Paradise Island Bahamas

We recently went on a Wonderful vacation with the boys to Atlantis on Paradise Island in the Bahamas! It was such a great vacation, I definitely recommend it! I've been wanting to go for so long, and we finally made it there. There was so much for the boys to do and it was so fun playing together for that whole week. Of course I took a TON of photos!



It was so nice leaving behind the freezing weather for a little bit!



Braxton and Chase sitting together looking at the view from our room. Do you notice their stuffed animals on the chair next to them?



The kids never got bored walking anywhere because anywhere you walk, you are passing by some sort of ocean life.



This was the kids' most favorite pool to swim in because of the water slides built just for their size. The lifeguard staff were so nice and the kids had so much fun! Brian and I got to lay right by and soak in the sun while we watched them play.








The resort had daily games for kids and parents to play to win prizes. We made sure to play a few and we won several souvenirs which was nice because they were free! Brian and the boys played in a home-run derby and Chase and I played giant Candyland and I even took 2nd place in a hula-hooping contest! There were even daily kids crafts as well.



One night after dinner, the kids got to play along for the Junkanoo Parade.



Ocean life exhibits were everywhere.





We got to meet some dolphins and get in the water with them. We did things like give them high-fives and feel them and they would do tricks and the kids loved giving the dolphins hugs and even a kiss. On the way to the Bahamas, Chase told a stewardess on the plane that he was going to kiss a dolphin and she thought it was so cute that she took Chase to the captain so he could tell the captain! You weren't allowed to take your own camera into the water to take photos of the dolphins, we had to purchase them, so I will have to take a photo of our photos and I will post those.



Playing on the Beach!





The boys saw that Santa Claus was there one night and started running to go and sit on his lap. However, I'm pretty sure it was a girl dressed up as Santa. The kids didn't care or realize and were excited to tell Santa what they wanted for Christmas.





Here are the kids at the end of every day! Lots of swimming, playing and exploring made tired boys! We can't wait to go back again!
