We had often talked about a tropical winter vacation but had never made it happen. After last year's Christmas vacation that included a hospital stay, catheter bags, and sitting still.....we decided this was the year to make it happen!
We got to Cancun around dinner time on the 20th and headed straight to the beach!
We immediately decided we had made a great decision! Can't beat palm trees with Christmas lights!
The kids wasted no time checking out the pool and the beverage service! Many Cokes were had.
Sunrise out our window the first morning. You can't beat a 7:15 sunrise!!
Our neighbors! We took MeMa and PaPa along and they had the room next door.
Perfect little beach bum!
My phone had been having trouble with enough space for pictures so I got a new phone before the trip and made sure to take advantage of it! The kids were good sports about all the pictures...especially Taylor!
Rough life! And more Coke!
Dave tried out the water aerobics class.
The food was quite a sight! Unfortunately it always looked better than it tasted! We certainly didn't starve to death though!
Fancy food just confuses me. The mashed potatoes were delicious. All 3 bites of them that someone wasted time rolling up into my carrots!!!
prettiest water I've ever seen!
We decided this is the best type of Christmas tree!
"Bad as I guana be!"
Chase entered the basketball competition!
The entire lobby was open air. No front door at all, just wide open!
Hotel pets!
Definitely a cool experience!!!
Poolside with snacks to round out the day!
A little tennis before dinner to burn some calories!
Taylor enjoyed that you could ask for whatever you want and it would appear! This was hot chocolate in a fancy cup for the "princess" as our waiter said. Back to reality now, making her own hot chocolate!
It was an awesome trip and the perfect pre-Christmas tradition to start, in my opinion!! We got home Christmas eve at 3pm and hopped right into the normal Christmas festivities!
