We are back from vacation, and we all had a great time. Thade behaved surprisingly well, and he loved staying in a hotel. The hotel we stayed at had a waffle bar, and Thade was happy that they had toast. We got to do some sightseeing, and visited the zoo. James and Thade got to feed a giraffe, it was so amazing. We toured one of my favorite caves, and got in a little shopping too. I had plenty of Starbucks, and we got to see one of my favorite racers stock car. It was a great trip, and I think that we are going to plan a few more. We got in some great family time, and we all got to relax a little too.
