It's hard to believe that we spent most of our "winter break" at the pool, but we've been taking full advantage of the heated pool and temperatures in the 70's and 80's! Cash loves "diving" into the deep end, which starts off like a swan dive but ends up more like a belly flop! ha! He's a descent swimmer, and I'm sure the fearless kid will be doing backflips off the high-dive before too long ;) Jake likes to play and splash in the water, and he loves to wear his swim goggles. He does not necessarily like to put his face under water! Reminds me of a saying my Papa Nelson used to say, "You can go swimming, but you can't get wet!"

The Dubai Mall is right across the street from us, so it's a quick walk and has lots to offer! We can get a bite to eat, watch the water fountain, go to the toy store, grocery store, movies, etc. There is also a dinosaur skeleton on display that is over 155 million years old! It's pretty impressive and was discovered in 2008 at the Dana Quarry in Wyoming! Almost all the bones were found intact at the excavation site and is over 80 feet long!

We managed to fill our other days with outings to the park, an indoor play gym and even the beach!

Now we are back in full swing with Mason back in school and the twins just finished their first week of preschool! Baseball games have resumed and the horse racing started up last night! These next few months are going to fly by!
