OHHH! MEXICO!

Well....Mike and I celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary in style this year!! We have been planning our trip to Mexico for some time now and we finally went on the coldest Minnesota week of the year!

We went to an all-inclusive resort near the Riviera Maya (a different place than our honeymoon). We also upgraded to a luxury package which included first-class seats, an individual ride to our resort (with a tour guide) and other little perks. Mike and I both agreed that whenever we do a trip like this (probably every 5 years) we will definitely to first class (it is sooooo worth it). Our resort was beautiful and the weather was great, between 80-85 every day (with the exception of a day and a half of rain). Mike and I spent much of our mornings and afternoons either having a drink in a cabana by the pool, walking along the beach or having a drink at the swim up bar. We didn't venture out much because we only had 5 nights there and we wanted to RELAX as much as possible. I can say that the only downfall of the whole trip was the Packers losing against the Giants!! You wouldn't believe how many Packer fans there were down there!! And we missed Abby of course.....Although she was on her own little vacation with both sets of grandparents. My parents stayed with her for 3 days and then Mike's parents drove up from Milwaukee to stay with her the last 3 days. It worked out great! Thank you to the grandmas and grandpas!! Before we went on our trip, Abby had tubes put in her ears (due to chronic ear infections) and that was a great blessing because we knew that at least she wouldn't have any ear infections while we were gone. Mike and I also decided that we need to do a mini-vacation every year, so the next trip will be at the end of summer and I get to plan it! We are both revitalized and love each other more than ever...
