2 tickets to MX

Jeremy planned a getaway for us.  Carter and Luke at camp, Brayden at home with around the clock care (first time we have attempted that), so off we went to Cancun...where the water was beautiful, the resort was luxourious, the food was delicious and the rest plentiful.

At the JW.

Heading out for dinner (whenever we wanted not when the kids needed).
Having a great concierge to get us tables at fabulous restaurants, eating so much.
Then time on the wave runners (one for Jeremy and one for Carrie), a little speed in the ocean (and perhaps a wave runner crashing into my leg leaving a bruise the size of my leg but still fun).  Rented two days.
A time at the spa for Carrie.
We spent the morning working out, then off to an amazing breakfast at the resort (thus the working out because there may have been churros on our breakfast plates).  The day spent at the beach, in the cabana, sometimes a dip in the pool, absolute relaxation (helps when people are there to bring you drinks and food at any time).  Then the evening with a late dinner at some delicious restaurant.  Just a few days in MX but oh so amazing.

Boys at Adventure Camp

A crew from NoVA headed to Doe River Gorge for camp (6 boys and 5 girls).
Hours of fun, check out the video and look for Carter (especially up in the ropes) and Luke.  High ropes and challenges, river fun and lots of games.

to Hilton Head

Time for our family vacation.  Off to Hilton Head for some relaxation.  Days on the beach.

to Hilton Head, Bikes and all the animals

We rented three-wheel bikes to go for a ride.
There was a beached pilot whale. 
Then down to find starfish and hermit crabs (every where!).
Those bikes relaxing but it is a workout, a long ride for a couple of miles.
Still fun so Jeremy rented them again (although Luke didn't make it through the second ride, he headed back to hang with mom and Brayden).
Back to the our part of the beach and could still find all kinds of wild life.
