Mexico Days 1-4

In Feb, we went on a needed getaway with three other couples to Mexico for 7 days!   First time away from the kids for that long, but they had fun with gran and we had an amazing time at the beautiful resort we stayed at.
'the adult pool' - which was so nice, somehow we got upgraded so we had access to this private pool - so we could just relax!
the way i'm posting these pics might seem a little haphazard...i'm combining pics from all of our cameras (not to mention it's may of 2017  and i'm FINALLY getting these up here...so the sequence is a little fuzzy to me!)

Snowmageddon

I think its hilarious as I look pics from this winter ….only to see that there are really not many pictures that were taken during the longest winter there ever was…the ones I did take (only when we came out of hibernation) were of food and snow… :)
Working on his number roll!! the kiddo loves to practice counting on his number rolls…basically on adding machine paper – he will just sit forever writing his numbers…i think he got over 1000 on one of his rolls
