Back from the beach

We returned yesterday from our family trip to Myrtle Beach. We rented a condo for 4 nights. the condo was very nice; It was a "home away from home". 3 BR/BA, full kitchen, and washer/dryer. Did I mention it was oceanfront. It had an indoor water park, water slides and lazy river. The kids enjoyed these amenities.

Phoebe spent too much time sunbathing and earned herself a nice sunburn. Victor, Victoria and Madelynn got a little too much sun also on the beach. Colin and I were the only ones to escape the burn.

The section of Myrtle Beach we stayed in was very quiet. We went to the "Ripley's Aquarium", it definitely wasn't worth the $70. The "Broadway at the Beach" was pretty nice. It reminded me of "CityWalk" in Orlando. Lots of restaurants, shops, etc.. We had a nice time there.

Isn't it funny how exhausted we return from vacation. We were all in bed at 9:30.

We still have the rest of this week off from work. Our granite is being installed, Victor is redoing our back splash. What a way to spend his precious days off. He has already asked me what "project" I will be asking him to work on for his next vacation.

Have a great week! I will update with the kitchen photos when we have made some headway.

We told Victoria to only hunt a specific color egg. Madelynn was mad because she couldn't hunt for those eggs also. She made out like a bandit, $14.00, enough for 2 trips to McDonalds!

Happy Easter Colin!!
