On our last full day of vacation, we spent most of the day at the pool. It was a very exciting day … Tycen learned to swim across the length of the pool all by himself!! This video was about the 6th or 7th time he swam across so he was pretty tired, but about half way through he started doing overhead (freestyle) strokes again. Way to go, buddy! We're SO proud of you!! (I think Shay could've swam across the pool too, but she was a little more nervous about the idea…soon enough ;)
Pool fun!!
In the afternoon, we headed over to Downtown Disney. We had such a fun time browsing through stores:
The Lego store was awesome; you could build a car and race it on a little race track against other cars, the kids loved this!!
We ate dinner at The Rainforest Cafe, such a fun place!
Aunt Mar made the very long drive after work (in L.A. rush hour traffic) so she could come spend some more time with us. Thanks so much, Marsie! We loved spending all the time with you we could get!!
I just adore my family!! We are so blessed. This was the perfect ending to a wonderful family vacation that I will never forget!
Heading home: we left Anaheim early to catch our afternoon flight out of Los Angeles.
I know I've said this several times already, but I just get so happy looking at all these photos and reminiscing about our trip…We had the BEST time :) We absolutely loved the fact that we got to see so many of my family members in L.A., San Diego and Anaheim! We will forever cherish the memories we've made with you all and especially Grandma Jan, joining us for most of our trip -- we love and appreciate you so much!
And to our big 5 year-olds, we couldn't think of a better reason to take a very special trip and celebrate other than your amazing birthday… one of the very best days of our lives. You have brought us so much joy, there are simply no words to express our love for you. We pray that the Lord would bless you abundantly with a life filled with love and passion for Jesus Christ and all of His creation. We love you!! Xoxoxoxo
