Poolside Fun

It was 73 degrees and sunny today! We started the morning out really lazy. We made scrambled eggs with toast and sat around in our pj's for quite a while. Then we got motivated and did a little laundry. It had gotten to that time of the week for us to tackle a few stains. We're so blessed to have a laundry room right in our villa. Then after a little more grocery shopping and some lunch, we put Grace and Nana down for naps and headed out to the pool! It was so much fun! We played and splashed and Abby made new friends. I was even able to sit in a poolside chair and read a book. Ahhh....another great day! After the pool we headed out to Don Pablos for dinner. It's a great Mexican restaurant. Don't you love this pose of Grace with her hands behind her head? It's like she's reminding me that she's here in Florida to relax. :)
Here's my swimmer! She stayed in the water for over two and a half hours. I think she might have turned into a dolphin or a mermaid.

This is a picture of our pool side area. It was huge. There was a sand box play area in the middle of those bushes and a restaurant under the green roof. This is also only half of the pool area. I couldn't fit all of it in my camera.
Here's another section of the pool. This is the section we hung out in because it had the water slide. Abby went down it with me first and then tried it on her own. It was such a fun slide!!! We went on it again and again. It was quite fast and dumped you right into the water.
There was also a shallow pool for the kids. Abby made quite a few friends and spent the last hour playing with them. She walked right up to them and said, "Hi, my name is Abby and I'm five." It worked because they all hugged each other when we had to leave.
Dare I say that there's a little sunburn on me? We're waiting for our shuttle bus to take us back to the villa.
On the way out for dinner I saw a cute bench and quickly grabbed this photo of the girls. Don't they look so happy? Family and vacation does that.
