We ate dinner here. It was very fancy and delicious. 
I like this picture except that plant is attacking Cory's face.
I guess they don't believe is cleaning off old candle wax drippings.
We braved public transportation in Cancun and made our way to Market 28. We had 6 other people from our group come with us. After we were done shopping we had a spot to meet at and as we were waiting this lovely women came up to us. She was selling bracelets and belts. We bought a couple of things from her and realized she had a 2 year old attached to her back and she was so short. Wow! Talk about hard work.
This was a purchase we made at the market. Cory put it on and we took a few pictures. Here he is looking through the window in the shower. The point of having the window in the shower is so you can see the ocean while showering....or have your hubby peek in on you while YOU are showering. Either way someone is getting an eye full...lol!
Cory and the boys love to have wrestle mania. The boys loved their capes and lets be honest Cory really loves his mask:) 
I meant to say Chitzen Itza. That was our destination. It's a hard name to remember so our tour guide told us the chicken pizza thing to help us remember. Which was nice for Cory:) 
We made a stop on the way there at a little strip mall of sorts. It had some stores and a place to get snacks. As you can see we got Doritos and a Milky Way. I'm just going to put this out there, the Doritos were spicy and delicious and the Milky Way was smashed. It looked as though it had been previously melted and sat on by a small child. I recommend buying vanilla in Mexico, but not chocolate candy bars. Oh, I did buy some peanut M&M's which are also safe to buy because of the thin candy shell that protects it from everything except a nuclear attack. 
We arrived via tour bus, which if I might add it was worth the extra $20 per person that we paid to have drinks and snacks served to us while on the 2 plus hour bus ride here. And we even got to watch an episode of Mr. Bean on the way home.....BONUS!
After and hour and a half of hearing from the tour guide we got to explore on our own for an hour. As of 3 years ago, they don't allow anyone up the steps because the lime stone is crumbling and it's sort of dangerous with the steps being so narrow.....bummer.
We stopped at this awesome "swimming hole" on the way back. I can't remember the name of it, but it was 95 steps down to get to. The water is 150 feet deep. There were tons of little catfish swimming with us, which was a little creepy. The water temp. was around 75 degrees which was perfect after walking around in the humid, hot weather. And in our case running at some point back to the bus. We tried to see too much in our hour of free time and that almost made us late getting back.
Or I guess you could say we screwed around too much taking pictures like this. Cory secretly wishes he lived here. 
So I braved the jump. I'm not sure how high it was 20-25 feet maybe. It was high enough to scare me and upon impact my top came partially off...good times.
Almost to sunny Mexico. We got spray tans...don't we look hot? We decided it would be better to start out a little tan rather than have a Edward Cullen pastey white look. 
We arrived at our hotel and it was incredible.
We didn't waste any time we got suited up and headed for the beach. 
Look at my tan/hot husband! 
There was a whole lotta this happening. And we only had one accidental alcohol consumption the whole week so I'd say that is par for the course in Mexico.
Looking down the beach at the long line of hotels.
The view from our room.
The next week, I'm sending Parker out the door to the school bus and this is what I see:
Walking along the streets of Cancun we come up to a woman making bracelets with her beautiful 7 month old daughter clinging to her back.
And before I know it I'm back home looking into the faces of these two gorgeous girls. This is Mataya and her cousin Lexi.
I went from drinking a diet coke poolside to... 
drinking a diet coke while sitting on the couch.
Here is my little Spencer all ready for church. He got this cool little back pack for his birthday so that's what he takes to church now. And the 65 cent, 80's inspired glasses on his head really round out his look.
