DAY 3

With it being Sunday, a few of us thought a nice walk on the beach would be nice. Originally it was only going to me, mom and Emily. But as I was getting ready to go Jesse and the boys woke up and wanted to join. So we met everybody else down at the jetty to start our morning. When we saw each other we got a kick out of the fact that Mom and Ryker were totally matching. 
The girls stuck together talking while the boys were running and playing. 
If you haven't noticed yet, I really like to take pictures. But not everyone does. So when I see an opportunity for a great photo I usually jump on it despite the griping I get from everyone. They all say they love the pictures after they see them, just don't love taking them. So when I saw these palm trees on the jetty I had to get a picture. they were so pretty. Of course getting a picture with the whole group is requires hiring a stranger to take it for us and relying on if they are going to take a good picture or not. This lady totally cut the trees off and so I was a little dissapointed by that.
When there are rocks we hope to find sea creatures. But no luck this time.
Taking a family photo without Fynn just feels wrong. But with that said I love this picture. It's so pretty with the palm trees in the background, Right?
After our morning walk we went to "The Andrea" for breakfast. As we were walking towards it we were laughing at the Peacock that seemed to be blocking traffic to allow the other peacocks to cross.

Once breakfast was over we set up camp by the pool. It was so nice to sit and chill with each other as we watched the littles play in the pool with each other.
Had to take the opportunity of getting all of us together for a selfie. Haha. I sure do love all of these people.

We'd get sick of being by the pool and so we would go down by the beach to switch it up. We found a few people starting a game of volleyball and Ryker really wanted to join in. I was impressed how well he was doing. Ryker tends to want to be with the adults more than Sterling and Cy do. But I think it's because Ryker is 3 years older than those 2 boys and they have each other to entertain. So he tends to pull towards us. Which I think is great.
After playing in the sun all day we headed back to our rooms to shower up for dinner. But before we went to dinner we had to get a glimpse of the sun setting over the ocean after a perfect day.
Dinner was special tonight. They had it in the big ballroom and it was a Mexican Fiesta. The food was amazing. I always love Mexican food anyway, but it was extra yummy. Then they had entertainment. That same Mariachi Band we saw the first night at dinner was playing music. They were really good.
Eventually they had a game for kids that was quite comical to watch. But after awhile it got really long. We thought the show would be over by that point, but they continued with more entertainment and an auction. After being there for almost 3 hours we decided to call it a night and we left early.
We went walking on the beach to find turtles because Tyson and Tayler had seen a mama turtle last night. So Mom was determined she was going to find one.

With no luck we all headed back to the rooms. I had a tummy ache from all the yummy food and wanted to get to bed.
