Photo a Day 2015 Weeks 8 and 9

 Day 51  Grandma is here!!!  So thankful for my mom who watched the kids for the week!

 Day 52  Family hug before we depart.  It was so funny before we left I was hugging the kids and I told them that I was going to cry.  Elsa demanded "Cry mom!  I want to see tears!"

 Day 53 At our Casita Swim up pool

Day 54 Aaron and I lounging in one of the beach front cabanas

 
Day 55  Aaron and Ben went golfing and Lisa and I hung out.  Love this girl!

 Day 56:  We went to Xel-Ha!  These three went snorkeling and I hung out in a shaded chair because I got SO sun burned the day prior!  That was despite 30 spf!

 Day 57  Most. Relaxing. Massage. Ever.  I normally do not like the relaxing massage type but rather I prefer deep tissue.  But a massage over top of the water, listening to the waves, and sharing it with Aaron….would take that kind any day!

 Day 58  Our last full day.  I read TWO books on the trip!  But man, oh man, did I miss the kids!!

Day 60  We met some fabulous couples in our casitas section!  Even though these two were patriot fans….We miss you guys!

 Day 60  Some final snuggle time with Grandma before she leaves tomorrow.

Day 61  Apparently I should not go through mail and school work on three hours of sleep.  We got home Sunday at 3am and the kids were up at 6am.  In my sleep deprived state, I tried to go through the paperwork but obviously didn't pay attention…I got an email from Elsa's teacher stating she didn't turn in her math test.  Well, I found it….in the recycling bin…with nasty stuff on it.  I returned it in a ziploc that I then disinfected with a wipe.  Mrs. LeCaptain gave me an A just for the effort!

Day 62  Helping dad shovel the driveway.

Day 63 It was cute the morning we returned, my mom had gotten up with the kids to allow us to go back to sleep.  Elsa kept sliding notes under our door.

 Day 29:  A few days ago, Elsa was being chased by a boy in her class and tripped and hit her face on the corner of a desk.

 Day 30:  At school They had mini-course day and Elsa painted this canvas.  She is quite the artist.  Complete with black eye!
