We headed to Punta Cana for our family vacation this year, as this year celebrates my parents 40th wedding and ours/Nichols 10th wedding anniversary. We decided to try an all inclusive for something different. We stayed at Dreams Resort and Spa and had a great time. Kate struck a pose by the flamingos.
Hopefully this picture is not foreshadowing our future! The workers were so sweet to our children and they often had their favorite Shirley Temples or Miami Vice drinks waiting for them!
Emma was a fan of the trampoline in the ocean (even though she would barely swim in the Ocean).
Sage liked to build sandcastles (or destroy the ones the girls built). He would get ankle deep in the ocean and that was as far as he would go.
This will probably be one of my greatest memories about vacation. There was a concrete island in the middle of the pool. Once the music was turned on, our children would dance and jump off of this island. The kids would often entertain the guests with their animated faces and dance moves.
The entertainment staff grew fond of the kiddos and their dance moves. They made this vacation very enjoyable and John and I even entered the chicken fight competition...No need to post those pictures though! Haha!
Hailey and Kate had their hair braided on the last day...a take home souvenir!
Cheers from the pool!
We left the resort for a shark and stingray snorkeling excursion. Unfortunately, Emma and Sage did not want to get in so John stayed stayed behind. It was pretty cool to hold a stingray and swim with the sharks.
Regardless of where we go, Jim usually likes to snorkel - so I had to post this picture of James and our expert!
