Staycation Vacation

Cade took a few days off and instead of driving somewhere we decided to do a staycation. We headed to the beach for the first time with Peyton, went to the zoo(we were overdue), drove to College Station and went to Old McDonalds Farm!

This was the first time we went to the beach in hopes of not getting any sun--are we getting old? NO--just have a precious baby to protect from those evil sun-rays and I guess the hubby too. I mostly tan not burn (thank you Cuban genes).

Peyton didn't mind getting a little dirty in the sand and really liked going into the water...she more-so didn't like the toys at first but warmed up to them after a little while.

You would think she's ready for a show 

This was by far the funnest toy

oh I like the way this feels

No mommy I going back to the water

After 2 hours of fun in the shade. We changed and headed to Rainforest Cafe for lunch before heading home. Since Peyton is really into animals, this was the perfect place to go. She got to practice her monkey and elephant noises.

The next day we headed to Old McDonald's Farm (brings back elementary school memories of birthday parties).

I just woke up..where's my coffee?

she really liked the goats

they say what?

snack break 

Hi sheep!

trying to chase the doe

She really enjoyed it

Sunday we went to College Station--this will have its own post because its extra special!

The last day we went to the zoo. Peyton has learned so many different animal noises and signs since we were there last so we thought it would be good to see the animals instead of just see pictures.

doing her monkey

and we still don't like the carousel 

Cade has more pictures so I'll revise the post later to add.
