On this day we went to one of the hotels on the Cancun strip for the day. This is where the water is beautiful! We walked from the one resort down the beach for about 25 minutes until we got to another resort. When we got there it was pretty crowded so we got back on the bus and went back to our resort. We hung out there and played golf, and connect four, went swimming, then that night got ready and went out to dinner. After dinner we went to the club to people watch, which was pretty funny. These pictures are out of order cause I don't feel like rearranging,and forgot to put them up right in the first place.

Brooklyn's 1st Birthday!!!
Brooklyn's birthday was on August 8th ( Happy birthday Lydia!) and it was a lot of fun. But boy has time flown by. I can't believe she's 1!The night before starting around 9:30 my mom and sister helped me make the cakes, and there were 5 of them, which lasted until 2:30 am. Brian and I actually left at 2 and my mom said she would take the last one out of the oven for me so that we could get Brooklyn home and everything. The next morning I picked up Bree at 8 and we all decorated the cake until 11:30...when the party started! It was well worth it cause it turned out cute, and may I add that it was my first cake to make and decorate! Thanks to everyone for your help!! Brooklyn was a little overwhelmed by all the people there and so she just stared and didn't look too happy in some of the pics! Enjoy!!
This picture is from her 12 month doctor visit and I just thought it was so cute
The princess was the last to arrive to her party

Cancun Day 5
On Saturday we went to Tulum, the Mayan temples. You walk through this little wall and there is this city inside- pretty cool. We took the tour and lost our guide because we kept stopping to take pictures, but we found him again, and ended up at the cliff with the beach below. Sean was sick that day so he didn't go into the ocean. We were only in there of about 15 minutes when the storm came and the lifeguard made everyone get out. Well the storm was pretty intense and the rain and sand hitting us from the wind hurt. Sean said he would meet us at the front and we stayed and took some more pictures. Then when we tried to get out of the city wall, there was a group of tourists waiting to come in, but they were standing under the opening in the wall, starring at us as the rain was pounding down. It seemed pretty obvious to me that we wanted to get through the wall, but apparently they had no clue. So finally I asked them if we could get through but they wouldn't move, and it turned out they didn't speak English. So I gestured and kept talking to try and get the message across, and one lady said " You get through?" SERIOUSLY??? No, really we liked standing in the rain getting pounded by sand and just felt like starring at them all nice and under the shelter. These people were idiots. So then the two people in front leaned against the wall for us to fit through but the space was so tiny it was impossible( you can see me standing in the wall in a pic below). Finally they moved out and we were free. Then as we ran to catch the tram that took us back to the front where the buses were, a powerful gust of wind came and knocked the glasses off my head and they broke. So we get to the front and can't find Sean. Brian decided to go buy a souveniere and Bree and I kept searching through the crowds as people tried to sell us stuff. It was time to go and Sean was nowhere. Then he came out of the bus and we saw him and got on too. Well that was an interesting day, but fun and beautiful. The bus then took us to anothere Palace resort in the jungle and we saw animals and swam in the pools there.
