Spring Break

Two weeks seems like a long break from school but I can tell you it's not.  Our time off from school has been busy and I'm sad that our days are numbered.  We haven't had a chance to do all we wanted to do or see everyone we wanted to see.  We did squeeze in an impromptu Mexico trip at the last minute that was SO much fun.  We decided last Wednesday that we were going to join my parents in Rocky Point for a long weekend.  It's hard for us to get away from work but we managed to get away for 4 days.  The weather was great on Friday and Saturday but a storm rolled in Saturday night and it felt like a hurricane.  We bundled up, put the kids to bed, and watched a movie.  Sunday was cooler, but really nice.  The kids have so much fun playing on the beach & the grassy area right outside the condo.  We get our hair braided, eat mangos, & keep the beach vendors in business buying waaaay too much stuff we don't need.  It's such a great time.

Here's Cory on the drive down.  He loves when I snap photos while he's driving :)

 It's a given that we'll get our hair braided while we're there.  I usually haggle with the lady and try to knock $5 off the price but then I realize that she really has her work cut out for her with Reese & Ryan's crazy thick hair.

 Reese was waiting patiently while Ryan was getting her hair braided.  I love her hair in this photo.

We always get really excited to see the Mango guy.  He peels them and puts them on sticks. It's like eating a huge delicious mango popsicle.  We all love eating them.  They are such a juicy treat.

 Ryder boy got a new hat and it looked so cute on him.  He wouldn't take it off.  He loved the car on the front of it.  I loved that he kept a hat on while at the beach.

 Uncle Mike brought Jess & Will down on Saturday.  I think Jess was scared for her life because he's a speedy (but safe) driver.  They arrived in 3 hours, 15 minutes.  Pretty sure that's a record time.

Will is the sweetest kid.  He and Ryder have so much fun playing together.

 Ryder wouldn't go anywhere without his cars in each hand.

 The beach was so pretty but it was windy on Sunday.  I love this view.

 We were bundled up pretty good.

We were practicing some cheerleading moves like cartwheels, round offs, & toe touches.  There is a huge grassy area in front of their condo and it's our favorite place to play.

 More dancing and jumping.

 We could do this all day long.
