Fairmont Hot Springs

We were able to spend a GREAT Spring break with Grandma and Papa Wilson at the Fairmont Hot Springs. We spent Sunday through Thursday on vacation and had a wonderful time. James and I were able to spend time alone, something we haven't been able to do in a while and the kids LOVED spending time with Grandma and Papa. From swimming to playing in the park, to eating out and Bowling this was one of those family vacations that will go down in the recod books as 'The one to top',

The posts are a little out of order, but I hope you enjoy them.

New Bikes

Leah and Elijah both recently recieved new BIG Bikes, as they like to call them!! Leah is great at riding hers already, but Elijah is having a bit of trouble getting the hang of it. He wants to learn so bad, and I am sure will be having no trouble at all after a couple more days of practicing!

 

Playing at the Park in Fairmont

The kids ran G+G off their feet and spent the majority of their time at the park. You can see that even Grandma enjoyed herself quite a bit!!!

 

 

 

 

Caidys Birthday

Caidy had more fun with her balloons than anything else on her Birthday!
She didn't really know what to think about her cupcakes, until she realized she could lick her fingers, than there was no stopping her and she was pretty mad at her siblings when I had them get close for a picture!!!

 

 

 

 

Hiking at Hot Springs

We had great weather all week and took advantage by taking a little hike to the hot springs. I tried to get a photo op going, but the kids weren't too thrilled, so these were the best of the pictures!

 

Random Caidy Pictures

Caidy was a great girl all weekend. We did have a little trouble with her ears though. On the way to Fairmont, we think from the preasure of driving through the mountains, one of her tubes fell out. Then for the rest of the week they were draining. I am giving the ENT a call tomorrow because although there is alot of fluid she apears to be in NO pain at all, and it is not affecting anything she does. I will post a update after we either talk to the dr or go in, whichever they want us to do.

 

 

 

Swimming

One of the favorite activities of the week was swimming, Leah could have been in the pool for the whole week if we would have let her!! She enjoyed getting personal swimming lessons from Grandma and they were there a good couple hours a day!

Caidy wasn't too sure what to think, she loved her bathing suit, posed in the living room, but didn't really like the unsafe feeling of the water. She held on tight and we only stayed in for a couple minutes.

Elijah, a little more like Caidy and his dad, went in the pool to feel the water and wanted out to go back to the park!!! Him and James never went swimming again, actually James didn't at all!! What can you do!!

 

 

 

 

Leah wanted goggles so bad. She wore them more out of the water than in them!!

Bowling

The highlight, in my mind, of the vacation was bowling!! (look down to the score to know why!!!) We went spontaniously and got the last available lane and ended up having a BLAST. The kids knew all about it from playing the Wii, and were very ready to jump in. We had a great time laughing and letting our competative sides run wild as we all faught for the win!!

 

 

 

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAIDY!

Its hard to believe she is one already!!

Unfortunatley due to naps and daddys' work schedule we will be doing cake and gifts tomorrow. I will post pictures as soon as I can!!
