I am back from Costa Rica. It was awesome! The kids and I had a great time. We went to the beach, swam in some rivers, went to a restaurant where the kids were able to go fishing while we waited on our food, and Mikayla had her 5th birthday party there. There were about 20 kids there, with my 2 being the only ones to speak english, lol. But kids are kids no matter what country and they all had a great time together. They met their big-brother for the first time. He speaks both languages, english and spanish. He was great with the kids. I was a bit worried about the age difference, but the 3 had a blast together. What other 16 yr old boy would let a 5 yr old paint make-up on him? LOL.
I will post some pictures later and tell more about it. I am still have almost a week of stuff to catch up on here at home.

I was thinking of you!I am so glad you made it home safely, and I cannot wait to see pictures!!!

So glad you had a great and safe time!
