Well, today was slightly a bummer because of the weather. It was cool, very overcast and the water was freezing. So we went to the BEACH for a short time is all.
Because of Covid, they were only allowing a few people in the pools at a time so you had to stand in line early in the morning to get wrist bands for your family for certain time slots and you only got 1 1/2 hours in the pool. So Mikell and I stood in line and we got a pool time reserved. That ended up being such a fun time for the kiddo's (and Zach! Geesh he was so funny and entertaining on this trip!)
So we played games in the condo with the kids like HEADBANDZ and TWISTER and CHARADES and the kids had a blast. Plus I bought them each a book of the paint with water that they enjoyed playing with. I had forgotten that they do free crafts for the kids every day from 9;30-4:30 or we would have done that too. They also went scootering around and it ended up being a great day! We just didn't get much BEACH time in as we had hoped.
Here are some pics from the BEACH. I was so happy that Lytton blew up the FLOAT TUBE. I love relaxing on that thing.
This is my favorite crew right here, minus Skylee. Not sure if she napping during this. We also played at the PLAYGROUND:
Playing Games inside waiting for our turn at the POOL:
Oh man! I could hardly bend over and then I would put my head beneath my legs and look at the boys behind me and they would die laughing! This was so much fun but I think I pulled a muscle or two? LOL!
We were playing HEADBANDZ when Ashley used her new watermelon cutter to cut these big pieces of watermelon that the kids devoured.
Swimming was so much fun to watch...I took pics and videos and didn't really get in but for a few minutes because they just filled up this pool 2 days ago and I thought it was freezing!
I promised Zach I wouldn't put pics or video of him but can I tell you, he had us laughing so hard watching him do flips and all sorts of tricks off the diving board. This was my favorite part of the day. I was just so happy watching my family having a blast with each other. These are cherished moments for me for sure!
After we swam, we ate dinner and then had the BEST time outside playing CORN HOLE and the grassy area there is huge and it was so much fun playing lawn games! The kids and the adults had a blast!
These two little girls became fast friends!
This night was so pleasant and we all had fun playing games. I have to tell just one little story. So Grandma Shirley was playing with the little kids showing them how to play a ring toss game. She put a pool noodle down for them to stand behind. Well she forgot about it and tripped over it. I was playing a game and just happened to look back and there she was on the ground! I was like oh my gosh! What are you doing on the ground? Did you fall again? She started laughing so hard (Thank Goodness!) Her laugh is so funny and then I started laughing and we we stood their hugging each other laughing so hard. Mikell kept asking are they crying? or laughing? We were laughing! Dang! She could have broke a hip! But thank goodness she slowly and softly fell to the ground!
We all went to bed exhausted and happy!
