Palm Springs

Last Thursday night on a whim, the kids and I decided to head down to Palm Springs on Saturday morning with Becky and the boys for the week. On Monday, Chris, Kendra, Courtney and the girls made their way down to join us. The weather was great and the pool was warm. The kids had a wonderful time playing in the pool. By Friday they were worn out and missed Daddy and were ready to come home. I'm sure many of you are thinking "was she crazy to get on a plane with three kids by herself?" and the answer is YES, but it was well worth the risk and the kids did 10x better than I ever would have expected, especially on the way home. They are total troopers!

In the morning the Mallard Ducks were everywhere, so we had to feed them. The kids love it, but their favorite part was chasing them away.
