7 days in paradise!



Well we survived 7 days of fun in the sun! It was heaven. We stayed 7 days and nights in an all inclusive resort on the Riviera Maya 2 hours south of Cancun. We went with my sister-in-law Dawn, brother-in-law Chad, and friend Becca. We had 1 1/2 hr massage at the spa, went on a jungle ATV tour, snorkeled in the cenote, kayaked in the gulf of Mexico, ate the most wonderful food, drank margaritas on the beach, broke toes playing soccer, read a great book, saved several tiny hermit crabs from certain death, watched my husband impersonate David Hasselhoff, found a kitty and named him Jorge, beat everyone in a game of Rummy, and enjoyed every minute of it! Here are just a few of our pictures...

McKenna's new toy

So Casey and I always said we would never let our kids have their own computers in their rooms because we wouldn't be able to monitor their "surfing" as easily. So call me weak! McKenna's grandma Carol offered her old one to her and we couldn't refuse! She is not allowed Internet access in her room but it is rigged with all her favorite games, a typing teacher, and windows where she can write her stories for hours without tying up the family one. She loves the fact she and have her own background and screen saver. She can also listen to CD's and her MP3 player on it. Thank you Grandma Carol!!! You made this little girl a very happy camper!

Flashback......

So I thought I'd entertain with some pics I found while cleaning out the hall closet. I always see these flashback blogs and thought how funny it would be to open someones blog and see a goofy pic of yourself at 15! So here are Ryan and I and the last day of 9th grade. Don't you love the Sally Jesse Raphael hair and glasses! (Ryan, just be happy I haven't whipped out the prom pic yet!) We went to the mall and Sizzler for lunch so we could sign every ones yearbook.
Ahhhh to be young and stupid! So I will try to find some other fun pics from the past so I can not only humiliate myself, but also those I love! (Ryan, Jayne, Tony, Randy, I'd be scared if I were you!)
