We're Back!!

I have to say that a week without a computer is awful! I know that is pretty sad. I have to say it was nice to open my blog lines and see a update from almost everyone that I read! But I will not regret going to Mexico. We had a great week away, but by the end we were missing the kids. Although we did have one little reminder, thanks to Emmy. She was a trooper. I thought that it would have been a lot harder having her along, but for the most part she went along with everything we did without a lot of complaints. It even felt sometimes that she wasn't even there.

Our trip started out terrible. (And for that reason we will never fly AA again) Every one of our flights were delayed, and we had to go through customs twice each way. We did finally land in Cancun only 8 hours later than expected. But once we were in the rental car it was smooth sailing. We had a great time at the beach, and spent a couple of days going to the Tulum Ruins and Xcaret. Both well worth the trip. Next time we will do a lot more than just shopping.


Pat saw these Spider Monkeys in Playa Del Carmen and just had to hold one!








This was the best restaurant that we ate at. It was unbelievable, but I can't remember the name of it. Can you believe it is only 7:30pm and already dark.


In the butterfly exhibit at Xcaret.


Baby sea turtles. The gather eggs from Xcacel beach and hatch them, then release them back in the ocean once they are big enough. So cool close enough you could even touch them. Too bad they had security watching over them.

Tulum ruins.

The water was awesome.
We were able to walk down to the beach right in the ruins, and go for a swim. Emmy had her first taste of sand, and ocean in the same day.



Pat has been begging for a pet Iguana forever, unfortunately this is the closest he will probably get to owning one. They pretty much ran free everywhere you went.
