Our Mexico Trip

We went to Mexico for "my best friend since I'm 12" Anne's wedding. Anne, Katie and I have been friends since we were in the 7th grade back in the day. I lived with Anne all through college and we've all three always stayed close. We packed up the family and brought along my parents to go to Anne and Ray's wedding in Cancun last week. She has wanted to get married on the beach ever since I've known her. It was raining so much that we weren't sure if it was going to happen. We got there Wed and it pretty much was rainy and gloomy the whole time. Someone was watching over them though, I'm not kidding when I say that the sky's parted for them to have their beach wedding. It had been sprinkling all morning. It cleared up just in time, and was beautiful. I was a bridesmaid and Elliott was a flower girl. Her third wedding of the summer, she is an old pro now. She was very excited to hear that she didn't have to wear a long dress again, and loved matching mommy.

This is all of us after the wedding. My parents were such a huge help on the trip. They worked hard, the girls stayed in their room with them. They offered and we took them up on it!



Berkley really loved watching the waves, didn't like getting her feet wet in them though. She was a little crabby when this was taken. She did enjoy eating sand though.

Elliott getting ready to hit the pool. She loved that it was one that she could walk into.
This is our group from highschool. Only Robyn, Jill and Becca are missing from the original Cancun crew.
We've figured out how to get good pictures of E, you just have to turn her upside down. She thought she was so big to be able to go to the reception with mommy and daddy while B had to go to bed. She kept asking, "why am I big enough to go to the party?"

This is B on the plane. Dad upgraded Chris and I to first class so we sat up there and enjoyed it with Berkley. They are both such good girls on the plane. Makes it easy to travel with them.


Here we are when we first got to the hotel. We figured out quickly that it wasn't safe for B to be in the sling with her klutz mommy carrying her on the wet ground. Its a miracle that I didn't fall down and break anything (besides a shoe....)
