We're Back!

Yes, that is a cruise ship in the background. No, we were not on a cruise! We were staying at The Grand Mayan in Nuevo Vallarta, which was fabulous! More to come about the resort in another post... This picture was taken in the marina area before we boarded a smaller boat for a two hour tour of the Vallarta area and Banderas Bay. The kids LOVED the parrots!

After being in Puerto Vallarta (well, Nuevo Vallarta, actually) from May 3rd through May 10th, we are home! The trip was fabulous, but we are tired. I am looking forward to creating a post with lots of pictures about our trip to Mexico, but for now...here are just a couple pictures. I will update you more in the near future! Sunsets on the Pacific coast of Mexico are absolutely gorgeous. I just LOVE sunsets!

Mexico!!!

As I mentioned in my previous post, we are very excited about our upcoming vacation to Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico. We will fly Knoxville, Houston, Puerto Vallarta on May 3rd. Our vacation will be a full week and the kids will be going with us. I think they will have a blast in the sand and pools and ocean areas. We have been talking about a beach vacation for over a year now, and it is finally happening! All the reservations are made, airline tickets are booked, and Josiah's passport is ordered. A dream vacation is becoming a reality!!!

The resort we will be staying at is called The Grand Mayan. (That is courtesy of my mom and Mark's RCI week!) We are very thankful to have two rooms with a partial kitchen area, which will make life with the kids easier and cheaper, too. :) I don't know much else about the area yet, other than the resort is in Banderas Bay and framed with the Sierra Madre mountain range. If any of you have been to the Nuevo Vallarta or Puerto Vallarta areas, we would love ideas and suggestions of places to eat, shop, or sight see.

That's all my update for now. Enjoy the weekend!
