Spring Break 2013

This spring The Melchi Parents went to Florida for a few weeks so the Melchi Kids and their sidekicks went down for a visit over Sydney's (our nieces) spring break.  All seven of us made the trip down over the a period of a few days.  We had a lot of fun going to the beach, the pool and just relaxing.  The kids had fun swimming in both the pool and the ocean.  We looked for shells by the ocean and enjoyed the sunny weather.  While we were there we even celebrated Sydney's 12th birthday.  I don't think there is a better way to celebrate your 12th birthday than in sunny Florida. 

There were a couple of downers to the trip, Sam (our youngest nephew) got sick just before it was time for his family to head to Florida for the trip so he and his dad did not come until a few days later when he was feeling a little better but then got sick again while they were in Florida.  So Erika and Rob had to spend some time at the local hospital in Florida with him.  Then just a few days before Kirby and I were to head home Kirby came down with a sore throat and sinus infection so off to the walk in clinic we went where they confirmed what we already knew but gave him a prescription for some medication.  Kirby was a trooper and made the best of the situation.  He would take a nap and I would go to the pool to swim with the kids, read a book or take a nap in the sun.  Even though there were some downers to the trip we had fun and it was nice to get away as a family. 

Here are some pictures from our trip, enjoy!!

Spring 2013

Well it was another busy spring with lots of fun activities to go to for our niece and nephews.  They are all very busy which in turn keeps Kirby and I busy running from one activity to another.  However we enjoy it.  Our spring was filled with swim meets, soccer games, baseball games, band concerts and choir concerts.  They were all fun and the kids did great!  Here are some pictures from the different events.  Enjoy!
