A Weekend of Fun in the Sun

So . . . it has only taken me almost an entire week to post this, better late than never, right ;) Last weekend, our family headed out to Palm Springs for a nice quick little get away. The boys had some golfing planned and us girls had fun at the pool and hanging with the little ones. I absolutely love how children can turn anything into a wonderful adventure. When we first got there we all got suited up and headed to the pool for hours of fun.

It is amazing to see the progress that both Alyssa and Drew have made in the water over the summer. Alyssa is quite a good swimmer, using all of her body to get her through to where she wants to go. Drew is also very confident in the water, but he has no fear, which gives me a fair amount of fear :) . Then we all went out for dinner and a quick dessert run, which was so fun (ice cream sundaes anyone).

The next morning, as the kids and I woke up, they had been dying to test the "bounciness of the beds", I couldn't resist. So within a matter of minutes there were children flying through the air and uncontrollable laughter abound. Then we got a call from across the hall that there were ducks outside, so we gathered up and went out and fed the ducks, which as you can tell was great fun.

As we were finishing up with the ducks, the boys called to let us know that they were at the last hole, which was right outside our rooms. The kids made a quick move to find their daddy, papa, and uncles and "play golf".
