Staycation

So my husband and I tossed the idea of going to Orlando overnight for a getaway with our two young children during his week off for x-mas break and decided there are so many local things to do here, we'd have a staycation.  The only rule was we had to actually do things and not just stay home all week:) On day one I made nachos for dinner and we watched a x-mas movie although I cannot remember which one it was a cartoon dog related one on Netflix, very short and cute for young viewers.  Day 2 was a day of vegging around the house and having leisurely meals and lots of fun truely just enjoying our home and children, Day 3 was an adventure to the Marine Science Center in Port Orange where our daughter got to pet stingrays and see seahorses and turtles in tanks it's an amazing place, I've been once before with grandpa but this was the first time the whole family went.  Onto day 4 (today), started with a yummy breakfast of pancakes and eggs made by my hubby then he gave me a few hours break because I have a little cold and took our toddler to the park.  This afternoon he went kayaking and I watched tv shows I never watch, drank hot tea and truely enjoyed "just being"…ahhhhh maybe if the kids always napped I could learn how to staycation everyday!  A girl can dream:)
