We just got back from a family vacation to Puerto Rico. It was great to get away. We stayed at the Ritz, which had a big pool that was perfect for the kids and then we could just walk out onto the beach when we needed a change of scenery. The weather was ideal for being outside all day, although no matter how much sunscreen I used the kids were a touch pink every night. The meals at the hotel were delicious, but much slower than what we are used to- try keeping a baby and two preschoolers entertained for an hour and a half waiting for food- not fun. One lunch took so long Olivia fell asleep in my arms at the table waiting so I transferred her to the stroller where she then slept an hour before our food came :( William was tough to handle, he wanted to get down and crawl everywhere, which is not reasonable when out in a resort. And he doesn't like swimming. He loved the beach, digging and building, he even tried a mouth full of sand, only once though. Our last night in PR Chase woke up crying that his ear hurt, poor buddy got swimmers ear. Overall, it was a great trip. We really enjoyed just playing outside with the kids all day at a beautiful resort in a beautiful country.
Our trip to Puerto Rico included attending a very special wedding. Randy and Jeannie decided to get married in PR. Jeannie looked absolutely gorgeous- Olivia was a beautiful flower girl and Chase was the ring bearer. They were so excited to be part of the big event. Chase made a point of telling everyone he carried the rings when we got home. The wedding was on the roof top of a very nice hotel on the beach. They had a sweet little ceremony and then a delicious dinner. It was beautiful.
