Merry Christmas!

Vacation Land

Wow, coming back to cold Indiana after sitting on the beach in Mexico is not fun but getting warm hugs from my boys is!
We had a great time in Cabo celebrating our 10th Anniversary a little early. We stayed at an all-inclusive called the Riu Palace and loved it. The food was great and always there and the fruity drinks were free! :)
A couple of days we just hung out at the pool or the beach and relaxed. One afternoon we took a glass-bottom taxi boat to Lover's Beach and the famous Cabo arch and watched the sunset over the Pacific Ocean...Gorgeous! I braved playing in the waves and got sand under my eyelids, embedded in my scalp and in little pockets of my swim suit I didn't know existed. They really aren't kidding about the strong undertow!!! One day we ventured into Cabo San Lucas via local bus, there were no chickens on the bus but we definitely got a taste of the local flavor when we were pretty much dropped off in the middle of who knows where and couldn't find it on our map. Luckily a kind local pointed us in the right direction. I think he could tell that we should be sent directly to the Flea Market and Cabo Wabo. My favorite thing we did was an excursion where we Zip lined, rock climbed and repelled. It was a rush trying all these new things and I would do it again in a heart beat. Even though it was fun, it is good to be home.

Pics

Love this picture, they actually look like they like one another

My Three Men.

Family Pic for Christmas card

Cooper's 7 year photos (a little late)

I take their picture in Dan's white shirt every year so I can see how much they have grown.

I remember when you couldn't even see his legs in this shirt!

Halloween

That's MY MAN :)

The boys trick-or-treated with friends Jack and Claire

Mackey didn't mind the icky part of cleaning out the pumpkin

Cooper wasn't so hot on it!

Fall Break

Over Fall Break we visited with both sets of Grandparents

We also went to Cataract Falls and were able to actually walk across the Falls since the
water level was so low.

Do You See The Family Resemblance?

Mackey in a sweet little girl's wig...isn't' he pretty.


















Dan in the same wig...not so pretty.


















Dan's dad Bud, in the wig that his sister sent him from California...still not so pretty, but can you see the resemblance? Look at those eyes!

















Almost back to normal. Since Dan's parents didn't get a granddaughter from us this picture is probably as close as they will ever come :)
