Children's Museum

Shane always begs to go to this museum when we are in Palm Springs, his wish came true

We took hostage the luggage cart in our room and the kids had a good time racing it

Pool side action




Shane would rather float underwater by himself than go down the slide. He wasn't that into it

Hailey loved the waterslide and was able to break the rules (under age) by going alone. She went on the slide for 1.5 hours straight
One happy girl at the bottom of the slide getting ready to go up

Palm Spings- Westfield

10 Families from our neighborhood went to Palm Springs for the week. The kids had a continuous party for 7 days. Thank you MariAnn for hooking everyone up with rooms!

Newest Addition

We had some friends over for dinner and the kids were all running around outside while we were eating. One of the kids came into the house yelling, "Check this out, come and see". Right then Shane walks into the dining room and he is holding a baby peacock. He said it got stuck in the bushes and couldn't move and was cheeping calling for it's mom who was long gone. So now we have 4 Chicks.
I said to Jesse, "We aren't keeping that thing are we?" And of course he said, "Yes we are". The kids like the peacock more than the chickens now!
On a sad note- The peacock died 2 days later, i guess they need their mommies, unlike chicks! We learned the hard way.
