April Highlights

Paxton showing off the tricks Blitz has learned.

 April 20th: Our final Pinewood Derby for Paxton, as the church is ended Cub Scouts at the end of the year.

Pictures of all the cars.  

 Paxton's car! No. 76 "Poops"

Paxton won First Place!  His fastest time was 2.4378 at 202.8 MPH.  He was so excited for the win! 

The video is a little wobbly and unfocused as Versii was asked to step in a film for us...he could use a little practice ha ha! Josh was running the ramp and car placement and I was running cars for each race from the table to the track.

 Paxton celebrating his win!  And Versii decked out in ribbons.

 Because of the accident, I am not supposed to spend time looking down.  So if I want to watch a show on the iPad, this is my new solution...a major stack of pillows to bring it to eye level.

 April 21st: Easter

My brother Reed and his family came over and our friends the  Higgins.  We shared a delicious dinner and the boys hunted Easter eggs in the front yard.  

 April 23, 2019: Versii's first track meet.  Unfortunately Josh and I were a little late and missed Versii running hurdles.  But he was so excited to be participating!

 April 25th: Super Gorgeous sunset view of Mt. Hood from our front yard.

 April 30th: Kaden's final track meet.

Throwing Javelin.

Last Days in Vallarta

 April 6, 2019:

Beautiful sunset on the beach.

 I love this picture of the boys!

 The boys had so much fun playing in the pool both day and night.

 Naturally when you stay at the Hard Rock, you must have a guitar sent up to your room.

Every night at Hard Rock they had an evening show.  

Josh and I really enjoyed the Fire Show.

April 7th

 The boys begged to set up a time to play tennis and we figured out very quickly why the afternoon time slots were open...way too hot to play roof-top tennis!  I think Josh and the boys played for maybe 10 minutes of their hour haha!

 Versii's sand rendition of a France in 1841. 

April 8th

 Josh and the boys went out exploring around town near our resort.

 They found delicious ice cream!

 Playing in the ocean.

 In the evening, Josh and I ventured out to enjoy some delicious food in town at Eddie's Place!  Definitely go there if you are ever in Nuevo Vallarta.  So so good! 

 After, Josh wanted to go eat desserts from this french restaurant he found online.  It turns out that it's inside this huge beautiful resort called Vidanta.

 We got to witness this beautiful fireworks show while we waited for our desserts!  We were in awe of how massive and beautiful this resort was!  We definitely want to stay here the next time we visit Vallarta.  It is gorgeous!

 Our score from Azur Bistro.

 April 9th - Getting ready to depart Hard Rock for the airport to travel back home to the United States.

We enjoyed our time in beautiful sunny Mexico!

The boys enjoyed many firsts: 1st time out of the country, zip lining, holding iguanas, swimming with dolphins and a sea lion, riding mules, snorkeling, ordering room service and swimming in the waters of Mexico.
