Mexico!


Well we went on vacation!!! We dropped Callie off at grandma's and headed with our friends to Mexico! We had so much fun!

Here we are our first day and we loved seeing bright blue water on the Sea of Cortez!


This is the beach house we stayed at!



My friend Brittany pointed out that these mountains in the distance are white. When I asked why, she said that they are covered in bird poop! Eeewww Gross!


Andrew tried some ocean Kayaking, but the weather was stormy and the waves were too big!


Here's another attempt with the "Water Oasis" raft. Matt and Andrew almost tipped over!


Then Matt had a good idea. Pull a Boogie board behind the Rhino!


I found a whale bone our last day of exploring!


We would find these Jelly Fish randomly on the beach. It was amazing to see how "Smurf" blue they were.


This is the view on the other side of the beach. This is a lot of Cacti!


And last but not least a beautiful Mexican sunset!
We had a great time!
Oh and by the way...when we got home I realized my driver's license had been expired for a month. I went through two airports and across the border and no one noticed. Way to go Homeland Security!!!

So freaking jealous... That's all I have to say.

Well I obviously didn't ask enough questions today. Fun trip and even more fun to go with friends (and as much as we love our kids, it's nice to be able to say up late and follow your OWN schedule)! And it's pretty much so unfair that you didn't probably see a drop of the rain the whole time you were there. Yep, we were soaking it all up here for you.

Woot woot what an adventure!!!!! I'm so glad you had such a wonderful vacation!!!!! Time to play and relax and be Amy and not Mommy for a while was wonderful I'm sure! I love all the fun pictures! I'm bet coming back was a little tough :) Glad you didn't get any hassle from the airport fuzz.

You look like a lobster and you peel like a banana! Ok, so I'm not so good at the analogies...oh well.
