Even knowing we could never build a good sand castle, the boys wanted to play in the sand so that's what they did.
And of course Miles discovered it was fun to throw the huge shells into the water.
The boy's somewhat of a castle.
Christmas is rainy season in Tahiti so there were several times when the clouds would part and torrential downpours of rain would begin. Actually really entertaining as long as you were already hot and could laugh about it. The house had this bizarre glass room in the middle of the side deck. We could never figure out what it was for so we just let the boys take over. They drove their cars there, kicked balls around when it was raining, and spent hours shooting darts at the glass.
And at mom.
See? Beautiful room but not sure the purpose.
This was the 1 bedroom. It actually worked great. We'd put the kids to bed when it was dark and then just read books or go to sleep ourselves. Miles slept on a mattress in the corner.
The house was seriously decked out. Taylor's mom oohed and ahhed about this shower head.
And we felt more secure with other renters in the house just a little ways from us.
The only real chore was sweeping out the constantly tracked in sand, but luckily Miles wanted to "help" :)
Lots of relaxing family time.
And truly a vacation because the kids could play and do what they wanted while we relaxed and did what we wanted.
And when it got dark there were always the ipods.
Cause these boys are pretty obsessed with them.
