These 2 have kept us moving every waking moment, and they're moving into a phase of life that's so exciting...listening to Cade scream with giddiness about winning 50 tickets at the arcade, and watching Lyla glide across the deep end by herself are things that make this trip so different from vacations past. Our babies are becoming real people, capable of enjoying so many different things. It's not sad, either, it actually makes me giddy with excitement.
We spent the morning at the "quiet pool", where Cade happily met up with his Alabama friend. They love playing police and jumping into the pool together, and they're particular fascinated with the shower/hose next to the pool. Of course.
We took a break from the pool this afternoon to have one more round at Fat Daddy's arcade. The arcade has been a big hit this trip, not necessarily for the video games but to win tickets - as many as possible. Cade doesn't even care if he plays the games himself - if Lance can play more effectively, he's just as excited.
So, we ended up with these - a little over 1000 tickets. The kids had a shopping spree in Fat Daddy's toy store, and they were never so happy to get their hands on slime and plastic worms.
I managed to get everyone out on the Beach after dinner, which was a bit of a debacle. First of all, it was way too early and the sun was too bright. We needed to finish, though, because we wanted the kids to have as much time as possible to swim before bed.
Secondly, our camera lense was foggy due to the drastic temp difference between the inside and outside. Lance handled this very well - I was pleasantly surprised with he pulled out a microfiber cloth to wipe the lense instead of throwing his hands up in the air proclaiming that our camera was "broken".
We didn't get anything great, but we got something, and that was all I cared about.
I love these people, squinty sun eyes and all. Beautiful...inside and out.
Our evening swim was, again, perfect, and all that really mattered.
