Mexico 2017

The kids had a 3.5 week break from school starting at the end of Septemeber, so we decided to take a family vacation to Mexico. 

In the airport, ready to leave! The kids did pretty well on the flight acutally - yay! 

We met up with Ryan's parents - Lee & Rhonda - in Cancun, ready for a fun 5 days!

Our resort was in the jungle but had access to the beach - best of both worlds. Jaxson loved looking for shells and Griffin loved playing in the sand.

Jaxson & I racing in the kiddo pool. He won!

My cutie & I by the pool

I think the kids favorite activity by far was swimming 

Kids water olympics

We had a petting zoo at the resort & the kids loved feeding the animals.

Walking around the resort & looking at the animals & cool layout

This is how the kids slept everynight lol

A big crab we found outside our door one night.

Ready to eat yummy Japanese teppanyaki food 

yum!

One of days we visited Tulum for a few hours - really neat to walk around and see the ruins.

We saw these big lizards everywhere

After Tulum, we spent the rest of the day at Xel Ha - this place was cool!

We had fun zip lining...

jumping off cliffs (into barracuda filled waters)...

floating down the river...

swimming in caves ...

watersliding...

and snorkling. If we ever go back to Mexico, we will definitely visit that place!

The kids got some awesome face painting done at the kids club

Super Hero night show was a hit!
