12+1

this is what you get when you take 12 girls and 1 boy off for 4 days
it took some creative packing but we got it all in!
......

5 friends and their children loading up for a few days away

lots and lots of time at the resorts fabulous pool

(just realized we were missing a kid in this picture?)

......

Carly and I on the slide!

We had so much fun lounging by the pool, visiting, and sometimes getting hot enough to get in the ice-cold pool. It has been a long time since I have laughed so much.

......

My friend Jan and her daughter. A picture on the blog as proof to her husband that she actually did it. She said he would never believe that she did. Not only did she do it, but I think she liked it.

.......

"5 adults and 8 kids"....the 5 words that will strike fear into the eyes of a waitress! That was even before they grasped that there were 8 very tired children worn out from hours in the sun and playing hard. But, surprisingly we had 2 really good dinners out - Rosie's Cantina for Mexican food and Rickatoni's Trattoria for Italian food.

That sounds like so much fun. What were the sleeping arrangements like? I've never planned a trip with friends AND kids.

You all are brave, brave souls. Brave. Five adults and two kids at the beach last week was quite enough!

Looks like you all had a great time.
