Mexico, Mexico and more Mexico!

Ok so I know there are a ton of pictures, but it was a really fun trip and I wanted you all to be there with us. Please keep going down and you will read a little bit about the trip.




















Mexico here we come!!!!!






Mexico here we are! So thanks so a wonderful Aunt Amber and a really fun husband who needed a vacation REALLY bad we flew off to Mexico with a three week notice!!! Thanks to Grandma Dallas for taking Emily and a couple of neighbors and friends who stepped to help. Now on to the vacation! It started off a little windy!!! Tropical storm Alex was making his appearance on our first two days there but it was fun to play in the rain and the wind!!! We did not let him stop us. It did get better throughout the week. We visited Tulum, Coba, and a couple of cenotes. The Grand is our favorite. We also spent time at Akumal beach swimming with the turtles and enjoying the sunshine in the backyard with the pool and beach all together. We could have stayed forever, however we missed Emily so we had to come back. We had a great time and I will not go on forever with all the details, but you can enjoy a bunch of the pictures!




Summer Days!




Ok so lets just say life in not fair!!!! I was busy upstairs doing moms jobs while Aubrey was busy doing what Aubrey does best in the late afternoons! Yep that is my pile of laundry and that is her sleeping away the day on the family room floor!!! I wish I had her life! The other picture is just of my cute kids, Spencer always with his shirt off, Ryan always with a soccer jersey on, Aubrey with her ballet outfit and Emily just hanging out. Yep that is what the foursome looks like most days!!!!

Swimming!



Swim lesson this year were at the new club we joined, the Life Center. Loved the lessons and the kids did to. They all learned a lot and Ryan and Aubrey loved being in the same class, although they are still on different swimming levels they loved it. Spencer was in a great class that taught stroke techniques and he became a much better swimmer in a short amount of time. Emily sat on the sidelines and was a good happy girl watching everything.


Got some catching up to do!


Aubrey performed in her first dance concert as a sugar cube in Beauty and the Beast. Yep on her head is a halo of sparkly sugar cubes!!! Her and her best bud Reagan did a great job and oh boy was it funny!! They had boxes that they dance in and around and it was fun to watch and made me happy for a little girl.
