My parents rented a condo down in Mesquite over Easter weekend and they were nice enough to invite us to come! I'm not sure that it made for the best vacation for them, but we had a blast!
Its a 5 hour drive, I was so nervous for Lydia to be in the car that long, but she was amazing! She was awake the entire ride and just as happy as can be! We made it about 20 minutes before Mae on the other hand was asking "how much farther?" Oh boy! But she did great too!
We went swimming every day which was a blast! Mae would beg and beg all day to go, then we'd get back to the condo after and I would tell her that she needed to shower and her reply was "I didn't even want to go swimming so I don't have to shower!" Wow she is a firecracker!
Lydia absolutely loved the water! She was smiling, giggling, screaming and kicking! It was so cute!
It was a super relaxing trip, we swam and ate and relaxed, saw Rio and went bowling. It was so nice to get away and do something different.
Mae keeps asking me why we can't go back to the place with the pool and live there. I keep wondering why not myself! I would love to live somewhere that stayed that warm. It was amazingly uplifting to get some sunshine!
Ahh don't you just want to pinch those cheeks?
A few days before Easter curious Mae happened upon the Easter Bunnies stash of goodies. I thought Easter was sure to be a bust after that! But he still came and left all the goodies hidden around the condo, and she was still just as enthusiastic about even though she had already seen everything. And surprisingly she didn't really question it either. My mom got the girls these cute matching little rompers for Easter and I thought they were the perfect Easter day outfit!
We packed up that day and went to Easter lunch with my family before making the journey home.
It was so much fun to get to spend time as a family, and hang out with my family again. Its been a long time since we've been on a vacation together!
