Spring Break 2017 Week 1

Spring Break!  We were fortunate enough to spend our first week in the sun, first in Puerto Rico with my in-laws, and then in Florida (just me and the kids). Lots of sunshine, beach, pool, french fries, chicken fingers, and sunscreen. Here are some pictures to recap our week! Enjoy (and thanks for letting me indulge).

 

Love the combination of beach and then pool. And of course, minutes soaking up the Vitamin D on the ground.

We stayed at Dorado Beach for the fourth straight year.  Good combo of kids activities and things for my in-laws to do.  Love the combination of beach and then pool. And of course, minutes soaking up the Vitamin D on the ground.

Our view for the three meals of delicious (and fried) food. I think I have eaten french fries every single day since Spring Break started #DetoxSpring2017

Nearby, there is a small (and a big) water park, that we liked to venture to. The zip line is particular fun (but I haven't gone on it since three years ago when I dropped my phone in the water).

Toosh loves to look for seashells -- and now we have quite the collection.

The kids are allowed Fruit Loops on vacation for dessert post breakfast. Best Mom award?

And after Puerto Rico, we said our goodbyes to my inlaws and husband, and we went to Florida. We had an incredibly low key and relaxing time with downtime, watching The Voice in bed, and lounging at pools, beaches, and swings.

 

And we ate a lot of ice cream -- here we come Summer!

We spent two days at the Bath and Tennis club which was great fun for swinging and beach access.

Swinging

My arms should really be super toned and defined after all the pushing on the swing that I did.

But I must say, I don't really understand boats....it is basically like sitting all day.

Our one adventure in Florida was a boat trip.  Lots of sitting and enjoying the sun.

And now we are reunited in Central Oregon, skiing with my parents. It is great to have a mixture of both Natori and Proskurowski families, beach and ski, west coast and east coast. Overall, a great happy two weeks and we are so happy all together. I hope everyone is having a great week!
