Mini Vacation

MINI VACATION 

Took a week off from school to go down to Florida to visit my brother.  We needed a change of scenery and some time to just sit back and relax.  Normally try to do 6 weeks of school and one week off.  Things have been so crazy that I couldn't wait for this week to come.


On the way to Florida, the kids did so good on this long 9 hours drive.

Finally made it to Florida and went to the Farmers Market to enjoy some fresh produce and snacks.  By then little man was out again, so proud of how well he behaved in this trip.


Finally meet our niece Lilly, she is so perfect and sweet.


Our handsome nephew, Gus, we love this little man and are always excited to see him.



Pool time Fun 


Took the kids to the Children's Museum of the Treasure Coast, they had such a blast. She wants to be a vet when she gets older.


The kids are fixing a car, our little mechanics. 


Bigger version of the Operation Game


Fire Fighters on the way to the rescue 


Learning about our bodies


Pirate ship fun 


This pirate ship was so cool, they even got to blast balls as if it were a canon ball.


Fishing 


Dress up time


Mail carrier Kanani


Construction site, building a house


Drawing and more building time


Outside the museum


Learning about parachutes 


Dentist Kanani and Dartanian 


Went for a walk around the neighborhood and then went for a little sight seeing


Went to the arcade for the kids to do something different


Lots of fun games


After the arcade my brother took us to a Seafood Restaurant


Stopped by Martin County Beach for the kids to enjoy some time at the beach


Got a chance to experience Hutchinson Island Beach, the water was clear and warm.


Found a beautiful part at the beach to get these great shots of the kids on some rocks by the beach


So peaceful and relaxing 


So excited to have found a spot where we could swim with some fish, it brought back lots of memories of when I lived in Oahu when I was younger and swam with some fish at Hanauma Bay Beach.  Glad to have been able to share such a wonderful experience with my kids.  


After the beach we went to the pool that's in my brother's neighborhood to rinse off all the salt water and sand.  Of course the kids didn't mind at all since they just love the water.


Great memories were made with my family 


Can't wait to go back to make more memories


On our way back home we stopped at South of the Border, Kanani was so excited since this was her and Dartanian's first time here.


Kanani couldn't wait to get home and tell her dad all about her trip to FL and South of the Border.

Times like this is where I am so thankful we homeschool.  Very happy to have been able to just up and leave and have a wonderful week visiting my brother and getting some relaxation before getting back to our school week.

GOD BLESS!
