Palm Desert

Last Thursday we went to Bermuda Dunes which is out by La Quinta in the desert for a long weekend. This was our second annual trip. Thank you Uncle Tommy and Aunt Debi for letting us use your house. We had a great time, I didn't want to come home. We went with my Brother John and his family, my nephew Sammy, and the girls each brought a friend. There were a lot of firsts for Jake this weekend. We did a lot of just hanging around and sitting in the pool. It was very relaxing and much needed! The guys did 5 rounds of golf! Craig was in heaven. It was Jake's first vacation, first time in the pool, and his first time eating cereal.
Yes, Jake is wearing pajamas in the pool...the Dr. told me that was the best way to protect him from the sun. It worked! And I would have never thought of that on my own!

It didn't seem like he liked the first bite but he finished the whole bowl!

James did very well in the pool. He has no fear, and I don't think that is a good thing. I think I went from one extreme to the other. Brianna wouldn't even get her face wet and James is jumping in without anyone even paying attention!
He loves floating, which is nice to relax him once and awhile!

Playing with Daddy

Going to get the cars all by himself under the water! Sammy making sure he doesn't drown.

All the kids playing

Brooke, Brianna, & Sabrina

The Nelsons were out there on vacation also and came by for a visit, James was thrilled to play with Jude. This was also a first for James...Otter Pops!

Daddy took James out on the golf cart, another thrilling adventure!

Sabrina & Jake

A great time had by all, can't wait to go again!
