Dominican Trip

We just returned from the most amazing trip to the Dominican Republic for Popster and Gg's Anniversary and 70th Birthdays. It was so great to spend time with Jims side of the family, having everyone together is always so much fun. We are so blessed to have such a wonderful, loving and hillarious family! We were spoiled all week, the staff was amazing, they waited on us hand and foot and were the friendliest people I've ever met. The boys had a great time, James got to do some serious snorkling, first with Uncle Rob and Aunt Cheryl and then with Mommy and Daddy. He is amazing with his snorkle set, we are so proud of our good little swimmer. He got to go horseback riding one day with Caterina, there was a kids club at the resort that did all kinds of cool activities, like lunches with "superheros", kids parties and pool games. Max was pretty clingy to Mommy, maybe just from being in a different environment but was a pretty good sport all in all. (He is now back to his independent self) He loved the music they played at the pool, especially during Bon Jovi's water aerobics, Max would stand there and dance. The boys were like little fish, in the water all day and slept really good at night. They loved the attention they received from the staff everywhere we went.

Here are some of the pictures, I'll be posting a lot more soon.

We are slowly adjusting back to the real world of cooking our own meals and getting our own drinks, geez.

The boys really seemed to be enjoying themselves

Mommy and Daddy too!

Max helping Bon Jovi out with the morning water aerobics routine. Yes we did participate in "the fabulous, sexy Bon Jovi's water aerobics" from time to time, I just couldn't handle it every day.... too much of a good thing.....
