The "New Cabin"

To celebrate Sammy's Birthday and the end of Summer Vacation...we had a Stay-cation! I pricelined a hotel and got one at the Pointe Hilton Tapatillo Cliffs! We went out to dinner the first night and Ben kept saying "I just want to go the cabin" I thought he meant my parents cabin (which he loves) but then I figured out he meant the hotel. The entire trip he was calling our room the "new cabin". I thought that was so funny! Anyway, I didn't get too many pictures because we were so busy! We swam a bunch, they had tons of kids activities...including the Wild Life World Zoo presentation...luckily we had front row and the kids got to see the baby crocodile, python, hedgehog, millipede and chinchilla up close and personal. We also went to a "dive in movie" and they had a Family Fun Center that had tons of games and arts and crafts...so fun! Did I mention we saw a baby king snake outside our room??? Yes, Sammy and I ran and the boys tried to catch it! I brought Sammy's presents to the hotel to open..she REALLY wanted a camera and she knew that she was getting one but she acted surprised. Luckily it's digital because she has already taken 100 pictures (literally). If anyone is wondering, she also got a new Webkinz (not the pink dragon that she requested because I couldn't find it), Hannah Montana Jammies, new shoes, and the American leotard from Target ( I am hoping she is in to the Olympics), oh and a new crab she named "Roxy"..I can't believe I didn't get a picture of that...so more on Roxy later, I guess.

Sammy LOVES bean burritos and that was what she wanted for dinner so we went to Chevy's. They sang Happy Birthday to her and gave her a sombrero...too cute!

Okay, this wasn't this weekend...but my mom gave Sammy a guitar for her Birthday and she is totally loving it. She wants to be a "rock star"!

Okay, back to the vacation (I mean Staycation) the kids tried sleeping in the same bed...didn't happen but they look cute!

Sammy doing arts and crafts and the Family Fun Center!

I never brought my camera to the pool...but here is a picture of the kids before we went swimming!

And finally, the Birthday cake! Over the last week I heard so many times Sammy say this "Some kids get a candle that says how old they are...that's pretty cool" She never came right out and ask for it but she did give me lots of hints that she wanted it...so thankfully, I delivered and she got her number candle!

All in all it was a super fun weekend and Birthday celebration! Too bad I didn't get a picture of me reading Breaking Dawn because you know I am...
