Yeah Buddy!!!







When you were emailing us we were in Akamal, the picture of Nicki at the table is where the web cam is, you can see a white box just under the roof, while we were eating you would text ,we would run over, and you could see us. Cool huh!!! We will be there again on wednesday, so watch for us, on Akamaul web TV, text us we will run over!!!








Third day!!!!!!



So sunday we went to church, it was this quaint place that had only one other couple that was American, the bishopric toldus about the pig flu, and what not to eat. It was really neat to be there, Trent translated, and you could really feel the spirit. Then we did the blog, so everyone could see it. We then went to Talum which is the coolest place in the world, a place called La zebra. We just sat on the beach, laid in the hammock, and soaked it in. I cant tell you how cool it is here. It is just peaceful!!!!

X-elha!!!!!!! Second day!!

WE ARE HAVING THE TIME OF OUR LIVES!!!We are at X-elha it is an inlet that has jungle all around it with these amazing fish all around you, we saw alot of "Dory" fish the size of a dinner plate, they were so cute, we swam over stingray that were huge, and then we saw sea bass soooo big I had to get out of the water for a minute to catch my breath, it was the size of Naomi, I am not joking!!! It was THE COOLEST thing I have ever done!!! I even swam it a cave, FULLL of fish!!!! I have not been scared one bit, it is just too cool. And again the pictures do not do it justice!!! We feel like this is a dream, you will be hearing that alot through this week!! WE have not gotten too burned YEA!!!!!! I thought for sure we would be. Life just cant get any better than this!!!! Babies, we wrote that note just for you!!!!!


MEXICO BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




WE MADE IT!!!!!!! When we first got there they only gave us a double which we clearly could not fit into, the guy liked us so he gave us a king, and jacuzzi, and we have our own private beach that the other guests can not go, all for free!!! It is soooooo beautiful, the pictures do not do this justice. We got there just before dark, and just laid there on our little beds, and listened to the waves crashing the hotel is 10 times better than the pictures, we feel like we are in a dream. Kids, we miss you, and talk about you all the time, hope you are happy!!! Love you, Mommy

M E X I C O !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SOOOOOOOOO, Trent and I are going to Mexico tomorrow, we are bringing the lap top so we are going to do the blog while we are there. So make sure you keep looking at the blog, everyday we will have something new, we will be there till next thursday, I am soooo excited I can't stand it. We are going about an hour south of Cancun, where all the Myan ruins are in fact on sunday, we will go to church, then the ruins, it is free on sunday. The myan people are just incredible we go on the native side, Trent speaks the language, I try, only because the people are so encouraging! When we go to church Trent just translates in my ear, it is so neat to see that the church is truely the same everywhere. And the spirit is so strong, because the people are so humble, we feel totally safe there. This is the second time we have gone, it  is by far our favorite place to go!! Trent was even asked if he was Venezalen , because his accent was soo good. I didn't realize the different accents, like someone from the south or Jersey. Anyway keep on the blog so we can tell ya all about it!!

O.k this is so brilliant for Ashlyn's preschool once a month you volunteer, that way you know exactly what is going on and you become really involved, it is soo fun, just great quality time with her. My friend Jen is her teacher , and she is amazing!!! We did Easter and had a blast trying to hide the eggs, and actually remember where we hid them, THAT WAS AN EXPERIENCE!!!

Sunshine!!!!



We literally had one day of sunshine, I am so glad we took advantage of it. The kids tried to catch the ONE butterfly that had hatched a little too early, they chased it into the forest, it was really fun, they got muddy, and what better way to end the day!!!!
