Somehow we talked my parents into watching the kids for an entire week while Matt and I met my TCU friends and their husbands in the Maya Riviera. We had so much fun. It was just so fun to sit on the beach, have food provided for me every day, sleep in and be with good friends. The place that we stayed - Riu Palace Mexico was nice, but the rooms were a little weird and got tiresome after the week. Other than that, no complaints!

| Red really wanted the girls to get some professional pics taken - these are a few shots. I wish we had had more without our sunglasses, but they turned out pretty cute. I just love the girls so much! |
 |
| The whole group - we marveled how blessed we were to have such good friends that we could travel with. The guys all get along really well, too. |

| One day we left the property and went to this cool place called Xel Ha. Lots of locals and tourists were there. They had snorkeling, zip lines, and walking trails. It was hilarious that we all walked around all day in nothing but our bikinis. I actually loved getting to do that! Mandy and Shane had already gone back to Austin so they missed this part of the trip. |
 |
| There were spots along the way that you could get pics taken |
 |
| Awesome zip lines |
 |
| This is cracking me up |
 |
| Don't forget the iguana |
 |
| Hilarious shot of us |
 |
| The whole gang snorkeling. |
 |
| Matt and me upon arrival. It was so glad to be there. Let the vacation begin! |
 |
| Catching up with my BFF, Alison. She can make me laugh so hard |
 |
| The food was really good! It was so fun to just sit at a table and TALK and have no agenda or place to be |
 |
| The water was gorgeous the first day - then some seaweed settled in for the last couple days |
 |
| We would dress up every night for dinner. So fun! |
 |
| Red coordinated these shirts for us. I think they are adorable. |
 |
| My girls! |
 |
| The boys! |
 |
| This is how we spent A LOT of our time |
 |

 |
| Matt, me, Anna, Sam and Brian all went deep sea fishing one day. It was quite the harrowing experience. The water was VERY ROUGH and tested my equilibrium quite a bit. |
 |
| Sam was turning green at this point but hid it pretty well |
 |
| Fishing off the back. It was so rough that the fishing was not that good. |
 |
| Thankfully Sam pulled in this sail fish or we would have been disappointed! |
