AMIGOS!!!

Sadly this will most likely be my last post about Mexico :(

But you know that I have TONS more pictures, so if you want to get the full effect, just come on over and I can go picture by picture, moment by moment, and sing and dance too!!! (okay I won't dance)

Melanie and Misty :)

Scott and Ray; they have been friends since pre-school, they really are more like brothers than friends and I think it is really neat that their friendship has been able to endure all these years!!! 

Super heroes!!!

I love the wave in the background!!!  Don't they look awesome though!!!

Going on vacation with friends is the way to do it!!!  I loved every minute of this vacation, we played, we laughed, we cried (mostly from laughter), we shared stories and created memories (only enough memories to last us til the next vacation, wink, wink;)

Thanks Ray and Misty for making our vacation a blast, can't wait til next year!!!

Just as a p.s. don't my legs look awesome and seriously toned!!!

Cassie - again you should be proud of me!!!

:)

 

Laughable Lines from Lainee

I interrupt this vacation to bring you a little humor:

Sat. Scott took the kids to the pool for our Stake Swim Day (I had a migraine), and after they got home I asked Lainee what she had for lunch she said "a chicken foot!" ewwwwww. (I am pretty sure she meant chicken leg............hopefully, anyway!!!)

On Sun. Scott was helping in Lainee's primary class and they were talking about being a missionary now, and how they could invite friends or neighbors to church, Lainee leans over to Scott and says "Well Brina and Melanie Hammer already come to church." (both of whom are our next door neighbors), so guess she's covered :)

As Lainee has Sophie in a headlock and is lying on top of her, poor Sophie is yelping and trying to wriggle her way out from underneath her, Lainee looks up at me and says "I don't understand why she isn't enjoying this??", hummmmmmmmmmm, I have no idea why she wouldn't just love to be squished and held down!!!

So Lainee comes to me and asks if she can have the money that is on Scott's bedside table, I tell her that she needs to ask her Dad.  When Scott gets home she proceeds to ask him if she can have his money and says "I will pay you back!!" and then as she is walking away finishes quietly with a "someday!",  a little while later Scott reminds Lainee that she still owes Bradley a penny to which she replies all proud of herself, "No I don't, I just stole a penny from Kenndee *giggle*!!"

Lainee was also telling me today that Scott had to help during Singing time yesterday, she was telling me that he had to blow up a balloon during a song and that the better they sang the bigger the balloon got.  So naturally I asked her what song she was singing to which she replied "the pirate song!!"  ummmm, what?!?!? I don't think there is a pirate song in the children's songbook.  But our songleader is a very devout Pirates of the Caribbean and Cap'n Jack lover sooooooo, I asked Lainee to sing a little of the song she learned, so she did; Piiiirrraaatttteeee children sang as they walked and walked and walked and walked!!!  Oh gosh did I ever get a laugh out of that, she seemed a little confused so I explained to her that it didn't say pirate it said Pioneer children walked and walked, she just looked up at me seemed to contemplate that for a minute and then said "Yeah, that does make more sense!"

Hope you have a good laugh with these..................until next time!!! 

INCREIBLE (means incredible in spanish)

Who wants to see more Mexico pics????

ME!!!!

WHO looks Scared of the fishies????

Ocean Trampoline!!!

Very hard to even stand up!!

Did I mention very hard :)

Ummmm........ almost giving up, just more fun to laugh!!!

Hey we got up, steady now....

Not so steady :(

The boys had to join us to "show" us girls how it's done!!!

It's all good if you can grab onto someone so they hold you up!!!

Scott is making it look easy, but believe me he was having just as much trouble as me!!

This is the safest spot!!!

Ray getting ready to dive in!

Scott's dive!!!

Sooooo much fun, but sooooo much work just trying to stand up, I don't think we actually "jumped" on the trampoline, there were some kids that came over to help us out as well (sad), but on a good note, I got a serious ab workout due to laughing so hard.  I think I will stick to my version of a water trampoline aka sprinkler under a sturdy trampoline!!!

Dinner at the Italian Restaurant

The one thing I disliked the most was that our cameras had to acclimate everytime we went outside or in because of the intense humidity, so this picture would have been way awesome if not for the foggy camera :(  but you can all imagine how beautiful it is right???  :)

 

 

MAGNIFICO!!!

More Pics YAY!!!

Another Ocean View, incredible huh!!!

Home sweet Home!!!

Scott said I look like MaryAnn from Gilligan's Island??

Havin' fun

Lookin' good ;)

(.......handcarts???)

Ray attempting to climb the tree to get us some coconuts............um not climbing high enough!!!

Hey we got some anyway!!!

(the coconut milk inside was about 90* but it was still nice to have a fresh coconut, and we sure look cute drinking them!!!)

Mel and Misty

Natural Ocean Pool

What a beautiful Day!!!

Fantastico!!!

YAY!!! I Love trips down memory lane!!!

Us in the Ocean, aren't we cute!!!!

(this is how clear the water was........beautiful!!!)

 

Seriously Mesmerizing!!!

 

Scott helping me with my life jacket :)

Our Catamaran ride, I could have stayed in the ocean all day, I have never seen such beautiful, clear water it was truly a wonder to behold!!!

Water Aerobics...........
with 24 hr. Room Service and non stop Pina-Colada (virgin) drinks, this was a must!!!
(Cassie are you proud of me?)

Massages on the beach, seriously a MUST, it was so incredibly awesome to be getting a massage and listening to the waves crashing just a few feet from you, the wind in the Palm trees and the birds soaring above you, so relaxing and heavenly!!!

Scott and Melanie - Misty and Ray

This is just a sampling of our first day, I was so overwhelmed with the beauty of it all I literally could have just sat and watched the ocean forever, we were in Paradise and it was so fun to be completely spoiled and pampered, I love going on Vacation with Scott, we get to re-connect and actually have a conversation that is not interupted multiple times, and we get to be the kids and do what we want to do, when we want and how we want!!!
