Ay Ay Ay

Hola! Como estas? 

Sorry I must have spent too much time practicing my Spanish while we were in Mexico! 

Yes, our crazy selves decided to take a leap of faith and take a week long Mexican vacation WITH the kids! 

Although it was extremely hot and humid we lived it up, had a great, time, showed the newbies on the trip the ropes, and really enjoyed ourselves. 

We got pretty much everything in that we wanted: 

Mango Deck - we hung out here all day. Zeke played in the waves and built sand castles while we drank, ate, bought cool stuff, and watched the competitions. Zoie slept in the stroller and we figured out a way to keep her cool......dump an Adan and Anis blanket in the bucket of beer ice water and tie it around her head and cuddle with it. What a success 


Shamu slide - while most people go back to their hotel room for a nap before a night out or dinner, we spent our time at the pool until dusk swimming and going down the shamu slide they have at our resort. Zeke was so in love with this slide and the speed it put off was ridiculous. 


Giggling Marlin - this place is famous for their upside down shots. They hoist you up by your feet and give you three shots! After I did it, I thought everyone else including Zeke would, but I was the only true champ here! 


Marina Dinners - we spent 3 night down at the beautiful marina for some delicious food! We went to a DDD suggestion, had a lot of sushi, and one night both kids were asleep and not having the be held by one of us (more on traveling with kids on another post)



Snorkeling - the snorkeling tours are always a blast both on and off the boat. This time we chose a more kid friendly boat since we were able to bring Zoie and needed some shade. Drinks were flowing, food was great, snorkeling was fun, and Zoie stayed cooler than most days! 



Swing Bar - we tried out the new swing bar they have in town. They have swings as barstools! Pretty cool idea. We didn't sit at the bar but got some chairs to relax on the beach. 


We entertained ourselves AND the kids at the same time. WIN-WIN! A lady on the plane told me once both kids have opinions it gets even harder.......

Baby Zoie and Mama's Baby Shower

This weekend was just fabulous! My mom threw an amazing and all out baby shower for this already spoiled baby girl in my belly!  When we first thought about the theme of the shower, we thought it would only be fitting to go along with the room theme which is very light pastel colors inspired by a couple vintage Barbie pictures I found (more on that later). After much deliberation, we decided to go with a more bold vintage Barbie theme with the colors being black, pink and white with a lot of Barbie silhouettes.  After a million trips to Target, Home Goods, Ikea, Etsy, Tai Pan, Michaels, and Hobby Lobby we had a nice stock pile to start the decorating and planning.  My mom decided to pretty much redecorate her house from floor to ceiling starting with drapery.  She switched out her current drapes for some black and white striped fabric. You would not believe how great the fabric looked without even being sewed!!!! They looked like they belonged.  She also changed...

Cruisin'

One of my best friends is getting married so in getting married style we had to have the bachelorette party. Her and her fiancé met on a cruise ship while both working, so going on a cruise was very fitting!  We took a short little 3 day (booze) cruise.  It was a lot of fun, my first time on ship/cruise, and I'm glad it's over.....wedding time!  Brandon had the kids all weekend and did an amazing daddy daycare job, even with activities and sports and all! He's super dad in my eyes!

Weekend project

I have had this vintage window frame for quite some time now.   I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it but have received lots of opinions and feedback on how to mount the picture. I had heard mount the picture on something sturdy before stapling it to the window, cut the picture into 6 boxes and have it touch the glass since there's a gap in the back, or my original and easy idea of just stapling the picture to the back of the window.  That is exactly what I did and it was the easiest thing ever. I cannot believe I waited so long to get it on and up!  I am completely obsessed with it and finally have a wedding picture up in our house. On to the next project......
