Extended Vacation in Orlando

Soooo....here is the big drama that has kept me from blogging... It's a bit embarrassing, but I guess it's just a part of living near water and in Florida. We went on a 10 day vacation to North Carolina. We of course, left the house very clean and all wiped down, etc so it would be nice to come home. Well, it was not very nice when we got home. Turns out that we had a little visitor during the time we were gone. A rat. Yes, gross, a rat. It was a mess. Most of our food in the pantry had to be thrown out and of course because of the sanitary concerns, we just could not stay there with the kids. So off to my mom's we went. It took us 10 days to catch that little bugger and another 2 weeks to be sure that was it before we were able to go back. Then EVERYTHING - every dish, cup, toy, surface, floor, etc had to be cleaned. So it took a lot of work to even get to the point where we could come home. Finally, we got back in the house the day before Halloween. The boys just felt like they were on a long vacation I think - they had a ball playing with Lita all day, I loved getting naps every afternoon and Nana and Papa had fun seeing us every weekend. But we are just so glad to be back home!

Here are some pictures of the boys having fun during the month we lived at my Mama's.
