Getting Away ...

We, along with my sister and her family, went on a little getaway. The kids had an absolute ball! Of course there were a few 'moments' as there always are ...
I am WAY too ashamed to share our lunch plans ... let's just say NF has gone WAY more commercial than I realized!

Here's our sightseeing photos ... taken after paying $14 to park, a 10 minute walk (through some shops no less!) and after scarfing down a couple of sandwiches amid a tonne of seagulls ... we ARE still smiling!

Kind of ...


Here's Cadence about 20 minutes later all set to hit the water park. We wasted no time ... every second counted!

Well, every second/minute except for the 20 minutes where we were kind of starting to evacuate the water park area during a fire alarm!
Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the girls actually on the slides or hitting the waves. With all the little monkeys dropping buckets full of water, taking the camera inside didn't seem like a very good idea.

Dinner time was fairly relaxing ....

More so 'cause Daddy had one of these ... size ... XL!

Storytime was to be the end of the fun for the night ... then off to sleep ... surely they would crash:

Unfortunately that was not quite the case ... the moms didn't get DH uninterupted as planned. Oh well, the weekend wasn't about us anyway ... was it?
Looking forward to a return trip ... with a waterproof camera and a few other 'tricks' up our sleeves. And now, back to work ... 8 weeks left ....
