rock bottom

***may contain some sarcasm and exaggeration...beware...

i haven't posted.
maybe you've noticed.
kind of that whole "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" idea.

the weather has been AWFUL.
rainy. cold. windy.
we literally can't even go ONTO the beach.
for DAYS.

we LOVE the people we're with.
but we're all on top of each other.
this afternoon...after going to walk up and down sand dunes for a couple hours and exhausting them this morning and making puppets out of paper bags...then some "rest time" apart...and painting nails...and a water balloon fight...there were some kids that were literally clawing at each other's faces.

so some of the dads decided to take some of the kids to the indoor pool
{such a NICE thing about the neighborhood we're staying in!}
and...
the indoor pool was closed because someone POOPED in it!

so...rock bottom over here.

i know.
we have SO much to be thankful for.
we're together.
we're healthy.
we're with so many people we love.
on VACATION!
blah, blah, blah.

it stinks.
i have NEVER had a vacation with such awful weather.
we might as well have not even brought our bathing suits.

more of the pictures and stuff that's actually going on coming soon...
there are still some fun pictures.
and stories.
and lots of yummy food and laughter!

and, hey!
the girls are going out to dinner tonight!
whoo-hoo!!!
{i think the guys recognize that we're about to DIE!}

I'm sorry you guys are stuck in side, but at least it's with people you love. Praying for some good weather for tomorrow or at least for the pool to open up for the kids.

WHAT????? Oh no....that is TERRIBLE. Ugh and ugh again. Maybe come on home and have a big sleepover at your house and enjoy your pool! It's gorgeous here. Enjoy everybody!!!!!!

Sorry weather is so bad...I have a feeling we'll be having the same when we go in a week. I pray you enjoyed girl's night. Just enjoy the love of those around you and lock all the kids in their rooms!
