After returning from Vegas, we dropped off Ashlyn's friend, stopped at the house to check on the animals, and headed out for a week in Palm Desert at our home resort, Marriott Shadow Ridge. Although we have been going every summer, we look forward to the R & R we get from going there and doing very little. In fact, I think every morning our day didn't start until 10! But with all the running the past month in Cancun and Vegas, it was time to just vacation. This year our room was on the first floor next to the lake with a little peninsula. The girls had fun trying to catch polywogs, and feeding the ducks. They made several friends at the pool each day and caught up on all of their Disney shows! They even painted some pottery poolside. One highlight? We all went and saw The Dark Night. It was a fun, action filmed movie. Such a shame Heath Ledger isn't around any longer..Anyways, it was a fun week, one we always look forward to.
