Our vacation to Mike's Beach Resort

Jeremy's mom and brother came from New Mexico to visit for a few weeks. We planed a trip with them to the Hood Canal at Mike's Beach Resort. It's a nice place by the water where you can rent a cabin, trailer, family rooms or group rooms. We got a cabin for mom and Jesse and a trailer for us. The trailer has a outside jacuzzi and it was next to the playground, so it was perfect.
La mamá y el hermano de Jeremy vinieron de New Mexico a visitar por unas semanas. Nosotros planeamos un viaje con ellos a un resort lozalizado en Hood Canal. Es un lugar muy bonito donde se pueden rentar cabañas, trailers, cuartos para familias o grupos. Nosotros rentamos una cabana para mamá y Jesse y un trailer para nosotros. El trailer tiene un jacuzzi afuera y está a la par de los juegos para niños, así que era perfecto.
On our first day we went to the dock and the kids fished for anything they could get. Here is Isabelle going down to the dock.
En nuestro primer día todos fuimos al muelle y los niños se pusieron a pescar por cualquier cosa que pudiera agarrar. Aquí va Isabelle hacia el muelle.
We all were looking at grandma's toes :o)
Todos estabamos viendo los pies de la abuelita :o)
Here are the kids fishing! Actually, André got some really cool jelly fish.
Aquí están los niños pescando! La verdad es que André agarro unos jelly fish.After spending time at the dock the kids went to the playground. Stephanie and I were probably making something to eat.
Después de pasar tiempo en el muelle los niños fueron a jugar. Stephanie y yo probablemente estabamos preparando algo para comer.
The kids played in the water for hours.
Los niños jugaron en el agua por horas.
After dinner we went to the cinema, which is next to the playground", to watch "Beverly Hills Chihuahua".
Después de cenar fuimos al cine, el cual está a la par de los juegos para ver "Beverly Hills Chihuahua".

The night it was beautiful. The moon and the star... it was so perfect! We made some fire to make smores.
La noche era hermosa. La luna y las estrellas... era tan perfecto! Hicimos un fuego para hacer smores.

I finally did it! A perfect marshmallow!!!
The kids were so exhausted that night that we didn't have any problems putting them in bed. My little Naomi slept like an angel. André and Isabelle share the same bed. Ariana decided to go with grandma because their cabin had a full bed and a bunk bed.
Los niños estaban tan agotados esa noche que no tuvimos ningun problema poniéndolos en la cama. Mi pequeña Naomi durmió como un angel. André e Isabelle compartieron la misma cama. Ariana decidió ir con su abuelita porque su cabaña tenía una cama matrimonial y una litera.
The second day we went claming. We had a hard time finding them but we got enough to have as an appetizer with our dinner that night. The kids found a lot of little tiny crabs that they were collecting in a bucket.
El segundo día fuimos a escabar mariscos. Nos costó mucho encontrar las conchitas pero agarramos lo suficiente para nuestro aperitivo de la cena. Los niños encontraron un montón de cangrejitos los cuales fueron pudiendo en una cubeta.



We also went diving. It was my first time this year and taking advantage of the hot water I decided to warm up my suit before getting in the cold water :o)
También fuimos a bucear. Fue mi primera vez este año y aprovechando del agua caliente decidí calentar mi traje antes de entrar en el agua fría :o)
Jesse, Jeremy and I dove together and I was in charge of taking pictures. So here are my first shot, two creatures that I saw... ohh, wait a minute, it's just Jer and Jess.

Jesse, Jeremy y yo buceamos juntos y yo estaba en cargo de las fotografías. Así que aquí está mi primer foto, dos creaturas que ví... hmmm, esperen un momento, es solo Jer and Jess.
On the third day we went to the camp site where there is a river and a little trail for hiking.
El tercer día fuimos al sitio de acampamiento para hacer una caminata.


Before we left Isabelle went on the monkey bars.

This looks like such an amazing place! Now I know why you loved it so much! ...love the shot of you in the hot tub in your dive gear! Now that's perfect diving for us! : )

It makes us miss the beach so much -- Elizabeth thinks Andre is the coolest guy ever to hold a "real" jellyfish in his hand! : )
