After swimming all morning we came back to our cabin for lunch. Peaches had been super whiny all day and acting like she didnt' feel great so I had her lay down. She ended up taking a three hour nap!
The big girls and I played cards, read, and watch a little TV while we waited for them to wake up.
Daddy got done with his meetings shortly after they woke up and Boo and Peanut had been asking to do a little shopping so he stayed with the little ones (who were both melting down after their day in the sun and long naps) so we could sneak out for a bit.
There are so many gorgeous flowers all over the place!
We were only able to shop for about half an hour but we had fun and I bought the girls specialty truffles. Peanut got birthday cake and Boo got mint chocolate. :)
Then we got to do something new...there was a dinner cruise available for the conferees and the "shuttle" was a limo! The girls were SO excited to get to ride in a limo for the first time!
And excited for the dinner cruise as well!
Peaches was not feeling good at all, but she hung with us and made it. They had a taco bar which was perfect for the kids as well as handmade pretzels and gigantic cookies.
After we ate we walked around and checked out all the views from the different decks.
The next morning we packed up all our things for check out and headed down for a couple more hours at the pool. Peaches was still feeling peaked but perked up when they found this huge monarch butterfly!
You can see how much she improved over the course of the three days...
And she actually started swimming for real! Hopefully we can get her swimming even more confidently the rest of the summer!
This was kind of cool...we saw a whole bunch of hang-gliders, and they just stayed there circling and drifting for over two hours before they finally moved off. T said he had heard about them and that they were going all the way past our town and back! Later on our drive home we saw three of them landing in a field...I guess they didn't make it all the way back? At that point they had been in the air for at least 6 hours!
Thankfully the little ones slept all the way home and we were able finish the rest of the day unpacking without too much post-vacation grumpiness, but they definitely went to bed early! Anything out of our normal routine seems to throw them off for a bit which makes me nervous for our big Texas trip coming up, but I'm still looking forward to it. We are so thankful that summer is finally here!!
