Vacation 2010 - Day 5

Well, I was right. Fishing is on tap this morning! Grant, Shelby & John headed down to check out how the fish were biting! I started making breakfast for the younger boys. After their tummies were full, the other crew came in and ate. Paw Paw came over and they all headed down to fish. Over the course of the morning, they caught over 15 fish. John cleaned two of them and plans to cook them another day.

Can you tell that Jack LOVES pancakes?

Michael likes them some times!

Jack caught 6 or 7 fish this morning! Can you tell how happy he is?

Paw Paw helping with the kidos!

The kids are a little tired of swimming today! We planned to take them to lunch one day, so this seemed to be a great day! We had wanted to take them to a fun place that they would enjoy, so John picked Lambert's Cafe.
Paw Paw and Jen Jen went with us! It was a hit!
We ALL had left overs and hardly anyone ate dinner!

Grant, Jen Jen & Shelby - look at those cups!
I don't think Lambert's knows the word - moderation!
Mommy & Michael
Michael was scared at first and didn't want to go in this place. He kept hearing Paw Paw talk about getting hit with a roll, and he wanted nothing to do with that! Amazingly, that boy ate some rolls!!!!
Daddy, Jack and Michael ... more rolls!

Shelby, that roll is TOO big!

Grant, Jen Jen and our roll "thrower"!

Picture time!

John asked Grant, "So, is this the long black train?"

We had also set aside a little spending money for each child. So, stopped by a couple of souvenir shops and let the kids spend some of their money. Paw Paw and Jen Jen were good sports!


Souvenir Shop! Can you tell we are tourists?

Today's sunset!
Paw Paw, Jen Jen and Aunt Paige had invited the kids to come to their place to spend the night tonight. We decided to take them up on their offer. We dropped all of them off at their condo, the Phoenix East II. John, Shelby and I came back to our condo, Caribe, and packed them an overnight bag. I was ready to prop up and rest! :)

Swimming at Paw Paw's condo.

Michael - are we having fun yet?

Two cookies? I will have to talk to Aunt Paige about that!
After I rested, John and I headed over to my parent's condo to take the kids crab hunting. They had been swimming for a little while and some had eaten a little dinner. We headed out and found a couple of crabs. The kids were thrilled. Michael had bought a light saber with his money this afternoon, so that was pretty fun on the beach at night!

The first one was small, but this one was HUGE!

Michael's light saber on the beach!

Paw Paw & Michael fighting - Star Wars style!

Shelby went to cuddle with Michael before bed!

We took the kids up and helped them get settled in bed, then we headed out.
John and I went to get a fruity beach beverage and ended up playing some Galaga and Ms. PacMan! That brought back some memories!

We came back to our combo to some peace and quiet! Very much appreciated!
Thanks Paw Paw, Jen Jen and Aunt Paige! Hope you rest well!
