Goodbye Florida, we will miss you!

May was our last month in Florida.  I had mixed feelings about our move.  I was excited for Andy to be done with classes and homework and tests, and I was excited to be closer to family.  At the same time I was sad to leave the friends that we had made, and the amazing weather, the beaches, and all the fun stuff there is to do in Florida.  We lived in Florida for three years and it went by soooo fast! Now that we have been back in Washington, it's almost as if it didn't actually happen... I feel like, wow, did we really live in Tampa, and get to do all those amazing things like go to Disney World (I don't know how many times), and live 10 minutes from Busch Gardens, and 45 minutes from beautiful white sandy beaches?  Our last month in Florida was our party month before we moved home, both of our families came into town and celebrated with us.

Andy finished up classes in the beginning of May and the Hague clan came down for some fun in the sun at Clearwater Beach and a week in Disney World.  It was so fun to be able to enjoy Florida with the Hagues, we missed Audrey though.

We couldn't have asked for better weather at the beach.  I missed all of the wild life spottings, but Dallin and Cassie saw a manatee swim by them, a couple dolphins were spotted, and Darran saw two small sharks swimming along the shore line!

Brayden is always a wild man on the beach, he has no fear of the water and heads straight for it.  He wants to swim in it by himself and gets mad when mom and dad try to hold him back. If he isn't trying to get in the water then he can be seen running down the beach, or flirting with cute girls in bikinis! Elayna captured a rare moment of Brayden actually sitting with mom.

After the beach we had a fun week at Disney World.  

Jungle cruise safari!!

We stayed at the Animal Kingdom Lodge and had a great view of the animals. Andy and Brayden are on the balcony of the room we stayed in.

Another fun week at Disney.  Lots of fun family memories were made!  May festivities continued.....
