The Girls

Here are a couple pictures of the ladies. I know I will catch some hell from the first one of Kya and Quinn because of nothing in Kya's hair to keep it out of her eyes, c'mon little slack would be appreciated. Did you know you have to put those in like everyday! It is a picture by the stairs which always keep Quinn on the edge of her game. She wants so badly to be able to fly down the stairs like her big sister, not yet, but soon! She is walking and getting around very well. She has been walking for about 3-4 weeks and seems to have given up crawling like moving from the JV to Varsity.

The second picture is a typical happy Quinn, a mouth open so wide she once accidentally caught a barn swallow.

We here at the Benson's, Post 58104, would like to wish everyone a very optimistic and enjoyable spring. I'm sure everyone is as excited as we are to enjoy the summer.

Hola!

At the end of February The Welks and Jen & I took a trip south, to the Riveria Maya just south of Cancun, Mexico. This first picture is by the pool at the resort. It was a pretty amazing pool, probably about 1 city block in lenght. It had many bridges that went over it and it had 2 swim-up bars. On the first day we were there, Rick and I participated in a water balloon fight! They filled up balloons about 1/4 water and the rest air, we had to through them back and forth over a volleyball net, the team with the most balloons on their side after 1 minute (or so) lost. I was suprised just how fun this was, many of the balloons broke in your hand as you were trying to throw them and many burst when they landed on the head of you foe on the other side. None the less, everyone had smiles from ear to ear for the whole "fight". The next picture is of the dolphin interaction area. This was on a small island called "Isla Majerus" or Island of the Women, about a 30 minute ferry ride off the coast of Cancun. This rec area is right in the ocean water and each of the pens has dolphins in it. The large area in the background is where all four of us swam with the dolphins. You hear about this being such an amazing experience and how the dolphins are so smart and interactive and so on. I have to tell you, its all true! We had a great time kissing them, dancing with them, splashing back and forth and talking with them. But the truely memorable part is when you are literally swimming with them. At one point they had us, one at a time, float in the water with our feet hanging down and our arms out like we are a "T". Then two dolphins, one on each side, swim on either side of your and you hold on to the dorsal fins while they tow you along. Even better yet, and this one you have to watch our DVD to fully appreciate, they do a "Dolphin push". This one, you float on the water belly down and legs locked. Then two dolphins each put their nose in the balls of your feet and push you up! You are standing out of the water straight up in the air! No effort on your part other than to keep your legs straight. You would think you would have to balance or something? No. Just stand there as they carry you for about 25 yards. Awesome! Regard to say, we all had a great week in Mexico. If you could just take out the travel time and headaches, it would be perfect. I know for a fact we will be going back, so anyone who wants to go to Mexico keep us and Rick & Mandy in mind. We're game!
