Mexico 2010

Here are some pictures of some of the things we did while we were in Mexico. They pictures are a little out of order, sorry. I'm not so good with the blogging thing...

Pair-a-sailing

While we were at the beach, this guy on a wave runner came up to us and asked us if we wanted to go Pair-a-sailing. Of course Steve and I jumped at the chance. This was something that we were both looking forward to.

Shopping in Cancun

While we were shopping in Cancun, there was this guy who had a monkey and you could pay him $10 to take some pictures with the Monkey. I just had to do it, he was so dang cute!

Shopping in Cancun

I loved this monkey! He was so precious! He kept trying to take the flower out of my hair. I almost just wanted to give it to him cause he liked it so much.


On our way home from shopping.

Eating at the Hard Rock Cafe.

Steve and "the mask"

Xel-Ha Natural Water Park

While we were in Mexico, we went to a place called Xel-Ha. Its a natural water park. It was so beautiful there. We went snorkeling and floated down a natural "lazy river" and played in the kiddy pool with the kids. They also had a spot where you could swim with the dolphins. It was cool to watch them. Unfortunately we didn't get to do it.

Our family at Xel-Ha

Our family again.

Lincoln playing in the kiddy pool at Xel-Ha. He loved the fountain in the middle.

Hanging out at the beach

Mason sleeping at the beach.

Mason loved playing in the sand. I was surprised, he didn't really even try to eat any of it. He just loved getting his hands in it.

Mason and Grandma at the beach.

Steve and I on the beach. A storm was coming and the sky looked so cool, so we had to get a picture.

Swimming in the Pool

Mason loved sitting in the kiddy blow up pool.

Swimming in the Pool

This is the pool at our beach house. It was so much fun. If we weren't out doing excursions or at the beach, or shopping, we were in the pool. It was so hot outside, that the pool felt so good, even at seven in the morning.

Here is Lincoln, Grandpa, and Corbin. Lincoln LOVED swimming with Grandpa!

Me in the hammock...

Just relaxing in the pool.

Lincoln also loved the hammock swing.

Day One

Mason, Lincoln and cousing Spencer playing with some puzzles. This was early in the morning before everyone woke up. Unfortunately for us who had kids we didn't get to sleep in on our vacation.

We liked to walk to the beach that was close by our house. We had a spot reserved just for us, so no one was there to bother us. It was so beautiful there. The water was so blue! It was so humid that our camera got fogged up for the first few pictures...

Lincoln and Daddy at the beach. This is Lincoln's first time on a realy beach (other than the beaches at Pineview Lake.)

At first he was a little scared of the water, but after he saw Daddy and everyone else swimming, he loved it.

Mexico 2010

Ok I know its been a long time since I've updated the family blog, so I'm gonna try and post everything thats been going in our lives...

Back in June, we went on a big family trip with my parents and siblings and their families to Cancun, Mexico. It was so much fun! We rented a big beach house and stayed there for seven days. Here are some pictures of what we did while we were there...

On the way there...

This is in the car on the way to the house after we had been on the plane all day... the boys were tired and not very happy campers.

We were supposed to have someone come meet us at the airport and drive us to the house, plus have another rental car, but no one showed up so we had to shove all of our luggage plus all 17 people in one van. It was quite the fun drive. ha ha

Here is Lincoln on the airplane. He would always fall asleep as soon as we started going. It was a nice because I was worried that he was gonna be wild the whole time, but he actually did a good job of playing with is toys, sleeping, and watching movies on the portable DVD player. Lincoln and his cousin Corbin loved looking out the window at all the big airplanes! They were so excited to ride on one.

Here we are getting ready for take off. This was Lincoln's first time on the airplane. He looks excited hu? ha ha
