We're Back

We're Back!  And man, did we need a vacation!  Getting away for a few days was definitely a great way for us to relax......spend some quality time......clear our heads.....and remember why we got married in the first place!  We had a wonderful time in Los Cabos, Mexico.  We love Cabos because it is so beautiful and relaxing.....and it is only a 2 1/2 hour flight from Salt Lake City.  A short flight is a good flight....that's what we always say!

We stayed at the Riu Palace Los Cabos and it was actually pretty nice.  This is a picture of the lobby, although the pic doesn't really do it justice.  I took a bunch of pictures of the hotel because I think it's fun to go back through the pictures later and remember where you stayed and what the place looked like.  I have a very poor memory....Spencer can attest to that.

This is a picture of the Pool area.  We spent about 99.9% of our time here.  We pretty much slept, ate, swam.....and slept some more...... all while lounging around the pool.  Ya!  It was awesome.  On the rare occasion that I take a nap at home, I am usually interrupted by one of my children screaming.  Usually it's Ava and she is screaming, "MOM!.....I'M DONE!.......COME WIPE MY BUTT!"  Gotta love that girl.

Another picture of the pool area.  I think it's quite pretty.

This is our room.

This is the view from our room.  It was supposed to be an "ocean view suite".......and If you look really closely........way to the back of the picture.....you may be able to make out the ocean.  Pretty funny.

Me and the hubby.....catching some rays at the beach.  I just love this guy.

I woke him up from his nappy nap.  He He He.

Spence....packing to leave.  The 4 days we were there came and went way too fast.

Ok....so our trip didn't totally go off without a hitch.  First of all, I got stung by a blasted bee....minor incident compared to the one I am about to share with you.  This one totally makes my "10 most embarrassing" list.

So we were sitting outside enjoying a nice dinner at a nice restaurant.  The mariachis had just finished serenading us....there was romance in the air.  Then out of the corner of my eye I noticed a little girl playing by the edge of the patio. (I took a picture of the ledge so you could get a better idea).  Well, the little girl lost her balance.... and I attempted to be a hero.  I quickly scooted my chair back so I could stand up and rescue her.  Well, I scooted my chair back a teensy bit too far and the back leg went over the patio ledge..........and I went with it....chair and all..........arms flailing......legs in the air.......right into the bushes.  Good thing I wasn't wearing a skirt.

Now I'm not sure exactly, but I would estimate that a good 50 people witnessed my fall.  Thank you Spencer for helping me up.  You are a gentleman. 

As for the little girl, she wasn't hurt........just a little frightened...............of the clumsy spastic lady flailing around in the bushes.
