Family Vacation

Scott and I want to do fun things with just our little family. A complicated family vacation is a bit overwhelming right now. So, we planned a "staycation" and made a day trip of seeing local sights. The kids were wiped out at the end of the day and seemed to have a great time. We went to a restaurant for breakfast. The babies and I slept on the way to our next destination. We went to a children's museum. Richard and Audrey had a great time! They would have played longer if we would have let them.
We ate lunch at a restaurant. We then went to the zoo. We didn't really try to get Marie and Peter to see anything, because we were trying to help Richard and Audrey see the animals. True to my experience at zoos, a lot of the animals were sleeping. Others were MIA. Oh, well. I had to carry Audrey at the end. I think all the walking during the week just wore her out!
I think we had a great day! I'm glad we were able to do something as a family. Maybe when the kids are bigger when can do something a little farther away that lasts longer than a day.

What a great idea. I think we're going to do something similar before #3 arrives. Oh, and all of your family reunion, fun with family stuff looks like such a blast! I'm glad your mom was able to help so you could participate too. Hurray for summer and family bonding :)
