The Gray Family!

More coming soon :)

Red Nose Day!

I keep more up to date on my flickr account … it’s free to join :) Join in and I will add you to my friends and family list so you can see all my photos! Here is Sammie on Red Nose Day.

They got to dress crazy today for school for Red Nose Day. You can read about it above!

Sammie wore trousers with a tutu over it, Alex’s skull and crossbone babylegs on her arms, her Little Miss Chatterbox t-shirt, mismatched trainers and a bazillion braids in her hair! (The braids made us 10 minutes late WOOPS!)

Alex had his surgery!

He got his tubes put in yesterday morning. We got there at 7am and he was prepped … he went back around 7:30am and was out about 15 minutes later! He did GREAT! Now hopefully it solves all his hearing/speech problems! Here he is looking so adorable :)

(More Spain pics to come tomorrow…)

Spain Day three …

Sunday we just hung out around the resort … went swimming, walked to the beach, danced around the room (they had an iPod hook up in the alarm clock! So cool!) Here are the pics smile

Here we are dancing around the bedroom … Sammie is such a little ham! Her dance moves are quite interesting to see the least! She is getting some British influence haha! She was in the mirror singing along to Hairspray! I have video too I will post later.

Alex liked the big mirror over our bed, too … dancing and playing peek a boo!

These are backwards … we walked down to the beach and then walked around the area of the resort we hadn’t yet.

Washing shells …

It was super windy that day!

Can you see Sammie and Dennis below? giggle

And the family adore

Spain Day 2…

Day two was our first full day here! After a HEAVENLY night sleeping (the beds rock!) we woke up and had breakfast and then decided to hit the pool. Beautiful and nice and warm! Alex was not all that excited about it but Sammie loved it! We did the jacuzzi too … nice and hot!

Then it was back to the room and bath time!

We headed out and booked our two trips (Wednesday we are all going to Gibraltar and Thursday I am going to Tangiers). Then we walked to the little town closest to us and had some Chinese food … that is where Alex fell and busted his lip. We went shopping and got some popsicles to help the swelling go down.

We hung out around the resort, Alex napped and then right near sunset Sammie and I walked to the beach because I wanted to get some sunset shots!

Sammie was loving it! Digging for shells, writing words in the sand, and running around!

And a sad attempt at a shot of both of us, with the timer on and sitting on a rock…

And this is my favorite!!!

Spain Day 1 … February 6th

Well we left in a snowstorm and arrived into Paradise lol The drive to Gatwick airport was long and a bit scary, but we made it … took about 1 hour longer than normal. Check in was a breeze, no lines at all! Waited about 1 hour to board and then on we went. Got to jump the line! European airports are pretty family friendly! Alex did well … he fussed a bit because he was tired but then he fell asleep in my arms. Sammie behaved wonderfully and ate some snacks, drew some pictures and it was great. Alex LOVED watching us land and so did Sammie … she made me give up my window seat for landing. Here are some photos of the drive in the snow and the flight …

Sammie took this one! She saw the ship and wanted a photo smile

Happy New Year!

Well I fried the old blog :( A bit upset that I lost everything I had written because I am not too great at keeping up anywhere else. Ah well, at least the kids will have photos … because I certainly have PLENTY of those!

I will be back sometime this week for a proper update and to finish setting up the blog again!
