The morning of Mariah's birthday Mariah wanted cake for breakfast and so did her sister! Ava likes all food and I mean all food!! If we are eating anything she wants to know about it and she wants a bite!!

Pctures of the Volcano in Costa Rica

This volcano was amazing! We sat by the pool and could see the smoke coming off as the lava went down the side! One side as you can see in the picture has vegetation but he other side is where the lava mostly flows....it was so cool! In the middle of the night we woke up to see fire orange lava rolling down the side! Def. something everyone needs to see one day!

Finally Coast Rica Pictures!

We had an amzaing trip to Costa Rica! We lost our battery charger and had
to get a new one so I haven't been able to do anything with the pictures! Be prepared there are a lot of pictures! These are only half of the pctures we took! I am so excited to share them with all of you! Jim's parents own a house in Costa Rica on the Pacific Ocean the pcs you see are of their house. We were there for 11 days and had a AWESOME experience! Mariah even learned some spanish so she could play with the kids she met down there! Enjoy the pics!!
