After Orlando, we headed to Lazy Days Resort for almost a month!!!! We were able to focus on our school work and start the year strong! While in the Tampa area, we were able to experience some new adventures. Here are some of the highlights of our month in Tampa...
 |
| Bryan and I started each morning with a long walk around the campground... |
 |
| Family Fun Night Fridays...This is where it all started! |
 |
| This is such a great memory! The clubhouse was filled with games/toys and the boys started building...As you can see, the boys are tickled with themselves!!! |
 |
| This was a true, genuine "rolling on the floor laughing" moment!!! |
 |
| We joined a great homeschool group in the area...The Tampa Heat! |
 |
| First activity with The Heat...BOING, a trampoline park |
 |
| The boys had a blast jumping at BOING and they made a few new friends! |
 |
| We made good use of the Fitness Center. The boys are both doing an online PE class through Florida Virtual School and part of the class requirement is daily cardio! |
 |
| Braden getting his cardio in for the day |
 |
| Aaron enjoyed weight training |
 |
| Healthy eating! |
 |
| Braden started his online Diver's Ed class through FLVS |

 |
| We discovered a Barnes and Noble bookstore not too far from the campground :-) Aaron and I LOVE this place!!! |
 |
| We went to TopGolf as often as possible!!! |
 |
| Ahhhhhhhhhh |
 |
| Some of our friends were in the Orlando area, so we made the trip back to our favorite SkyZone to jump with friends one afternoon! |
 |
| The Redskins were playing a Pre-Season football game in Tampa and we were lucky enough to score tickets! |
 |
| Even a hurricane couldn't dampen our spirits! |
 |
| Our family...at a football game...in a hurricane! |

 |
| Braden working on his Driver's Ed class online...this was one of the group components of the class...he was just doing a crossword waiting for the class to begin! |
 |
| A unique opportunity to tour the Florida Aquarium and go on a Behind The Scenes Tour with the Tampa Heat! |
 |
| We were able to see how they care for the animals and how the tanks work and how they are maintained! |
 |
| Braden's happy place! |
 |
| We were able to see the animals daily diet being prepared |
