Today has been action packed. Timothy and Sariah were up bright and early, which of course meant the same for me. It always amazes me that Sam can sleep through Everything!!! We started the morning off with a two hour swim and the kids didn't want to leave, but we were meeting Nathan for lunch. We had lunch with Nathan, and then went back to the room for me to bills. It is really unfair when vacation lands on the first of the month. We then ventured off on 3 hour shopping trip, which the majority of the time was spent in Old Navy. The kids loved the escalators and the big bouncy ball machine in the store. Timothy was so good at entertaining the kids while I shopped, it pays to have a 12 year old. Timothy walked out with 6 new shirts, Sariah got a pink soccer ball, Sam got a blue bouncy ball and I got a purple cup and 3 shirts. We then hurried back to meet Nathan for dinner.
The plan was to go to my favorite place to go El Torito, much to my sadness they had closed. My wonderful husband saved the day and used On Star to locate another location that was not closed. In the process of tracking down the new location Sariah fell asleep, she slept until the last 10 minutes of our meal and woke up in a less than pretty mood. It is so amazing to me how girls moods can jump from happy to sad in a split of a second. The kids enjoyed watching Junior Jeopardy while eating. When we got back to the hotel Sam requested they we all go to the pool as a family. We played catch with a football and the proud Sariah showed her dad how she can jump into the pool on her own, it is now time to be scared when she is around water. We have now all settled down for the night, Nathan and Tim are sharing baseball stats while Sam and Sariah bounce off the walls. It sure is fun raising these kids, everyday is an adventure you never know what the next day will bring. The kids had another awesome day. It is amazing, you pull Tim and Sam away from the video games and they suddenly have nothing to fight about. Another end to another wonderful day!!!
