Back from Indio...

So...we returned from Indio on Sunday night...and came back to about the same heat! :( It was blazing hot the whole time we were there, but we still managed to have a blast with my mom and dad and Emilie and Brice. The resort was very nice...and included a lazy river and 2 huge pools. We went in the lazy river pretty much every day, but only going in the later afternoon as the average temp was about 113 degrees. Didn't feel that much hotter than here, but it was still enough to melt the makeup right off of my face. (Not really) We cooked great dinners every night and were able to go out to a great meal early Sunday night to a place called Haleiwa Joe's, a kind of seafood and steak place. Our original plan was foiled because we did not have a reservation for another restaurant, however, I think we were all pleasantly surprised with the meals!! I had an awesome salmon dinner and Mike had some great pork ribs. We would definitely recommend the restaurant to anyone. On the way home, we stopped at the famous BIG dinosaurs for Coley to see. He had a blast! He was a bit apprehensive at the beginning, but soon found out that they were very cool and even got the guts to sit in one of their mouths. All in all, we had a great time and are so glad we had the opportunity to get-away with the fam. Here are a couple of pictures from the trip.
