Playcation Day 1

We decided to squeeze in a road trip to visit family in Florida. We left Oklahoma at 8pm on Friday and drove through the night to get to my mom’s house less than 24 hours later. It was a grueling drive in some parts, but we had a driver to help us out this trip.

Our 3rd Driver Power Napping After Her Shift

My mom (the kids' lola) had a comforting meal of mushroom chicken and rice waiting for us when we arrived and we were so glad to be out of the car! My mom's place is just as lush (if not lusher) than it was the last time we were there. No alligators spotted this trip.

The next morning, my mom had some of our family from the Philippines over and they brought treats. Puta maya and biko - sweet rice treats. Yummy!

There was a lot of napping that day followed by periods of feeding - seafood and cuban sandwiches, oh my!!

Then on Monday, my brother took us out in the ocean.  Salt water is good for the soul and my soul needed the time with family. It was a great day on the water!

I don't think my kids caught any fish, but they sure fed the fish a lot of shrimp. And it was so sweet to see how their cousin Zeke was so patient with each of them trying to show their landlocked, inexperienced selves how to catch fish.

What a great day with family!
