Enjoying our Staycation

Since we came back a few days early from our vacation in Costa Rica, we have enjoyed our home and the beautiful Florida weather (a little cool front, resulting in the same weather as in Costa Rica minus the rain). It was nice just hanging out at home, spending time with the kids in our backyard or going on little field trips, especially since Daddy was still off from work. Also, Amelia and Elliot loved playing with their toys in their rooms again. Being away from home for a while makes you appreciate what you already have.
On Thursday we fixed up the backyard and I decided to plant my vegetable garden again as we won't be moving for another few month now. In a couple of months we will enjoy some homegrown bell peppers, tomatoes, lettuce, broccoli, carrots and radishes. Of course, Amelia and Elliot helped me with the planting process. They also enjoyed their newly filled sandbox and the water table.
 
 
And since we have an annual pass to the Miami Seaquarium, we spend our Friday there. The kids really loved watching the dolphins and the killer whale. The weather was perfect and the crowds were minimal.
It feels great being back home again, but more so that we can enjoy time together. The kids don't care where they are as long as they have each other, Mommy and Daddy near by.
