We love Mexico!!!

January 2011
We have started a tradition with our family and some of our extended family of going on a trip every year somewhere warm while it is cold at home. This year we went to Puerto Vallarta. It was so much fun and we made some really great memories together. Dan and I took all 4 kids which should be crazy, but they were so good and loved being with their other cousins. that it was just fun. We did tons of different things. Here are some...
we played at this great surfing beach
One day some of us older kids went on this amazing excursion called Vallarta Adventures...and believe me it was a great adventure...zip lines, repelling, hiking, and much more...

Dan riding down our first zip line


Me repelling down a huge waterfall



Dan and I raced down the last zip line. Dan only thinks he beat me...as you can tell-picture proof...I clearly beat him..haha!
One of the days we went to Las Caletas and they had a kids club where the kids got to do fun zip lines, climbing walls, and walking across cool bridges.
Davin was the most daring and went upside down across his first zip line. It was awesome-NO FEAR in that kid!


Kate loved it too!



There was no way that Dax was going to get left out. There was an age limit and Dax was under it, but he really wanted to go so the awesome lady took him down one and yes-he LOVED it!


Swimming at our awesome resort



Tyse even loved it, especially splashing!



Tyse's 1st time on the beach


We took the bus everywhere, very cheap and convenient



Shopping in Old Town-we found some great deals


Kate and her cousin Maggie got their hair braided and of course Kate wanted everything her older cousin had. They hung out the whole time together and you could almost mistake them as twins.


What a fun Dad


Taking the boat out to our adventures


Watching whales-we saw lots!


This baby humpback whale kept jumping out of the water. The kids loved seeing it

and of course...we relaxed a lot

Definitely a Really Fun Adventure!
