Vaca at the beach...

Once the calvary arrived (aka Jason) the Jimenez Family vacation TRULY began!

Everything seemed a little bit easier...not quite as many catastrophes...and there were a lot more smiles!!!

Amy has always wanted a hair wrap...like the big girls...so we promised that this trip to the beach she could get one!

(I was just thankful it wasn't a tattoo she was asking for! :-)



I tried to pay close attention as the woman wrapped Amy's hair...I seriously doubted it could be that hard to do at home. But...I got a little distracted and pretty soon it looked like this...



... super cute...but too complicated for this mommy to figure out!







What would a vacation be without a few treats here and there!

This is my favorite one of them all...





...hot and fresh Krispy Kreme doughnuts!!!

The last day at the beach we were able to hang out with our friends, the Bruces.

The boys were so excited to spend time with their best buds!

Total beach bums! These two were in the water the ENTIRE day!!!

So while the vacation itself was far from restful, calm, and relaxing...

it was jam-packed with smiles, sunshine, sand, and sweet family time!!!
