Today we had to wake-up a bit earlier!!!
Yes, 7 am.
We had to get ready, eat breakfast, pack our day bag and met for pictures at a local park by 9:20 am.
AND
We did it!!!
The park was beautiful!!
We did a few pictures of all the girls dressed up.
A full-group picture --
I don't have one of those as all of us were in the picture.
So, I will have to wait until the photographer sends it.
We did family pictures -- ours is not great that a friend took -- hopefully the photographers is better :)
Next, we took pictures of the girls in their reunion shirts.
Before we left we got a great picture of the girls and mommy in our
CHOOSE JOY
shirts!
AND
one of the girls, too.
We brought the boys back to the hotel to enjoy a quiet morning watching TV and playing games
BECAUSE
we were going to The Magic House. This is basically an hands-on children's place -- kinda museum.
The girls ALL loved it but I am sure the boys would of been bored!
Musical instruments with water. LOVE BaJabs face through the water tube.
ANOTHER slide. This one was 2 stories tall -- all curly.
FUN!!
Doing some fishing.
Riding the train.
Climbing!
Water room!
Bubbles!
We got a nice lunch and headed back to the hotel.
The girls were able to get a nice long nap in :)
AND
When the woke up we were able to spend some time at the pool.
Elizabeth even learned to float!!!
All of the YueYang families met and went to a Chinese Dinner.
YUM!!!
After dinner our family decided to visit the Arch.
It was much cooler out!!!
The place was beautiful.
The tram to the top was sold out -- shucks -- I was NOT going up :) Yes, I'm a chicken!!
The boys are going on the first one in the morning -- it's only 20 minutes from the hotel.
We went through the museum, learned lots and had lots of fun!
She LOVES to pose :)
All 5 at the wheel -- and the man in the background came to yell at us about NOT touching it -- OOPS!
Elizabeth trying to pose like Thomas Jefferson -- Actually, all the kids tried -- FUNNY!
MD's was the best!
AND
Took some great pictures of the Arch!
All 5 against the north side of The Arch
JM lying on the ground trying to get a good picture. AND Elizabeth very interested in what he's doing!
A Nice picture of The Arch.
My 2 Crazy girls -- looking up :)
At least one of mom and dad!
We arrived back at the hotel in time to sign the special pillowcases.
My Darling signing each of the 13 pillowcases.
She did each one different and creative!
My Darling and I ended the night with some friends at Steak-n-Shake for a delicious mint cookies and cream shake --
It definitely was a full day but oh, the fun we had and the memories we made!
