Backtracking a little...

This Christmas Will and I agreed to stay in town this year. But we still needed to do something during his time off. So we decided to do a "staycation" downtown at the Marriott.

We learned that a staycation is a perfect vacation for our family! Will and Caylin stayed in the hotel the first night and Aiana, Anika, and I met up with them the next day. It was a gorgeous day! We rented a sailboat and sailed around the harbor for a couple hours after breakfast. Anika really was not happy about wearing a life jacket so our adventure didn't last too long. But it was perfect. We then (since we were so close to home) went home to put the girls down for a nap.

The next night I took Caylin, Aiana, and her friend to the hotel for a girls night. Mimi met us at Sea Port Village for dinner. Will and Anika met up with us again in the morning for breakfast. Then we enjoyed a parade downtown, then again, headed home for naps. Finally, Will and I headed back to the hotel ALONE while Mimi stayed home with the girls! We had dinner at Mr A's, what an awesome place! The food and view was fantastic!! It was SO great to sleep in the next day and enjoy a yummy breakfast KID FREE! Thank you SO much mom!! The girls were great for Mimi and she said she would do it again! YAY! Success all the way around! :)
