Five Days in Indio, California!!!! - April 24 - 29

Five days in Indio!! - April 24-29, 2011
We spent 5 beautiful days in Indio.  We all loved and enjoyed relaxing by the pool.  We again had a wonderful hotel room.  This time we had a full kitchen, so we could make our meals in the room.  The weather was great and we all were able to take home a tan.    We spent most of our time by the pool, Mattias was able to practice his swimming and even William became more brave in the water.





On Wednesday morning we went and picked up my parents from the airport in Palm Springs.  The kids were very excited, they haven’t seen my parents much in the past two months. (they were gone for a month, then we left shortly after their return)  We then were able to check out their new vacation house.  We are very excited for them (and us)  to have such a beautiful place to go for vacation.
On Thursday night we went to Palm Springs to a street fair.  This was neat to walk around and see all the different things.  So many touristy things to buy, but I have been very good on this trip to not pick up things that I will not use once I get home.  We have walked into quite a few gift shops and walked out with nothing.  I have gotten rid of a lot of stuff in the last few months in my house and realized pictures hold great value in remembering things we have experienced and they usually take up less space.  (especially when they never get developed!!)
On Friday morning we packed up and got ready to leave.  We were all very sad to leave the beautiful weather.  We are not ready to go home yet.  The kids all wanted to stay with Grammy and Grandpa.  We drove to the Cabazon Outlets and did a little shopping and had lunch before we said good-bye to my parents and headed to Las Vegas.

Here are some pictures by the pool!!!




Vegas here we come!!!
