Cozumel: Part One (Orange City, IA:)

Jason and I just returned from a wonderful trip to Cozumel this past Monday.  It was warm and wonderful.  Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for creating such a special visit for all of us!  The kids had a blast, and it was such a blessing to know that they were in good hands while Jason and I were away.  Here are some pictures from the first few days before we headed out on our adventure and you began your adventure...:)

  Early Egg Hunt: Before the trip, but wanted to share it anyway:)
 Raiding the fridge at Grandma and Grandpa's---Freya knows where all the good stuff is, and at Grandma and Grandpa's, there is never a shortage!
 Running down the hallway---giggles the whole way (and a big soft pillow to greet them at the end:)
 Gusto--loving all the action---whenever he is awake, there is a three-ring circus to enjoy.  One benefit to having older siblings: lots and lots of free entertainment!

 Visiting the chicks and ducks at the hardware store in town is one of Mommy's (and now Freya's) favorite early spring pastimes:)  Someday we will bring a duck(or two or three) home when we have a yard!




 All their clothes were organized by outfits and ready for a week of fun:)
Jonas getting busy on one of the MANY fun activities that Grandma has just laying around the house.
   Stay tuned for part 2:)
