Finally!. . . It's Easter

Sorry it has taken me so long to post this but we did have our first Easter at Jenn and Dave's house in Ca. the day before we left and it was a blast. Jenn was so good to get Tavis an Easter gift and do an egg hunt and everything. I video taped it and they took a ton of pictures. Thank you Jenn and Dave! You guys really made that week fun and special for us and especially for Tavis.

When You Fall Alseep Like This. .

Tavis insists that he sleeps in the very top corner of his bed. No matter how far he set his away from this corner he always seems to find it. So when you fall asleep like this
You wake up like this. . .

Baby Animal Days

A few ladies and I went down to the Heritage Center in Logan where they have baby animal days where the kids can pet all the baby animals and ride ponies and donkey and they give tours of the old log cabins and the food cost an arm and a leg. We had so much fun. Tavis just about killed a chick as you can see in the picture where I am freaking out because he has the chick in a kung fu hold by the neck . . . we saved it. He loved the ducks, they were quacking and quacking and it made him just giggle and he keep trying to get there beeks with his lobster fingers (he tries to grab everything now with his thumb and pointer we call them the lobster fingers). He grabbed all the ears of any animal he could but all in all he loved it and it was so fun to see!

Swimming with the Dolphins

This was so much fun! This was one of my favorite things on the whole trip! It was so fun to see my mom and dad enjoy it so much as well! Really excatly like i thought it would be! Nathan loved this adventure as well! I think the zip line was his favorite though.

Puetro Vallarta

Well, This was the most fun stop I think. We first went to swim with the dolphins and the went to the zip line tours. We traveled in this yellow truck and let's just say I thought that day would be my last. We all think utah drivers and california drivers are bad just go to mexico! We were running red lights and making 3 and four lane out of 2 and the truck, well i think it needed a check up! If you look closely you will see little hand loops to hang on to inside the truck and they were very much needed!! AHHHHH! The zip line pictures are coming in the mail so we will have to wait for them.

Mazatlan

We went Kayaking around some private island you will see in the back of the picture. I thought we were going to go on the island and hike there but no we just go around it and come back. Nathan and I did really well, and for some reason Nathan thought it was some kind of race and we couldn't be last not could he let anyone beat us. . .whatever! We then went to a place for lunch and they took us on these weird wagon like things through the town and it was heart breaking to see the way these people lived. We had a great time and Nathan Alex and Joy were able to buy new sunglasses for a real bargain! Oh yeah I had to buy a hat because I had fried my scalp already!

Snorkeling

In cabo we went snorkeling with little under water sea doos. We were able to swim in the midst of two different schools of fish and I was able to see plenty of blow fish and other fish i had no idea what they were? It was fun and I was thrown into the coral reef and it scratched my leg pretty bad and it was worth it! I did have an underwater camera so here's some sights on the way there.

Lovers Beach

We're Back and Better Than Ever!

WOW! We had the best time! This is going to be the first of many entries due to the plentiful amount of experiences these last couple of weeks. First will come the cruise and then the activities on the cruise and then sea world and then an update of everything so . .

The Cruise:
Wow!!!! Amazing!!! We both had just an amazing time and ate like we hadn't seen food in years! The food was delicious Nathan was finally able to try lobster (A tribute to Brandon nate's brother) and it was as good as Brandon had described it to be. The deserts were to die for and the service was fantastic. We were so spoiled! We loved our room with our balcony, every morning we opened the door to smell to ocean air. . .it was beautiful. having my family around was a blast of course there was always somebody to hang with and laugh with. We went to many of the comedy shows and talent shows which we enjoyed. There is plenty of demonstrations going on like ice sculptures, fruit carving, ext. and we really enjoyed sitting by the pools and just hanging out. Oh we loved our massages!! First we went to cabo san luca then to mazaltan then to puerto vallarta. I will first give you pictures of the cruise ship.
