Summer Trips

So this summer we decided to have a three week vacation extravaganza! We spent the first week on a cruise in Mexico with our friends Stacey and Jeff. We went to Cabo and Ensanada. Surprisingly we both enjoyed Ensanada more than Cabo. This might have had something to do with the fact that is was COLD in Cabo. When we got to Ensanada we rented scooters and went across town the the world's largest natural blow hole. We had so much fun looking through the shops there. We ate at this place that tried to give us margaritas instead of the jaimaica drink the guys ordered. All in all my favorite night on the ship was the formal night. We all got dressed up and had a nice dinner. We tried to go outside after dinner to take pictures, but is was really windy and cold.

Week two of our vacation was in Washington D.C. for my sister's wedding. We spent one day going downtown D.C. and looking at the monuments. We definitely could have spent a couple more days down there to see more sights. We stayed in old town Alexandria, which is now one of my favorite places! It was so beautiful and there was so much to do. One night my brother, Michon, Maddie, Brad, and I went down to a place called Bugsy's pizza for dinner. It was the best pizza I have ever had. If you are ever in Alexandria you must try this place. My sister Schelley got married on Saturday the 21st in the D.C. temple. She was absolutely gorgeous of course. I am really excited to have Nestor as my new brother in law.

Our final week of vacation was spent with Brad's family in Tennessee. It was really nice to have a relaxing week playing many games of rook with Brad's parents. I must say Brad's dad and I won every one : ) Being there made me realize how much I want to move there once Brad graduates in December. While we were there Brad's sister Jenny had her son's baby blessing. We were both excited to be apart of that.

We had a great three weeks, but I think we are both excited to be back in our apartment.
