The kids had a 2 week long semester break. Lucy's birthday occupied the 1st week, which was super fun, but we also wanted to add a little family getaway while we had the chance. We talked about visiting parts of Jeremy's mission, or hiking at a volcano...for some reason it all seemed like so much effort! Instead we finally settled on the most amazing hotel I've ever been to, which just happens to be a one hour drive away. It's called the Shangri-La. Yes, I am posting a lot of pictures of this place because we LOVED every second of it!!!!! Here we go: This is the sailboat we went for a ride on. I couldn't take a picture of us actually on it because there was nowhere to put a camera! Plus, our waterproof camera's memory card was full :( The highlights: *We swam (it had both a kiddie pool for Sam, 2 large pools including a waterslide for the older 2, and the ocean which was absolutely beautiful and warm!! * a really fun play area with huge slides (one the girls actually had to wear a helmet to go on and Sami was too little for it) *We rode ocean kayaks out to a dock and fed the fish. SO FUN!!! *We went on a sailboat which was awesome, too! Sami fell asleep about halfway through after she requested we go FASTER! :) *We fed the fish right along the shore. The fish were EVERYWHERE. We just watched them jump out of the water all around us. Sami didn't love that part, but the rest of us did. If they got too close to Lucy she would just throw sand on them! *The food was delicious, the room very comfortable, and the TV big. Oh, and of course we ALL loved the luxury of a bathtub!!!!!! *It had a nice pool table/ping pong room. Gracie did great with ping pong! I'm sure she would have done great with pool too, but we didn't try that :) *We played badminton on nice soft grass with a net! Awesome! *There were big, nice hammocks to relax on complete with grass and shade. *The workers brought out free samples of fruit kabobs and juice several times. YUM This is one 5 star hotel that deserves all 5 stars in my book! It was SO fun to spend that time with our family. The fun playroom slide:
I didn't recognize Lucy on the slide until I saw her close up with her blond hair! haha And Sami and Grace were so cute, too. Man, you guys are having too much fun! :) That looks like a lot of fun!
P.S. I'm excited for you to come back in five days!
