We planned a staycation this year to save some money, and to do some of those things around home that we say we want to do but never actually do. We had expected it to be several single days scattered throughout the summer, but it turned out that we were able to take a whole consecutive week!
Very conveniently, a B-25 bomber was visiting the week we were staycationing. We spent a very enjoyable morning at the airport with this beauty.
Nora has never been on Trax before (it's hard to believe it's been 4 years since we last rode the train!). She absolutely loved it. On the trip back, we were in the first car, and Zeke spent the whole trip looking through the window to the cab so he could watch out the windshield like the driver.
They were checking tickets at one of the stops, and the kids got police badge stickers. They are showing them off in most of the pictures we have from our train ride.
We spent another day at the Hill Air Force Base museum. This is another place that we love but haven't visited since Nora was a baby.
We fit in lots of playground time too.
We tried to go flying on Flag Day, but it was super windy and cold. The only thing we flew was the flag! Still fun though.
It was so great to just be together for a whole week with a lot of free time to do what we wanted instead of our normal daily routine of trying to fit everything in. I took a whole bunch of pictures and we did a lot of playing. It was wonderful.
