Dana Point Vacation

I probably should just do a vlog of our trip since it's probably alot to type but I'd rather type right now. Our vacation was lots of fun, and also a little stressful. The first couple days all 3 of our kids were fighting colds, Maddox more than the other 2. The first night was rough we got Maddox a port a crib thing from the resort and it was really hard so he slept terrible plus he had a fever. The next morning Kurt & I were very sleep deprived and a little feisty. We went on this vacation with Kurts Mom and sister Eliana, so we met up with them in the morning in the game room. Kurts Mom made some yummy breakfast and we all played pool or ping pong for a while. Emmitt loved playing pool with Grandma and Maddox had a fun time smashing the ping pong paddles around. The majority of our vacation we spent either at the pool or at the beach, or even in the room letting Maddox catch up on sleep. Kurt and I didn't get to do a whole lot of activities together which is to be expected when you have a baby who needs to nap. The ones we did do were the most fun though, like running along the beach and playing ping pong together. One morning Lark was nice enough to watch the kids while Kurt and I went for a run it was really nice to be together and look out at the beautiful water. After our run we took our shoes and sock off and walked along the sand it felt like a foot massage and the cool water felt great on our toes. We went to dinner one of the evenings with both of Kurts parents- his Dad was able to make it down for a night to hang out. We ate at this yummy restaurant called Kings Fish House, they have this macadamia crusted halibut with orange ginger sauce that is so darn good. There's so much little detail I could go into but it would take forever and the pictures I'm sure speak for themselves, so let's just say our vacation was so wonderful filled with sand, sun, food, and relaxation. The best part was having Kurt all to myself with no distraction from work at all.

this is how our vacation looked for a couple days, lol- poor pitiful sickie.

Emmitt playing pool like a pro

I was taking pictures of how cute Maddox was asleep and realized he and Kurt are in the same exact position, I did not prop Maddox that way nor did Kurt. ha ha.

On our run together

Good 4 mile bonding time

Checking out the waves

Little stud walking to the pool

Ah shoot this was so funny, so Lark and I are in the adult jacuzzi which was REALLY hot, and Kurt wanted to take a picture and every picture I could not for the life of me focus and look up at him, the steam was burning my eyes and I kept making this popeye face. So then we were laughing our heads off cause I kept making this funny face. In order to take a normal picture we had to move to the other side of the spa where the jets weren't working as well so there wasn't as much steam.

Ahhh much better..

A swingset on the beach, what could be better?

3,2,1 blast off

In the cool of the pool

While we were all changing after a long adventure at the pool, Maddox passed out just like this standing up! Resting his head on the living room chair standing in between the chair and the couch pull out bed. I'd say he's tired.

The monster burrito I brought Kurt back from this mexican place called Carmelitas. Who will win Man or Burrito?

It's a no contest, Man wins! And now he's good for the next 3 days...ha ha

Elianas little friend gave these cute shades to Alaina

Happy Summering!
