Honeymoon Time



It is time to write about our honeymoon.  I wanted to keep you in suspense waiting for our pictures and also my camera broke so I couldn't get the pictures off.  Well we went to Cancun, and stayed at the Excellence Playa Mujeres Hotel.  It's not the one that Katie, Cass and Erin all stayed at, it was BETTER!  Well, I'm sure they are all wonderful and pretty similar.



This is the back patio of our hotel room.  It had a little bed outside, and then a table to eat all of our room service. Yes we ordered that everyday.  Fajitas and french fries.  Don't forget the mini fridge with sodas and candy and chips that they fill up everyday too.


Just outside Lounging, This pool was fun because there was a bar in the middle and you can get drinks.  Diet Coke for me of course :)



I only brought one dress so I will be in the outfit at all of our nice dinners.  There were like 10 different fancy restaurants to go to each night.   I think this one was seafood.  The shrimp was so good.

Our Honeymoon Suite as you can see on the sign.  They bring us a fancy bottle of Champagne that we couldn't drink.  


We played tennis like 4 days.  So hot and such a good workout.  I have my own tennis pro to teach me.  Derek is really good.  He used to teach lessons in High School, their whole family is really good at tennis.  Probably frustrating for him, but I had a lot of fun!

Kayaking 


 This was fun lying in the hammock.  I really liked these chairs in the water because when you got really hot you could put your feet down and cool off a little.  Not to mention the whole time people are coming around asking you what you want to drink.  Derek liked to ask for the non-alcoholic drink of the day.  Usually couldn't pronounce it. Pretty funny.

The whole resort was so wonderful. We had great weather the whole time.

And of course we were exhausted so we needed to take lots of naps.  In our complimentary robes.  Rough life.  

This was at the Italian restaurant and I ordered Ravioli thinking it would be safe.  Well I didn't know they would put goat cheese in it.  Good thing the bread was amazing!  Time to order room service tonight!

 This was our one day excursion. We went on a High Adventure Day.  We went Zip-lining from tower to tower. It took about 2 hours to get through all of them.  Then we went in these boat things through the caves.  Then we went four wheeling. It was really tiring. We better go back to the resort and relax a little.


Lunch time, wasn't too bad.  



 The inside was beautiful.  When we first arrived off the plane they meet you and give you a moist towel. Then they take your bags and ask if you need a drink. Quite wonderful.


Last Day before we get back on the plane.  

Enjoying my Diet Coke, In our wonderful room!


He is so handsome!



And lastly, suns out guns out shirt.  What a hunk!  I got this for him last summer, that was the motto in the house.  All the roommates (boys) would say suns out guns out and take of their shirts.

This trip was so great. It is fun to look back on all these pictures.  Great way to start off a wonderful marriage.
