Mexico

We went on a cruise to the Mexican Riviera with all of my fabulous family. And although I stressed the ENTIRE time about having enough to do for my energy filled son and worried about Mexicans stealing my kids,falling off the boat : ) getting my kids to eat stuff other than ice cream, and losing my vision with the sea sick patch( I could not read anything)... We had a great time!!




You think he stayed here long??!!

Makenzie LOVED the Sand!!! She would just run her fingers through it over and over. I loved cleaning it out of her diaper hahaha

This guy was diving from 45ft high into 6 feet water. They would sit and wait and time it just right.



You can see how shallow it is.

Tai getting a taste of the annoying people who hound you over and over to buy something. Grandma gave in and bought Parker some sunglasses.


A lighthouse in the distance in Mazatlan!

Tai held one of them. That one is on the video camera. Lance had his on his head. Their names were Obama and McCain. Isn't that just clever.....

Ross, Mayra, Jonathan and Laura actually did this, (Para sailing) though this is not them. They went far out and I couldn't tell which boat was theirs.

Our Boat!! The Norwegian Star! Usually takes about 2300 passengers, our trip had 2700 the captain told us!

Meet John!! Sharla's new Beau, he's been getting a nice taste of the Nutty Clan!

In Cabo San Lucas!

My baby girl's cute chubby feet!

Nap Time! The only picture we got of these two together I think.

The waves were so much better in Puerto Vallerta. The guys body surfed forever. Jonathan broke his finger on one ride in. Too bad I didn't get a picture. It was nasty!!

My boys doing what they do best. Playing!!!!

Beautiful Sunsets!! Which unfortunately I never saw, cause I was so drugged and in bed. Hahahaha
Our kids all did amazing.
Tai sang in the kid talent show in front of 100 + people which surprised me. He sang "All the small things" by Blink 182. I know we are such awesome parents! : ) He was awesome! He made some new friends, loved to sit in the hot tub with his little smoothie, (I have to find that picture) and never stopped going the entire week!!!
Parker who I was most worried about enjoyed every minute! He ate the best at every meal, was standing watching out the window when we flew, (i thought he would scream) played the longest in the sand, and was very obedient.
Our little Kenzie took everything in stride, like she always does. She often asked for her bed when we would get into our room, she was so pooped. She tried many a new foods, and got stopped by several people on the boat telling us she was just so darling! Which I always love!
As for Lance and I- we had lots of fun watching all the drunk people and taking care of all the money : ) but five people in our room for 7 days....we are ready for any offers on babysitters!!!

You've got to be kidding me!!!

Guess what!!! Its not over!! You know,the never ending weirdness of the evil sick monster that has hit our house. Tai just came running in from his room half asleep and puked all over he floor, steps away from the bathroom. I just sat there and watched and yelled ( not at him) NO NO NO, WHY WHY WHY!!???! Then I got tears in my eyes and almost started crying, followed by immediate laughing. Seriously!?! This cannot be happening!
Yesterday Lance was on the couch all day, couldn't move a muscle and Kenzie was up from 3:30-6:00 AM throwing up every 10 minutes. I am not making this up, we timed it.

We cant figure out what it is or how to get rid of it. I have washed everyones beds more than a dozen times, and have Lysoled every inch of our house. Not exaggerating there either. I am going CRAZY!!! You want to know the last time no one was sick at our house? January 13th. That's right almost a whole month.
I haven't gotten any of it which means I probably will this coming weekend when I am supposed to be enjoying the glorious sunshine of Mexico!!!

I apologise for those visitors who have come to say hi or get help with Taxes. I am deeply sorry if you get sick. I have assumed week after week that we are in the clear, but nooooooooooo. Such luck hasn't come our way! : )

Anyways, thanks for letting me vent! I have needed someone to talk to! : ) Now excuse me while I go start my #47 load of laundry of PUKE FEST 2009.
