So, the blog has been silent. We headed to Florida to see my cousin for a long weekend trip and boy did we have fun, and you know I went to the beach because I’m burnt! Crispy, even. I’d say I’m in pain, but who cares so long as the little one isn’t … and she’s not, though she did get a little reddish pink. I thought I’d share some favorite photos of mine from the trip.
This is from the Tampa Aquarium; she had a great time touching starfish, rays, and sea anemones and playing with the otters who were jumping around in their tank.
This is a gorgeous shot at Clearwater Beach in Florida; I do have others on Facebook if you are interested in checking those out. Wiggles didn’t like the sand at first and made daddy pick her up, but once I got her to take her shoes off and go in the ocean, she didn’t want to leave.
This is from our trip to Busch Gardens in Tampa. Wiggles wanted to ride the choo-choo as she calls it and she had a great time looking at all the animals. That’s my cousin, Carrie, in the background — thanks to her for letting us stay with her. We had a great time.
As if you couldn’t have guess what Wiggles’ favorite part of Busch Gardens was — Sesame Street Safari of Fun — where she got to meet her favorite characters.
Honeymoon Beach in Florida was the last trip for us before heading back home. Wiggles had a great time with Daddy on the beach and all of us really. They even made a sand turtle.
That picture of wiggles in the waves is so cute. Glad to hear you guys had a great vacation! Get some aloe for your sunburn if you haven’t already.
A much needed vacation for sure! Looks like everyone had fun. Sorry about your sunburn though!
Yes, the sunburn was unfortunate, but I’ll live
I’m glad you all had such a good time!
I felt relaxed, except for the sunburn. I am not really happy to go back to work, but one cannot pay bills and live without a job. lol
Glad to see you all had fun! The little ones are so curious at that age, it’s amazing what they can discover.
She is incredibly curious! Much like George the monkey!
That sounds like a great trip! It’s so much fun to watch little ones experience something for the first time.
I did love that. She was scared of the sand and the water at first, but at least she got over it pretty quickly.
That is such a fun area over there. We have taken our kids to the Aquarium, the Science Center and the zoo in Tampa, plus we try to take in some hockey or a concert or something too. Plus the beaches over on that side are beautiful. It has been INSANELY hot lately, and pretty rainy, but I am glad you had a good time!
I had no idea you were that close. For some reason, I thought you were on the other side of the state. But I did have a few short free hours this trip since we wanted Wiggles to have some fun experiences, which I think she did. It was extremely hot and I have some sunburn to prove it.
Wow, it looks like you had a great time especially Wiggles! There’s nothing like getting away for awhile and unwinding. I’m glad you had a good time.
I needed some unwinding time…
