Staycation Day One

Marriage is all about compromise. In keeping with that premise we had our first (annual?) Staycation. Think "We can have just as much sitting in the dark eating peanut butter sandwiches!" and "Vacations should be the most exciting time of your life!"
Day One saw us at Nashville Shores (Eric)...
...eating a frugal picnic lunch outside the park (me!)... ...giving Elijah his first Twizzler (saved from a work function - Eric & Lydia)...
...enjoying some Dippin' Dots (Eric)...[Here Elijah is telling me that they are COLD!]...
...[Haven's darling little tutu hiney got a quick nap in before she was thrown back in the water.]...
...eating Hush Puppies at Uncle Bud's catfish (me - we had a great coupon!; Eric & Lydia - shared our plates with hungry Elijah)...
...eating ice cream (me - coupon again!) and splashing in the water fountains.
We do apologize for the low-riding shorts Elijah is sporting. Sometimes you just don't know if something fits until after your child wears it (or is that just me?).
Stay tuned to see how we continued to use coupons during the rest of our Staycation~:-)

Clever girl. You can do more things if you coupon.
By the way, Haven is so cute whether awake or asleep.
