Zoo trip!

The Saturday before Vacation, the boys and I headed to the Louisville Zoo with Amber and Lilli. Griffin has been begging to go forever, and Grady has only been to the zoo once when he was 10 months old. It was time. We had an awesome time, despite the hot hot hot day and tons of walking& hills!

Pa-sticks Beach Vacay Day Four (DEAD)!

We will get to the random DEAD in the title in just a moment ;-)

Day Four was a beautiful day! The waves were still super strong but we got out there just a little to try it out. The guys were worn out just trying to stand in the strong waves!

















Grady continued to not like the sand. He did get some on him without freaking out, so maybe progress?!





We didn't stay at the beach too long and decided to head to the pool.





I ended up burnt! Ugh! The back of my legs and back, in splotches and weird patterns. Oh well...





We did naps (pretty much everyone except Griffin napped a little! Haha) and then played around the condo before we cooked dinner.

After dinner we headed to Coconut Creek golf and maze. They have a giant maze where you have to get to 4 checkpoints and then get out of. It was hard but really fun!











Everytime that we would get to a dead end, Griffin would yell out "Dead" instead of dead end. It was funny! And then we started yelling "Marco" to find each other and Grady even joined in, over and over. Haha!





Yep all that white is some of the maze- it was big!





We did make it out though!! Woo hoo! Then we did one of there mini golf courses. It was fun and the boys did really good considering how hot it was and how late.











Griffin actually played really well!





























My little monkeys!





We got the boys home and to sleep and then it was game time! Jenn & I played Dustin and Jacob in three rounds of sequence- and won 2 out of three! Go girls! Ha!

*Note from yesterday I forgot to write: I was picking what color to be in Ticket to Ride, and I chose yellow and said it was bc I am so cheerful and happy- to which Griffin immediately said "no you aren't!" Hahahaha!

Pa-sticks Beach Vacay Day Three!

Well after a great night of sleep, we woke up to crazy rough water and wind, and two red flags (meaning don't go into the water). So we headed to the pool.





Me and Jenn chose to read next to the pool while the boys played. Grady had a blast jumping into Jason. Griffin got cold quick and decided to cuddle with me :-)











All day planes flew by with this message to stay out of the water on them...











During Gradys nap, I finally got to play Ticket to Ride! And I really liked it. Jenn killed us all though :-)





Jenn and Griffin made some delicious chocolate chip cookies while Justin, Jason and I played sequence...

























We decided to eat out tonight and went to Captain Jack's for an all you can eat buffet with crab legs! Sooo good!









There were crawfish too, which Griffin played with like toys the whole night.





This was the view from our door when we came home, how gorgeous?!!





And I asked Grady to give me a kiss while we were hanging out, instead he laid down on the carpet and pretended to sleep... And then did it again everytime I asked. I tried to get it on camera but you know how that goes! Haha!





I took this pic to try to show how close the water had come in today compared to yesterday... If you look at the chairs you can tell...

















We hung out and played games with Griffin and then slept. Grady fought it tonight but did sleep well once he got there.
