Cancun

So we spent the second part of our break in Cancun Mexico with my family. It was a wonderful get away and just a great time. Here are the top 10 things we loved about the trip

  • 10. having time in the warm, clear, blue Atlantic ocean (although most of the time the lifeguards would not let us in!) and play in the clean sand!
  • 9. shopping at one of my favorite stores (that is no where close to UT) ZARA! Although Chris spent more money there than I did.
  • 8. eating wonderful fresh guacamole and drinking tons of limonadas
  • 7. Chris getting to use his Spanish
  • 6. getting a chance to read! (I read 4 books over this trip)
  • 5. watching 24 on our iPods throughout the trip
  • 4. snorkeling in a river in a junlge-type place
  • 3. visiting Tulum (the ancient ruins)...along with our great tour guide Beto
  • 2. celebrating our FIRST YEAR anniversary (at a really nice stake house, that actually served cotton candy after the meals!)
DRUM ROLL PLEASE...
  • 1. getting to swim with dolphins which is a life-long dream of both Chris and I (these pictures will come later!
here is a slide show of all our pictures!

oooh looks like you guys had fun!!! i wanna go!!! :) happy first year anniversary, too!

we did get hit by the crazy storm. although we had 100 mile per hour winds and lots of rain and many many trees got knocked down and dan almost got hit by one when driving home...i didn't think it was THAT bad. i mean, there wasn't even snow. :)

OK, Amanda now you HAVE to come visit us in Houston because there is a ZARA at the Galleria mall, only 20 minutes from our house and I would LOVE to go shopping with you there!!! That store is pretty fun. Come visit us for Spring Break, we will be in our new house and we would have so much fun if you guys came... the beaches are warm here that time of year...

Chris, When I saw the picture with your glasses I had a flashback to your first day of Kindergarten!
