Cancun Part Dos!


The view from our balcony - AMAZING!



One family photo - self timer :)



Jeremiah can pick Sarah up - he's so proud of this!



On the way to dinner - holding hands :)




Shawn and Jeremiah did this the whole trip - 'ran away' from the waves.



Sarah found another love - the turtle!



Another lunch by the beach!



Shawn and I spent a lot of time playing with the kids - I was a 'boat' or a 'horse' a lot. It was a fantastic workout!



After naps, we went to a mall close to the resort (La Isla) and Jeremiah was wanted to jump on this - so he did!



He was going sooo high!



SHAAAAAAAAAAARK!!



Not Sarah, too! Ahhh!



At dinner, Jeremiah was eating JALAPENOS. Who is this kid??



Another family picture - pretty hilarious.



Sarah had fun with my hat.



We got frozen yogurt after dinner for the kids. They had some crazy toppings - spicy stuff, and these weird little balls that were liquid on the inside. The kids loved them.




Look at my young husband! He looks just like he did when we were on our honeymoon 6 years ago!





Our last day...(Thursday)...back at the pool!



Jeremiah requested (and received) goggles. He had such a great time 'diving' underwater.




J and Shawn were playing their running game when J took a face first dive into the sand. This was the 2nd time it happened during our trip - poor guy!



Our shadows - last time on the beach :(



Sarah cracked us up during our dinner out - we picked a great place to eat for our last meal in Cancun (La Destileria, if you're ever in the neighborhood!)



Jeremiah was also eating limes, which I guess isn't that weird. But cute picture!



The kids and I and the sunset on the lagoon.



Sarah took this photo! Not bad!



Jeremiah watched for crocodiles. (We didn't see any.)



And he ate a huge piece of chocolate cake for dessert.


It was a fantastic trip, despite the bumpy start with the weather. We had fun, rested, relaxed (as much as you can with a 2 year old and a 4 year old!) and really unplugged. I got used to not taking my phone everywhere - I didn't even look at it! We also watched very little TV, with the exception of the first gloomy day. We made some great memories. :)

Those pictures are awesome. You are brave to take that kind of trip with such little ones, but it looks like you'll be hugely rewarded with the memories. Thanks for sharing pictures of your beautiful family. That chocolate cake looked really good too!

Awesome Rach! That's crazy J did that jumper and liked it; I do that at the Renaissance Fair every year, I LOVE it! I can do flips in the air it's great. And him eating Japepenos, must just be something about Mexico! Looks like you had a great time. And I see Sarah's taken a liking to sticking her tongue out in pictures, lol, reminds me of some of our pics. Haha. Love you!
