We are back in the USA. . . again!

Just three months after leaving the USA, 

we're back! 

Conor has the opportunity to work for a bit and we knew he would be way too lonely without us! 

Three Happy Little Travelers

pre flight donut going well

We took a small plane to Costa Rica this time instead of our usual stop over in Panama City.  The plane was much smaller than we thought it would be.  But it was awesome! The kids thought it was amazing!  We are pretty sure this is the only way to travel back to the USA from now on.  Costa Rica is gorgeous and amazingly clean.  The hotel was super nice and the people of Costa Rica are incredibly friendly and helpful.  It was such a lovely travel stop.  

here's Tohi directly behind the pilot! 

The following day we were catching an afternoon flight to the USA, Tohi was dressed, bag packed, and ready to go by 8am! 

Hello Orlando!

Donna surprised the kids with tickets to LegoLand! Oma, Jer, Ama, and Merek all met us in Orlando and we went to the park the following day.  It was a blast! Welcome to the USA! 

Jerren's face is hysterical in these pictures

Conor and Tohi are having a blast!

these riders. . . not so much. haha!

Brave Oma went on a ride with all her grandkids.  The kids were all smiles and giggles while Oma tried to keep it together! 

This ride had the parents laughing so hard.  It's just for the little kids and they actually have to drive the cars around a circle.  Merek was a star: stayed in his lane, never crashed, kept the flow of traffic going.   Frances ran into everything and the amazingly patient attendant kept having to straighten her out and Tohi drove like rules do not apply to her:  purposely swerving all over the rode, hitting the walls and other drivers.  Everything was at a hilariously slow speed so everyone was safe and the parents had a good laugh.

The sisters dove into the toy chest while Elwood was outside practicing with his bow and arrow.
