Happiness a la Mexico

We LOVE Mexico! Here are a few reasons why...
Sunset at Yelapa - accessible only by boat...
The beach at the bottom of the stairs from our casa
The sand is soft and the water is warm! The amazing pool and water slide at our resort in Nuevo Vallarta
Horseback riding in the jungle at another small village (Mismaloya)
Oh yeah!
Mine and David's hammock bed in Yelapa
Sierra's dream come true!
10 days of nothing but family togetherness -
we found out we really like each other!!
I don't know how Skyla got sunburned because
she was never out of the water...

The food was amazing, the people were friendly, the weather was perfect... A wonderful time was had in Mexico.

I'm glad it was such a great vacation for you all!! The pictures are making me really want to plan a trip there...after the swine flu thing dies down of course ;)

Oh my!! I don't know where to start! I can tell it was a total success! I can't believe that Sierra got to be in the water with the dolphins!!!!! The water is so blue! My brother looks like a totally different person. He looks so "in his element"! I do have to ask where the Birkenstocks are, though?! I am so glad that everything worked out for your Mexico trip!!!!! (I'm also glad that your kids weren't kissing any pigs!)

Love it, beautigul, so jealous. Glad you had a great trip.

Looks like a wonderful vacation. I think I could handle a 10 day vacation with the kids as long as it was just us - no catering to my family or the in-law's.

Sierra looks like pure bliss in that dolphin picture.

I am so glad everything worked out! It just looks like an incredible place! And your girls will remember this vacation for their whole lives! (Although I think you being gone for that long nearly killed Owen. He asked about Karsten multiple time every day. He even wanted to send him a letter.)

And I'm with Kelly, that bed looks awesome!
