Mexico

Sorry, but this entry is kinda long!
At 4:00 am on Thursday the 15th we get up, get ready and hit the road. 14 hours later with four stops for gas, bathroom breaks, and food, and five Disney movies, we arrive to Rocky Point, Mexico. (Hallelujah for portable DVD players!!!) We imediatley got checked into our condo's and changed so we could get ourselves down to the beach. The kids were completely excited and had a blast playing in the water (which they miss terribly now). We played for awhile and then we headed back to eat some grub. We had two condos in two different buildings (they weren't far from each other)--Jenna, Morgan, Dan, the girls, Zoey, and I all shared a condo and Ryan, Ali, Shai, Cade, Oakley, Mom, and Dad had the other one. We all slept WONDERFULLY that night!










The next day we got up and had breakfast and then went down to the pool. There were many different pools, but we spent most of our swimming time in this one called the Infinity Pool. After swimming for awhile we went back up for some lunch and then down to the beach. It wasn't as cool because there were now tons of locals trying to sell us all their stuff (which some of it was way cool) and we couldn't just sit or walk without having to tell them 'no' or 'maybe later'. Mom and Dad did end up finding a good price for a dinner and cruise thing--which we didn't eat anything and it wasn't anywhere near a cruise boat, but it was really fun. We got on around 5:30 and didn't get back til 8ish. Then we went out to eat. Zoey was crazy dancing and singing all over the place, but the girls and I were exhausted. Scarlett actually fell asleep in my arms, which never ever happens.

Saturday all the guys got up at 6:30 to go deep sea fishing. We have some yummy fish that we get to eat now. They were gone til probably 2 or so. While they were gone the girls all went to the 'dirt mall' and walked around. It was so dang hot, I was pretty uncomfortable. We got some cool things though. At one of the shops there were a couple of puppies and so we had to stop for awhile for the kids to play with it.



The rest of Saturday and all of Sunday were pretty relaxed and chill. We played at the pool, played at the beach, collected seashells and sand and just enjoyed the vacation.





Monday we drove another 15 1/2 hours to get to our wonderful home. I do wish we could have stayed for one more day, but as you all know--it just feels good to be home!
