Coming Up Collins: Our Trip to Cragun's and a few other things...

This was after arriving at the resort:

Both kids wanted to talk on the phones so we unplugged both of the room phones and let them pretend.

After we had gotten back from playing outside, Asher wanted to take a bath but I wasn't quick enough to get his clothes off...once I came back, I found that he had already gotten in...

The view from our balcony...

Ayris working on her arts and crafts one morning...

I decided it would be worth the 15 bucks (20 after tax and tip) to get Ayris the sparkle package at the spa...at first, it was looking kind of cute...

But in the end...it kind of looked like Ayris was headed off to the circus...

that...or some corner downtown...(I kid, I kid...but seriously...SCARY!)

Playing on the beach...

Feeding the ducks...it was 25 cents for a bag of corn...we probably spent 10 bucks the entire trip feeding these ducks =)

Posing before going to dinner...

One of the many animals/arachnids at the animal show one night...

A lemur...

Asher passed out after playing hard...

Asher getting his toenails painted...

Ayris painting my toenails...

Asher relaxing...

We also went on a boat during our trip but my camera battery was dead...so no pictures of that. Otherwise, it was a great trip...both kids cried when we had to leave.

Once we got home, I changed Asher's diaper and forgot to put another one on when I got distracted making some tea for Chris and I...Asher promptly reminded me AFTER he had pooped all over the stairs.

These pictures don't do it justice...the kid managed to get it on d*mn near every step.

Luckily Chris offered to clean it up...below is a picture Ayris took of me vaccuuming the stairs...I LOVE this machine...the stairs look like new after I use it. It gets ALL the cat hair off.

Last night Ayris pleaded with Chris and I to let Shadow stay overnight...shadow had lots of dress up time...here he is wearing a pink build a bear shirt (looks like a dress on him) with a bracelet as a necklace.
