Mexico

My wife and I just returned from a wonderful week in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. For our wedding we were given 1 week to use
at a time share compliments of an aunt and uncle. Now that's one awesome wedding gift. But when do you use something like that? As we got to thinking about the next 10 years of life, Lord willing, it will be filled with screaming little kids who fill up this house. With that image in our head we opted not to wait any longer! One much needed peaceful moment before our whole world gets turned upside down with a little one. Ends up the timing couldn't have been much better for several reasons. Here are some pictures from our trip that during these could days of winter will warm you up. You might have a tendency to get jealous... and well I don't blame you, because it was awesome.

We went to the restaurant that was on a hill the overlooked the city and the sea. When I say hill what I really mean is Mountain. The view was breath taking. Pictures don't do this place a bit of justice. It was a great night, until we got home and settled up with our taxi driver?! It cost like 2 million dollars for him to drive his car to the top. Next time I'm going to hire some Sherpas and just spend a day scaling this mountain to get to the restaurant.

Our hotel was pretty great as well. It had its very own water slide. So what if it was for children 5 and under. That wasn't going to stop this overgrown kid. I'm on vacation!

All and all we are so blessed to have been able to go on this vacation. It was great to rest and grow closer with my wife aside from the business that seems to fill our lives here in Ames. It's great coming back refreshed physically as well as spiritually. Oh and coming back tan is a plus too.
