Because I Just Need to go Back to Vacation......

This is the reason Max couldn't go to bed last night......"because I just need to go back to vacation" he said with the saddest eyes as tears rolled down his cheeks and his lips quivered - and I'm not exaggerating. His heart was BROKEN :( Poor thing - and I agreed with him - I wanted to go back to vacation too! We just got back from a huge family trip to OC for Easter, and all of us had SUCH a wonderful time! The kids played with all of their cousins, and aunts and uncles and grandparents, and us adults got a chance to talk and reminisce and share lots of stories. We went to the beach, swam in the pool, drank lots of tea in the atrium, walked on the boardwalk, ate pizza and candy and a great big Easter brunch, and overall just had a wonderful time. Can't wait till next year.....

Here's a glance into all the fun the kids had on their Easter vacation :)
 

And here is a family pic - not the whole family, and only about 1/3 of the people on vacation (just who we could get together).....but what a good looking group :)
