Great Ending

I forgot something - before we went to the beach on Saturday we sat out back and took some cute pictures, mostly because the sun had finally come out and the grass, flowers, trees and sky were so colorful - we really had no choice.



The pictures were nice, we were all in a good happy mood! Ok back to where we left off - Saturday afternoon, Summer had just started her nap.

2 hours later, while Summer was napping our friends showed up to play, Tina & Aubrey and Lauren, Thomas & Josiah. I walked to meet them and we came back to the room where I had to wake Summer. All the kids went out back and saw the bunnies and played in the grass for a while. Then we suited up and headed to the pool. The water was nice and warm, well to everyone except me ... I thought it was cold and I was freezing. Summer and everyone else enjoyed it, the Montage has a nice pool for babies, it is only 1.5 foot deep and the water is salty, not filled with chlorine, so it was nice and different. We spent over an hour at the pool and were starting to get hungry so we headed back to the room to get dressed. Before we went across the street to find food we decided to take the kids out to this grassy spot and let them run around so we could get some pictures. Apparently someone else was going to use the grassy area to play but our kids still had room to run around for a while and we did get a few pictures.


Right near this grassy spot was a nice bench that overlooked the ocean where we snuck in a few more pictures. Can you see Summer's eyes, she either had a rash from where she kept rubbing her eyes earlier at the beach or she had a little bit of sun burn, or maybe both, her eyes were all red but she was still so cute!


After the picture taking was over we went to find food. We found a nice Asian place across the street called Asian Fusion, the prices were good, the food was good, the conversation was excellent. After dinner our friends left and we took some leftovers to daddy, who was back in the room raiding. I took Summer out to the fire pit one last time to enjoy the night air. It was so dark and warm outside and the fire was relaxing. We didn't stay out long, just long enough to get chilled so back inside we went where I decided we should take a bath and light some candles. The bathtub was so deep and Summer had a fun time with me. I let her stay in after I got out and snapped a few cute pictures because she looked so little in such a big tub.



After the bath it was around 9:00 and Summer was ready for bed, I think it took her a whole 5 minutes to sing herself to sleep. I followed quickly after her.

On Sunday we were awake by 7:15 and had packed and were on our way by 8:00. We had fruit and water for breakfast and 20 minutes into our drive home Summer puked all over herself. She didn't seem or act sick and was fine after so either the fruit didn't settle right or the bumpy California roads caused something to shake around and come back up. We pulled over and cleaned everything off as best we could and headed back to Las Vegas. Around 11:30 we were about an hour from home when Summer announced that she was hungry so we stopped at McDonalds but ended up having to wait over an hour to order and get our food, apparently we stopped when everyone else did and they had a huge rush. It was very annoying but we finally got some food and headed home, arriving around 1:00. We unpacked everything right away and started laundry, it seemed like all of our clothes were covered in beach sand.

Summer and I took another late afternoon nap and woke up feeling refreshed and ready to face the new week. It was an amazing vacation, we we can't wait to do it again real soon.
