiatus & Summer pics

Guess it's been awhile since I've blogged! I didn't intend to take a hiatus, it just sort of happened and I apologize. I think getting entirely caught up might be a bit overwhelming, so I'm just going to start up with our summer vacation pictures and go forward. So, here goes:

We drove to Florida and got to spend about 3 weeks there in July and August! Alan, the kids and I spent a week in a great beach house where we had so much fun!! At the end of the week, Alan flew back to VA and the kids and I stayed for almost 2 weeks at my parents. At the end of the 2 weeks Alan flew back and we all drove home and I am happy to report we managed to make the drive in one day!! The kids did AWESOME in the car!!

Here's a glimpse of all the fun we had:

We spent LOTS of time in the pool at my parents house




We had a Taiwan play date at my parents house/pool with Shana (from Orlando) and her 3 kiddos and Kathy and Jeff (from Kentucky) and their son. The kids have such a great time together even though we only get together once a year and of course the adults love having the time to catch up!!



We went to the Clearwater Aquarium where we saw "Winter" the dolphin!

We had LOTS of fun on the beach





we went to some really great playgrounds


and we went to the very cool Glazer Children's Museum, which is 100% hands on...the kids LOVED it!




and we attempted a little fishing outing, but it was pretty much a bust....oh well, maybe next time we'll have better luck!
