Mexico

Here are some of our pictures from our fabulous trip to Mexico! Oh yeah, and my brother's wedding. :) We had such a wonderful time, it was great to spend a whole week with the whole family, friends and Katie's family and friends. The wedding was absolutely gorgeous. The day was really hot, but by the evening it had cooled off and actually looked like it might rain! It never did, but probably saved everyone from heat stroke! The flowers were beautiful, the music was fantastic, and Katie looked gorgeous. My brother sang a song to her during the dance, which I missed because I was feeding the baby! They are a wonderful couple, and we're so glad to have Katie as a part of our family.
We had a fun week of relaxing by the pool, shopping, looking for sea shells and just enjoying the nice weather and good food. Jocelyn was a super traveler - she did great on the plane and adjusted well to the warm weather. Kailee had a blast and lost 2 teeth while we were there - the Mexican tooth fairy came and brought her Pesos! We have literally thousands of pictures from everyone, but here are just a few....

One of the people in town let them borrow their donkey for the day....


Proud parents
Me and Katie

Rylan, Katie's nephew, released 2 doves - it was so cute! He had to jiggle them around to get them to fly away, I'm sure the poor things were scared to death....


Mr. & Mrs. Bergner!

This is wonderful - swimming outside in January!

All tired out



Kailee found a live sand dollar




The view from our room - does it get any better than this?

At the airport when we arrived - she'd never experienced warm weather before! She loved being outside and now I really can't wait for summer.



Rylan - Katie's nephew and Kailee were inseperable the whole week. He's 2 1/2 and thought Kailee was the best thing ever. It was great for her to have someone to play with too, plus she loved all the attention!



The boys went deep sea fishing and Jonathan (Katie's husband) caught one of the 2 sail fish. Our caretakers made it for us for dinner on Thursday night, and it was delicious!

The sunsets were beautiful

Jocelyn loved her travel bed.

Great pictures! Love the one of you and Jocelyn sleeping together - SO cute! Oh, tell Kailee that Rylan has been saying "pinta" instead of "peanut"! He misses her!
