Cancun Baby!!!!

Justin and I went to Cancun for our 10 year anniversary in Dec.  We were gone for 7 days, 6 nights in paradise.  We have never done anything like this.  Our trip usually consist of a weekend of softball in St. George, which is super fun, but just not as exotic.  Our honeymoon was 7 days but only in Heber in the wintertime. Again, paradise but not exotic.  It was everything I could have hoped for.  We spent days just laying on the beach.  Justin would have gotten bored of course so he read an entire book, built a sandcastle, played with a volleyball, looked for crabs and lizards and sea shells (just as a "little kid" would do) but I just sat, and sat, and stared at the ocean, and soaked up the sun, and sat, and slept, and sat, and soaked up the sun.  Didnt think about anything. It was so wonderful.  Then we also escaped the resort and got a little activity and culture.  We drove through the town of Playa Del Carmen and was able to see the city on our way to two different excursions.  Tour 1 we went snorkeling with sea turtles, then cenote snorkeling (in a cave), then ziplining through the jungle and then repeling.  It was super fun and cool.  Tour 2 we had a guided tour through some ancient Mayan ruins called Tulum and then spent the afternoon on a beach called Paradise Beach, and it was.  We loved spending so much time together and we were ready to see the kids again by day 6 and 7.  Ten wonderful years!!!! It has gone fast.  I feel lucky to be married to such a wonderful man.

Bre I'm so jealous! Your trip looks awesome! I would totally do the same things as you. Sit and think about nothing. How often do we moms get to do that--never. So glad you had a great time! I'm excited to read all your blog posts.
BTW I made a book out of my blog--it was about 5 years worth of posts for $60. BEST journal ever!
