Weekend Getaway

Beautiful scenery surrounding the pool


Last weekend we went with a group from Jonathan's school to Khao Yai National Park. We stayed at a nice little resort near the park. It was so nice to get away from the city and to go out into nature (which I so dearly miss since moving to a city). It was so beautiful there - with so much greenery, mountains and there were so many butterflies at our resort. Upon arriving and getting out of the van - one of the first things Kaiya said to me was "look Mom, Mountains!" We got to spend some time at the national park and we spent a lot of time at the swimming pool but mainly just enjoyed being out in God's nature. One of Kaiya's parting remarks when we were leaving was "I wish we could stay here forever." I know what you mean...

Birthdays - Part 2

We had a second birthday celebration for Kaiya and Jonah with my sister Laura and her family. The original plan was to go to a water park for the birthdays, but unfortunately 3/4 of our family was sick. So our alternate plan was that we had pizza and opened presents at home. We had a great time despite being sick.
