Spring Break 2014

We weren't going anywhere exciting this year for Spring Break so we tried to make it fun in Omaha.  Luckily we had some nice weather some of the time so we had a lot of park time.  We went to the zoo on Monday, we went to CoCo Keys with the Riklis on Tuesday, we went to the park on Wednesday,  the Mall with the Roblyers on Thursday and then on the last Monday we went again to CoCo Keys but this time just with our family (we had some groupons to burn).
The bottom right picture is the elaborate teepee the kids made in the small "forest" by the park that we spent many hours at.  They had quite a blast building it and others like it.

 Above: Here they are at CoCo Keys the first time with their friends Adrianna, Meredith and Sam.  Brayden didnt opt in to this trip.  Emmitt had a blast on this trip because the lifeguard on the bigger waterslides was a bit more "relaxed" than others and he let Emmitt go on the slides he usually isnt big enough for.  He LOVED them and did it over and over and over- which is good he got his fill because when we went back just a few days later they wouldnt let him on :/

Below:  Here is our second trip to CoCo Keys as a family (minus dad).  We stayed 5 hours so its no surprise Emmitt was asleep seconds after our drive home began.   



And on to the mall:

 On the day we went to the mall, the big boys roamed while the moms stayed a the play place with the rest of the crew.  I think Brayden enjoyed his independence.  When it was time to eat though we had the big boys take along their little brothers.  They loved this and wouldn't even let us sit with them at the food court.  Too cool for school.

All in all, a successful staycation. (not as fun as DisneyWorld but we did our best)
