Day 4- A Pool Party and a Rehersal Dinner

Good morning!  Day 4 started out nice and slow with a simple breakfast in our condo before heading over to visit with Auntie Jenny, Grandpa Art and Rhonda. 
We had a bit of time to wander around the resort- Emma was in charge of pictures!
And then we headed over to the pool party.  There's all of the Morales cousins!
I was not interested in getting in the freezing cold water, but I had lots of nice visits with everyone as they sat down and warmed up again. 
Crazies.
It was actually perfectly lovely (when dry and not wet) weather and we all had a lot of fun at what we knew would be our last dip in an outdoor pool in 2022. 
After the ceremony rehearsal (Daddy walked down the aisle with Grammy Q and I walked with groomsman number 4), we headed into town for a delicious meal and fun night celebrating Sarah and Colin. 
Grammy Q was in charge of the activities and was grateful for the one wedding party game I know- the shoe game- which Auntie Emily hosted perfectly and got lots of laughs out of everyone. 
This makes my heart smile- these kids have some wisdom when it comes to making marriage last. 
Always forgive and share feelings. 
Never lie.
Don't forget to be patient.
A lasting marriage is built on honesty, forgiveness and love. 
Sometimes to need to fix what's broken, not throw it out. 
I wish you both happiness and love. 
Love, the Morales kids
And just like that the sun went down and we called it another night.  It was really nice that we had our own place to go back to at the end of the night.  If all the travel this year has taught us anything (and it's taught us a lot!) it's that it's rarely worth staying up all night long or insisting on being with all of our fellow travelers day and night.  It's quite nice to have a time together and a time apart.  And by this point in the trip we were tired enough that we all definitely enjoyed this night in our family condo.
