We went on this trip for a few special reasons. First to make some fun family memories, but also it was to celebrate Maxden's 4th birthday (which is not until the 24th) / Christmas present for the boys / "Maya-moon"(Our last planned vacation as a family of four before we bring home a sweet SISTER! Pregnant people get babymoons, so we had a Maya-moon!).
We left on Thursday morning and went to visit with family. Thankfully, my grandparents and Mark's Lola and Aunt and Uncle, live about 15 minutes away from each other so we got to see everyone!
Here are the boys with my grandparents and Mateo!

Another exciting moment of our trip was visiting with a Facebook friend that I've met through the Ind*a adoption groups. I've mentioned it before, but the people I am meeting on our journey to Maya are just amazing. I'm so thankful for all of them! So, when I found out that Michelle who is also adopting a daughter from the SAME region as our SweetP only lives 10 minutes away from my grandparents house, we made a plan to meet up. It was so awesome to meet her sweet family and just share our hearts for our girls and adoption.
The next morning we woke up bright and early and drove through rain on our way to the hotel.
The boys were so excited about the hotel. This place is like every kid's dream! Seriously. Legoland Hotel wins the prize. The giggles and excitement of our boys was enough to just make my heart melt! I wondered if staying at the hotel would be worth it and it totally was. Isn't our pirate room the cutest? So many amazing details!
After we were done checking in, we got to enter Legoland before the general public (another hotel perk!)
All the gluten and dairy free options both at the hotel and the park made for one VERY happy boy! Those apple fries were amazing!
Can you tell who the goofball of the family is?!
The Holiday Snow days were so much fun! This part of the park was all decorated for Christmas and had so many fun things for the boys to do. They loved playing in the snow, throwing snowballs and sledding!
My kids hate taking pictures. Trying to get them to look at the camera and smile is like pulling teeth. This is generally the face I get from Maxden when I ask him to smile...
Mason loved the endless supply of Legos all over the hotel!
We had no idea that Mason would turn out to be our little rollercoaster junkie! He went on every coaster that he could multiple times.
On Saturday, we made the boys take a nap so they could stay awake for the Christmas festivities later on in the night.
The boys were SO thrilled to head back into the park to meet the "real" Emmett!
We had such a great time making memories with these two little dudes.

Both boys were exhausted by the end of the day. Nighty night little pirates!
