Hotel rooms seem a little small with 6 of us...

I wrapped 50 little gifts (mostly from the dollar store) for the kids to open during the long car ride. Glow in the dark sticks (at night), pipe cleaners, barbies/aliens, dry erase boards and window clings were favorites. Quite frankly, just the idea of opening a present was a highlight for them. 

Footsteps from the ocean...

 Dogs loved the waves...

Can't wait for next time...
