Cancun-Day 3

Our third day in Cancun we went to Isla Mujeres. First we got on a boat and it took us across the ocean to the island. The boat ride was really fun! The guys sang and danced, and there were two guys who re-inacted Jack and Rose from Titanic, wearing wigs, hanging over the front of the boat, and all, while another guy had a microphone and was saying their parts. It was hilarious, I wish we would have taped it. When we got there we hung out at the hotel there, played water volleyball, layed out, ate, rode a little boat and bike in the water. Sean and Bree rode a kayak. Bree and I got henna tattoos, which only lasted about 5 days instead of 3 weeks.Then about 4 hours or so later, we got back on the boat, and it took us to another part of the island where the shops and stuff were. We payed 10 dollars to ride a scooter around the island for an hour! It was really fun, though scary taking pictures when brian was driving so fast. We drove and ended up at the hotel we had just came from, so we stopped and the boys jumped in the pool and then we left again. While we were waiting for the boat to come back to get our group, it started raining which felt really good cause it was hot outside. When we got back to the resort we decided that we wanted to try and stay in the new part of the resort that was just built, so Brian called and they said yes! We packed up and moved over to our new rooms(pics below). We got ready and we out to dinner.

As soon as we got to the Island we tried out these hammocks

This was the best breakfast I had the whole trip. I was delicious!! And it was on the beach!

Brian, Sean, and Bree played volleyball in the pool at the hotel there.

Cancun trip

Our Cancun trip was soo much fun, we loved it! We took a million pictures so I'm putting them up at seperate times. The slideshow below is from the first and second day. The day we left was actually our two year anniversary 7-7-09! We didn't plan for it to be out anniversary trip it just happened to land on that day. Anyways, our plane was delayed so we got there a little later than expected. We just checked in, got our rooms, planned for the week, and ate. The first full day we just hung out at the pools and got drinks all day, and ate!! Enjoy!

Our latest trip to Pacific Grove

Last week we went up to Pacific Grove for my sister-in-law's graduation. The weather was great and we had a great time. Of course on our drive up we stopped at the Gilroy outlets like we do every time, and got to the house around 9:30pm. The next day we spent the majority of it looking for camp sites for the camping trip that the young men in our ward are going on. There were some great sites that looked like fun with rivers and huge trees. The last place we went was cool cause it had a waterfall and you had to go through a 20 ft. tunnel in the mountain to get to it, as you will see in the pics below. The other scenery pics were takin on this day too. We also went to a private beach that you have to pay to go to,but it was awesome. There weren't many people there and it was a great place to relax. The next day was Olivia's highschool graduation. It was nice, but Brooklyn was being a pill so I stood up with her during the ceremony and missed the girl that fell three times. Talk about embarassing. Other family came as well so afterward we went back to the house and had dinner which was really good. The next day we left around noon and came home. The first two pics were at my parent's house, the first one takin for her ten month shoot! The last pic was at Brian's grandparent's house, she had a blow-out just before we were leaving so she had to get a bath!

Brooklyn loves the water and she loves to eat it!

Our trip to St. George

We went to St. George over Memorial weekend for Brian's friend's wedding. We stayed at Sunni and Nick's, only they weren't there, they were in Cali. We got a little taste of what it's like to come home to a real home, and we can't wait to get our house and have more space. Brooklyn crawled all over and enjoyed it too, and it was the first time she slept in a crib and in a different room and she did just fine! The weather was so nice, sunny and breezy, hot at times, but really nice. The temple is beautiful and the reception had the best entertainment ever. The bride is Somoan and her family is super talented, there were about 12 different acts, singing, dancing, traditional things. We had a great time. We drove home on Monday and it took forever so we stopped at the outlets at state line to let the traffic die down, and to shop of course. We got home at about 1 am.

Priceless

Brooklyn with an attitude

Grumpy

Brooklyn update!

Brooklyn went to the doctor the other day for her 9 month check up. She is a whopping 15lbs. 14oz. and 27 in. long. She loves to wave, yelp, and eat popsicles..especially the lifesaver kind. She loves to climb up and stand holding on to the couch or table and tries to takes steps. She also loves to leap over my lap in the morning while I'm doing my make-up and try to eat my brushes, sharpeners, pencils, and lamp cord, which is why I put her in the pack n' play as you can see below (she's trying to escape).

"Let me out, I promise I will be good," is what she's trying to say.
"Hi Mom!!" 

too cute!
this is her yelping with excitement

Can't get enough
Yumm!
