greetings from Aruba!

We got here on Friday after a long day of traveling but needless to say the kids did great on the plane. We lucked out and had an empty seat on the plane for Ava which was great because she was able to stretch out and rest. After getting to the airport and getting through the VERY long line at customs, we got our car and headed to the hotel. Lets just say we are realizing nothing happens quick here. No one is in a rush, which has made us realize we are on VACATION! Jon and George headed to the pool with the kids and Kiki and I headed to the grocery store. Dinner at 8pm bed by 10pm.... a LONG day.

Saturday I got up early and headed right down to the pool to tag our chairs. If you don't get down early and tag them, basically you are out of luck. By 9am when we all headed down almost all of the good seats were taken. You can see, we spent the day at the pool .... the kids absolutely loved it! There is a water slide which the dads take the kids down (I think that it is really for them but their excuse to go down is that the kids do love it!)
The kids took a great nap and after that we stopped at the beach for a quick swim in the ocean. We cooked dinner in last night and when we realized that there was no one to clean up, we decided tonights dinner is out!
We are heading to the pool now... more pics to come!
